Ocean to Ocean Reimagined: Mustang Mach-E Pays Tribute to Iconic Transcontinental Journey with Coast-to-Coast Drive

DEARBORN, Mich., May 17, 2021  Demand for the #mustangmache has skyrocketed, and 70 percent of customers who ordered the vehicle are new to #ford. To cater to this ever-increasing interest, #mustangmache is now traveling across America to demonstrate the capability and technology of Ford’s all-electric #suv.

Ocean to Ocean Reimagined showcases what the all-electric #mustangmache can do with product experiences along the way to demonstrate its style and features. The drive kicks off today at Classic Car Club Manhattan in #newyorkcity. Stops include Amelia Island off the Florida coast; Washington, D.C.; Charlotte, North Carolina; Atlanta and Las Vegas before concluding in #seattle. In total, the all-electric #suv will drive nearly 6,500 miles across 20 states in a span of 50 days.

“More than a century after the Model T brought mobility to the masses, #mustangmache is  injecting thrill and passion to fully electric vehicles,” said Jason Castriota, Ford’s global brand director, Battery Electric Vehicles. “Ocean to Ocean Reimagined is helping to amplify awareness around #mustangmache and what it can do. We hope this coast-to-coast journey – much like the original Ocean to Ocean race commissioned by Henry #ford in 1909 – becomes a truly unique, exhilarating and entertaining chapter in the #ford and Mustang story.”

On June 1, 1909, Henry #ford entered two factory Model T cars in the first U.S.-based transcontinental road race. Beginning in #newyorkcity, the race tested the endurance and capability of a relatively new technology – the automobile. Twenty-three days and 4,106 miles later, #ford Model T No. 2 crossed the finish line at the #seattle World’s Fair. A re-creation of that winning Model T will lead the two #mustangmache SUVs out of New York and escort them to the finish line in #seattle.

U.S. customer deliveries of #mustangmache started in December, with #mustangmache GT and #mustangmache GT Performance Edition arriving beginning this fall. Customers can order the Mustang Mach-E here.
