Over the past decade, drivers have discovered the benefits of going electric. Battery electric vehicles (BEVs) provide the benefit of unchaining yourself from the gas pump, no longer having to worry about rising gas prices or local shortages infringing on your right to go anywhere you want without worrying about the cost. However, many BEVs and hybrids (which combine electric motors with conventional gas engines) only get part of the equation right.
While they provide savings through the use of efficient battery packs, older BEVs tend to be cramped compact vehicles with unexceptional performance. To get yourself out of this rut, you should consider a Ford Mustang Mach-E pre-order. This sporty, roomy, and efficient BEV sets itself apart from other models by giving you the roomy interior of an SUV with plenty of cargo space for your things while also providing the speed and acceleration which makes you realize why Ford named it after its flagship sports car, the Mustang.
At Future Ford of Sacramento, we are proud to carry a vast inventory of Ford models, including the 2022 Mustang Mach-E. This is the performance electric SUV for people who want more out of their alternative fuel vehicle than just the ability to save money by no longer buying gas. Stop in today and let our sales team show you why you should make your next BEV a Mustang Mach-E. We will be happy to work with you on pre-ordering the model that serves you best.
Range: The Mustang Mach-E Goes Farther Than Other BEVs
One issue that many BEV drivers complain about is the often short ranges of their vehicles. Sure, the EPA may say the BEV has a decent range, but when you are actually driving it on the highway with the air conditioner on, charging your devices, and using the infotainment system, you find that the range isn’t quite what you expected. As a result, you may find yourself spending more time than you want at public DC fast charging stations. Ford understands this problem, which it has addressed with the 2022 Mustang Mach-E.
Depending on which model you choose, you can get a range of over 300 miles on a full charge of the Mustang Mach-E’s liquid-cooled lithium-ion battery pack. That is enough distance to travel from Sacramento to Bakersfield without recharging. When it is time to recharge, the Ford Mustang Mach-E comes equipped with a Ford Mobile Power Cord. This gives you the ability to switch between Level 1 and Level 2 home charging by plugging into a standard 120-volt or 240-volt power outlet. Ford also gives you access to the Ford BlueOval Charge Network, so you will have no problem finding a public charger along the way for your Mustang Mach-E.
Room: The Mustang Mach-E Is Roomier Than Other BEVs
Space is the place with the 2022 Ford Mustang Mach-E. The days of the cramped BEV are a thing of the past. The Mustang Mach-E gives you the kind of passenger and cargo room you would expect in a midsize SUV with a conventional gas engine. In fact, there are 29.7 cu.ft. in the Mustang Mach-E’s trunk, so you will have no problem fitting all of your luggage for a road trip. If you want to take advantage of the utility side of the equation, you can easily fold down the rear row of seats on the Mustang Mach-E to free up an incredible 59.7 cu.ft. of cargo space. This will come in handy if you are doing some home improvement work or need to bring home some stuff from an extended shopping trip.
If you need a little more space, the Mustang Mach-E features a “frunk,” which is a portmanteau combining “front” and “trunk.” Instead of a large gas engine under the hood, the Mustang Mach-E has a convenient compartment that can fit up to 4.7 cu.ft. of stuff. This is ideal for an extra piece of luggage, a first aid kit, or even a picnic basket if you’re taking your friends out for a day trip.
As for your passengers, no one will complain about feeling cramped in a Mustang Mach-E. The roomy and luxurious interior seats up to five passengers, with front-row passengers enjoying 38.9 inches of headroom and 43.3 inches of legroom. Meanwhile, your passengers in the rear seats will be able to stretch out with up to 38.2 inches of headroom and 38.1 inches of legroom.
Radical: The Mustang Mach-E Features Cutting-Edge Technology
Ford truly pulls out all the stops on the 2022 Mustang Mach-E, starting with the 15.5-inch touchscreen and SYNC 4A infotainment system that comes standard on all models. This will make accessing your favorite apps and key vehicle information easier than ever, so you can stream all your favorite music and entertainment. The vehicle includes the FordPass Connect app, so you can connect to your Mustang Mach-E no matter where you go. Getting there will also be easier with the SYNC 4A’s Connected Built-In Navigation. This cloud-based system provides real-time updates on traffic and road closures, allowing you to reach your destination faster than ever before.
The 2022 Mustang Mach-E will also help you get wherever you are going safely with the standard Ford Co-Pilot360 2.0 suite of driver-assist technology. This includes features like a Lane-Keeping System and a Blind Spot Information System, helping you change lanes in your Mustang Mach-E safely. The innovative Evasive Steering Assist gives you the ability to steer clear of an imminent forward collision. There are over a dozen standard features in all, helping you and your passengers stay safe in your Ford Mustang Mach-E.
Ford has also made its BlueCruise autonomous driving system available on all trims of the 2022 Mustang Mach-E. This is a hands-free system that functions on highways across the country that have been properly mapped and designated as Hands-Free Blue Zones. Sacramento residents will be happy to know that these Blue Zones include I-5, I-80, and several other roads around the city. As a result, you can reduce driver fatigue on long drives, something that helps set the Mustang Mach-E apart from other BEVs.
Race: The Mustang Mach-E Delivers Performance Other BEVs Only Dream About
The Ford Mustang has been setting records as a leading sports car since it was introduced almost 60 years ago. When Ford gave its first BEV the Mustang name, it didn’t make this decision lightly. Ford knew that the Mustang brand has a certain reputation for performance, which is why the engineers at Ford have given the 2022 Mustang Mach-E such exceptional performance that rivals that of muscle cars.
The key to the performance of the Mustang Mach-E begins with its battery system. This consists of 288 liquid-cooled lithium-ion cells in the standard range models of the Mustang Mach-E and 376 cells in the extended range versions. These power one or two electric motors; one in the rear axle for rear-wheel drive Mustang Mach-E models and one for each axle in eAWD models.
Depending on which model you choose to pre-order, you are going to get out-of-this-world performance on the 2022 Mustang Mach-E. If you pre-order a vehicle with a standard-range battery and rear-wheel drive, you will get 266 hp and 317 lb-ft of torque. Choosing the standard range battery with eAWD boosts the output to 428 lb-ft of torque. If you opt for the extended-range battery, you will not only get the ability to drive farther but also have a performance boost with 290 hp in rear-wheel drive models and 346 hp in eAWD models.
The 2022 Ford Mustang Mach-E’s most outstanding performance is found in the GT trim. This trim comes with standard eAWD and an extended-range battery, as well as a serious performance boost. The Mustang Mach-E GT gives you 480 hp, 600 lb-ft of torque, and the ability to go from zero to 60 mph in an eye-blinking 3.8 seconds. The GT Performance Edition goes even further, with its 634 lb-ft of torque launching it from zero to 60 mph in a truly dizzying 3.5 seconds. Clearly, these are the two Mustang Mach-E models for folks who crave sports car performance.
The Range, Roominess, Radical Technology, and Race Car Performance You Crave
Driving a BEV shouldn’t be a compromise. You are doing your part to help the environment by reducing greenhouse gas emissions while saving money on gasoline. You should be rewarded with a BEV that delivers roominess for your passengers, range for your trips, radical technology to keep you connected, and race car performance for driving enjoyment. The 2022 Ford Mustang Mach-E delivers this for you, which is why it is unlike any BEV you’ve ever driven before.
