RANGE UP TO 500 KM

Standard in the Mach-E GT is an 88 kWh extended-range battery for a targeted WLTP pureelectric driving range of up to 500 km, according to the automaker, supported by Intelligent Range, which more accurately predicts how much range drivers have left – using past driving behaviour, weather forecasts and crowdsourced data from other Mustang Mach-E vehicles.

Ford also announced that the standard Mach-E, equipped with an extended-range battery and all-wheel drive, will deliver a 5.1-second zero to 100 km/h acceleration time – equal to the Tesla Model Y Long Range model – and a targeted WLTP pure-electric driving range of up to 540 km. The company’s FordPass Charging Network is also the largest network of public charging stations in Europe, and in partnership with NewMotion, customers will be able to use the FordPass app to locate, navigate to, pay for, and monitor charging at locations across 21 countries.

Ford is also a founder member and shareholder in the IONITY consortium – delivering high-power charging stations along motorway routes and at key European locations. Charging with up to 150 kW at an IONITY station, the Mach-E in extendedrange battery, rear-wheel drive configuration is estimated to add about 119 km driving range within approximately 10 minutes of charging, with a targeted WLTP pure-electric driving range of up to 610 km.
