    Detroit Strikes Back! 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E First Drive Review

    Is The Mustang Mach-E Worth It?
    With prices starting at $43,995 before any federal and state rebates or incentives, you'd frankly be foolish to not consider a Mustang Mach-E if you're in the market for a premium electric vehicle like a Tesla Model 3 or Model Y, a Polestar 2, or Volvo XC40 Recharge. Well-equipped from the factory, our Mustang Mach-E Premium started at $48,100 and had three options: dual motor AWD ($2,700), the Extended Range battery ($5,000), and Rapid Red paint ($400), bringing its sticker price to $56,200.

    The temptation to pedantically argue over what is and isn't a Mustang will no doubt tirelessly continue, but I'd say ignore the noise. This Mustang is just as enticing a performance vehicle as my old GT, except it just so happens to be an electric SUV. And a damned good one at that.

    That first article ("worth the hype") sounded the alarm on the Mach-E's brakes calling them neither linear nor progressive. It does have single pedal regen, but once you start using the brakes, it apparently isn't intuitive or fluid.

    And the Mach-E doesn't have the Model Y range, efficiency, or Tesla charging network. Unknown about cargo space?

    Comparison with Tesla mentioned, summation, just a a different flavor and that's good. Different strokes for different folks. No, Tesla is not dissed.
