The Ford Mustang Mach-E has made a significant entrance into the Australian market, proving that the iconic Mustang name can be successfully re-imagined as an all-electric SUV. It’s an exciting option for Australian buyers, combining head-turning style with impressive performance and a high level of standard equipment. Ford has done a great job of offering a range of variants to suit different needs and budgets, and with some recent price adjustments, the Mach-E has become an even more compelling proposition.
Let’s break down the lineup. The entry point is the Select model, which is a rear-wheel-drive powerhouse. It’s equipped with a 72 kWh usable battery, giving it a WLTP driving range of 470 km—perfect for daily commutes and weekend errands. It’s far from basic, though, coming standard with a massive 15.5-inch portrait-oriented touchscreen, a 10-speaker Bang & Olufsen sound system, and a comprehensive suite of safety features.
If you’re all about maximizing range, the Premium variant is the sweet spot. It also features a rear-wheel-drive layout but gets a larger 91 kWh usable battery, which boosts the WLTP range to an impressive 600 km. This is the one to choose if you’re planning on frequent road trips, and it also adds some nice aesthetic touches like multi-colour ambient lighting and a distinctive alloy wheel design.
For those who live by the ‘Mustang’ performance name, the GT is the ultimate choice. This is where the Mach-E truly comes alive. It’s a dual-motor, all-wheel-drive beast with a staggering 358 kW of power and 860 Nm of torque. This translates to a blistering 0-100 km/h acceleration time of just 3.7 seconds. To handle this immense power, the GT comes standard with MagneRide adaptive suspension and high-performance Brembo brakes. While it shares the 91 kWh battery with the Premium, its performance-focused nature means a slightly reduced WLTP range of 490 km.
All Mach-E models are future-proofed with DC fast charging capabilities of up to 150 kW, allowing for quick top-ups on the go. They all come with a five-star ANCAP safety rating and a suite of advanced driver assistance systems as standard. Whether you prioritize range, features, or pure performance, there’s a Mustang Mach-E that’s ready to deliver a thrilling and practical electric driving experience.
