It started out as a boxy, bland, nondescript, unmemorable small SUV .

Definitely not part of a legendary Bronco family.

And the Mustang Mach-E SUV was initially going to be a cautious toe in the water for an automaker debuting its first all-electric vehicle. It was conceived to help meet fuel economy targets for the company.

Now each SUV has a waiting list.

Owners of the 2021 Bronco Sport report being treated like Hollywood royalty. And the impressive off-road driving features have been designed to challenge Jeep and live up to the qualities that make the Bronco one of the most valuable collector cars in history.

It looks to me like the Mach-E's are stacked three high in the photo.

I got to say that there are lots of knowledgeable folks on this forum posting useful info. Thanks for helping to make our decision!
I was on the fence between Mach E, Model Y, ID.4 and Audi E-tron. The family narrowed down to mach e and model y. The pictures and story in the article tilted in MME's favor more than many of the other "quality of life" improvements that MME has.
