I test drove a premium AWD today. I really enjoyed it. It drove very well. I'm 6'2" and had plenty of room in the front seat. I did fit in the back seat but I don't think anyone taller would fit. The interior was very nice and the driver's seat very comfortable.
Updates:
Also, I haul my grandkids a lot so I actually put 3 booster seats on the rear seat. It was tight but they did fit. I wasn't brave enough to order a Mach E without driving it or seeing if I fit, but based on this drive, I probably will.
I've ridden in one but never driven one. Here are my 4 reasons I'm leaning toward a Mach E vs a model Y, which I know is a good car. I really like the body styling of the Mach E. I like having a view screen behind the steering wheel. I like getting a $7500 tax credit. My Ford dealer is 20 minutes away vs 4 hours for Tesla.
Updates:
I haven't ordered one yet, but probably will. Dealers are getting these demonstration cars. They are not allowed to sell them for 4 months. This was the first dealer in my area to get one.That's great to hear!
How did this dealer get a test car when almost everyone is waiting?
Are you planning to order one based on this? Did you already have an order?
It was very quick and had a lot of power. I wouldn't say it drove like a sports car, but it wasn't far from it. I was able to drive it on curvy roads and the interstate. I was going 65 and went to pass a car and it had plenty of power. IWould you please expand on "very well"?
