The electric Pony car.
Ford's "Mustang" badge is almost six decades old, but the Mustang Mach-E marks the first time the company has applied its iconic Pony car nameplate to an electric vehicle. Combining the muscular style and neat detailing of the muscle car with an SUV body and a fully electric powertrain, the Mustang Mach-E delivers strong performance from its rear-wheel and all-wheel-drive powertrains. And if there's any doubt whether an electric SUV should wear a Mustang badge, consider this: with 480 hp, the 2022 Mustang Mach-E GT and GT Performance Edition models can accelerate from zero to 60 mph in under four seconds, thanks to their 600+ lb-ft of torque (according to the manufacturer, when new). What's more, a host of connected technology keeps this Pony car up to date. While we currently do not have many 2022 Ford Mustang Mach-Es on our lots, we look forward to selling more in the future. If you love the 2022 model, you should also consider prior model years of the Ford Mustang Mach-E with similar features.
