DEARBORN, Mich., April 26, 2021 – Ford Mustang #machegt and #mustangmachegtperformanceedition are set to accentuate the thrill of the GT name with the responsiveness of an all-electric powertrain this fall.

“With Mustang #machegt and #mustangmachegtperformanceedition, we’re pushing the boundaries of what an electric vehicle can offer,” said Dave Pericak, vehicle program director. “These Mustang Mach-E models not only give customers the added capability expected from the GT name, but the responsiveness of their electric powertrains will ensure they have a thrilling experience behind the wheel.”

Mustang #machegt features electric all-wheel-drive and permanent magnetic dual motors, including an upgraded secondary electric motor that powers the front wheels for a combined power output of 480 peak horsepower and 600 lb.-ft. of torque¹. It aims for a 0-60 mph time of 3.8 seconds² while targeting an EPA-estimated 250 miles of range³.

In addition to three drive experiences that is offered on the Mustang Mach-E, Mustang #machegt and #mustangmachegtperformanceedition introduce Unbridled Extend, a track- and closed-course-only take on Unbridled mode that balances power output for lap time consistency. The system provides more performance-oriented traction and stability control tuned specifically for track use – including an increase in interior sound.

Mustang #machegt features 20-inch machined-face aluminum wheels with high-gloss black-painted pockets and aero covers with 245/45R20 Continental all-season tires. #machegt also gets red-painted #performance brake calipers, plus 385-millimeter ventilated front rotors and 316-millimeter solid rear rotors.

The Mustang #machegt interior features multi-color ambient lighting, front door scuff plates with metal inserts with pony graphic and GT lettering, and an aluminum appliqué instrument panel. Sport-style front seats feature Black Onyx ActiveX^™ material with Miko^® insert, copper metallic stitching and copper metallic accent piping. Mustang #machegt also features a B&O Sound System by Bang & Olufsen with nine speakers and subwoofer.

Mustang #machegt #performance Edition adds some ‘oomph’

With a 0-60 mph time of 3.5 seconds², the Mustang #machegt #performance Edition joins the Mustang #machegt stable, making an already-fast electric pony even quicker. Pumping out 480 horsepower and 634 lb.-ft. of torque¹ – the same horsepower as the Mustang Mach 1 #performance coupe but with 214 lb.-ft. additional torque – #mustangmachegtperformanceedition delivers more torque, grip and better handling by drawing more power from its battery pack, and targets an EPA-estimated range of 235 miles³.

Offering more than just added “oomph,” #mustangmachegtperformanceedition features sportier components including 385-millimeter front rotors with red-painted Brembo^®-branded calipers, as well as 20-inch machined-face aluminum wheels with high-gloss Ebony Black-painted pockets paired with 245/45R20 Pirelli summer tires⁴ – unique to Mustang Mach-E and which enabled engineers to calibrate the motors for increased torque – as well as MagneRide^® Damping System to help improve handling #performance.

Its interior features #ford #performance front seats in #performance Gray ActiveX Seating Material plus unique Miko perforated reflective insert and metallic stitching.

Both Mustang #machegt and #mustangmachegtperformanceedition feature a Carbonized Gray grille with illuminated pony badge and GT series badging adorning the exterior. Mustang #machegt also features a hands-free, foot-activated liftgate, pony projection lamps and black-painted sideview mirror caps.
