    Model Y 40% more efficient than Mustang Mach E

    Data is never worthless. I'm just posting my data because this thread is labeled "Model Y is 40% more efficient that Mach-E". Before the Mach-E launch, sure it was speculated to have worse efficiency but 40% is drastic. But now that there are a lot of them on the road, data is coming in and...

    Model Y 40% more efficient than Mustang Mach E

    I second this! I was willing to spend about $55k for an EV because I was selling my F150 and was used to spending $800+ a month for payment, gas and maintenance. I looked at all the EVs and knew I needed AWD no matter what; I live in Colorado. I loved the look of the Jaguar I-Pace the best but...

    Model Y 40% more efficient than Mustang Mach E

    Nice! Yea this weekend I charged but it was free for the 4th. I'm starting to see that Mach-E owners are getting the special pricing of 31 cents and non owners are paying the 43 cent price. I think it has to do with the contract between AE and Ford for the Plug & Charge network. Either way we...

    Model Y 40% more efficient than Mustang Mach E

    What's the Supercharger cost? I'm not familiar. I pay $0.31/kWh at the local AE stations. There's 6 AE stations at most Walmarts so I don't ever have an issue finding one or using it, just plug & charge. There's a Walmart on every major highway as far as I know.

    Model Y 40% more efficient than Mustang Mach E

    HAHA so true. I'm trying to update my datasheet for the future on this point. Unfortunately I don't have a clear answer. The best I can do is show you my route, Monday through Friday. See below. 33% of the time is around 40 mph then I get on the interstate and hum along from 70 to 85mph for 66%...

    Model Y 40% more efficient than Mustang Mach E

    Also the week leading up to 04/21/2021 we had a snowstorm in Colorado, you can verify this with a weather website. But you'll see my efficiency was bad at 3.1 mi/kWh (322.58 Wh/mi). I had the heater blasting and I was having a great deal of fun with the AWD system. HA. So efficiency is way down.

    Model Y 40% more efficient than Mustang Mach E

    I'm averaging 3.73 mi/kWh in my Mach-E; 268 Wh/mi in Tesla terms. After almost 5k miles. Mostly driving 40 to 85 mph, lots of interstates in Colorado that I need to use for work. I have extended range, premium, awd and I consistently get well over the 270 EPA rated miles. Right now I'm showing...

    Model Y 40% more efficient than Mustang Mach E

    Yep, and with very comparable efficiency.

    Model Y 40% more efficient than Mustang Mach E

    I second this! Tesla range is way overestimated and Ford underestimated which people have known for awhile. A friend of mine has the MY and he's averaging 270 Wh/mi and I'm averaging 290 Wh/mi in my Mach-E. We are in the same location and he hates that his MY range decreases drastically when he...

    An honest take on Tesla / the Model Y

    I did the same thing. I was walking up to my MY, ready to take delivery, and immediately noticed the passenger door was misaligned. So much so that my wife and I noticed it from farther away. I like Tesla and what they stand for but I'm waiting until the issues were fixed. I wouldn't mind so...

    Test drove the Model Y, Model 3 and the Mach E back to back to back, yesterday

    Completely agree. BTW the "open the garage door" button is a sweet feature!

    Model Y vs Mustang Mach E

    Have you driven a Mach-E? I've driven both and they each have their positives and negatives. It's really subjective though on what you prefer in an EV. Some people don't need the supercharger network (me) but want a traditional interior. Others need the network and like the minimalistic design.

    Model Y vs Mustang Mach E

    I test drove both recently, here's my opinion: Model Y: Pros: Exterior styling, cargo space, Supercharger network, OTA updates, fast and tech. Cons: Interior has a lot of cheaper plastics and rubbers to keep cost down, no Federal tax credit, bumpy ride (test drove with Gemini wheels) Mach-E...

    Test drove the Model Y, Model 3 and the Mach E back to back to back, yesterday

    Thanks for the honest review. I test drove the Mach-E and MY recently and I really enjoyed the Mach-E. Just like you I prefer the exterior styling and I really liked the interior of the Mach-E. Acceleration was fast and comparable to the MY. I did feel the MY was quicker when accelerating from...
