Electric Mustang or V8 Mustang?

V8 any day, who would even think of considering an electric mustang over a good ol v8?

Electric

V8, no question.

Haha is that really a question? 😂 V8 😁

V8

This car/suv looks so so so so so weird! I owned a ford suv before and I loved it. But this one...no thanks

Which colour is this? Silver or that "star white" ?

Wish I knew the sale figures for Mustang models because, I have a theory Ford sells more V8 models than V6 models. If they sell more V6 models, then I think they have a good chance to be successful at using the Mustang moniker. Not sure Mustang V8 buyers will take to it, despite the good 0-60 time. On the other hand, if the overall vehicle execution is good enough, the name recognition might serve to bring many people to the Mustang fold who may not have previously considered one. Your experience (and people’s reactions) seemed quite positive. Hope it portends success for Ford with its first mass market EV.

$55 grand? Give me a break! I don't have a money tree!

Not an expert in batteries at all, but the fact that it's placed under the driver's seat area.... I mean, can't some sort of explosion be a possibility?

What are they doing taking the body away from our beautiful mustang

I don't mind the idea just I would like to see the non suv crossover, sports coupe version already. Like I get trying to ease people into it but c'mon Ford you've committed this far already. Let me see that super sleek cyberpunk ev mustang lol

Ford should have just made a model E.

Why only Tesla makes Electric cars look cool! Every other brand looks very tacky. Atleast that my opinion.

Looks of this car is one of the reasons why people buy this despite having less range.

Why can’t there just be one charging network supported by every car manufacturer? Petrol/diesel cars can fill up and pay easily at any fuel station - why wasn’t the first thought to make an open network for electric cars too?

"I'm not going to beat around the bush here. The mustang mach-e is the most competent electric vehicle not made by Tesla or Porsche on the road right now." LOL

Come to India here if u put ur new ev on charge on a public charging stations someone will come and cut ur cable or will steal ur tyres

Its not a The Verge video if they didn't receive any payments from the company of the product they're reviewing.

Disappointed in the name choice of this vehicle. People will buy it just to say they have a mustang. I don't care if it sells, they ain't getting my money.

I do like it!! I wish they do a coupe as in a 2 DOOR MUSTANG.

10:12 you do realize that it is out of place and it shouldn't wear the mustang name get ridd of this atrocity.

Not a mustang, I think 99% of actual mustang goers don't consider this an electric mustang. This vehicle is pretty cool, but an electric mustang? no. A mustang is a two door coupe. This is just an electric crossover, much closer to a new Ford Edge.

The problem of the charging stations is solved in the EU with regulating both by having a single universal plug and that all charging stations must have an option for buying power for all cars. So, should the US also regulate this?

I think EVs are the way to go but if I buy a car, it'll be the Mustang GT, this is a great car but without that coyote vroom vroom a Mustang just doesn't feel like a Mustang. Still tho for what they are offering at 50k which isn't too cheap but not too costly either I think this is a great car.

Yikes - this design is awkward and clunky. Calling it a Mustang trades brand value for short-term gimmickry. Physics dictate that a crossover cannot match a traditional coupe in handling dynamics - so why christen it a sports car?

Came here to say there is no hype.

Bunch of tesla vag boys in this forum hahahahahahahahhaha. This is far superior to Tesla, simple.

3:51 ugh, this old FUDy duddy. Tesla makes impeccable cars. Cherry picking a few dozen issue cars vs. the 1.5 million Tesla's on the road is a shady thing to do. I own two Model 3's, both are incredibly well put together. And Ford has been 100 years and STILL can't make a perfect car: see the 10 recalls in a single year for the 2020 Ford Explorer.

If you haven’t driven or owned an electric car you don’t know what you’re missing.

Love the video! Keep it up guys..❤ Looking forward to more of these...

I bet theyll put a speaker in a faux tailpipe to make them super annoyingly loud like petrol mustangs.

Don’t like the look, and not a fan of ford’s quality and reliability. But more competition is good for consumers.

I just don’t see how anyone but lucid could keep up with Tesla... I wouldn’t buy this thing if I had to pick an ev that’s for sure

They should of just called it Ford Mach E. Adding the mustang in there just created unnecessary divisiveness

Nice work. You covered the areas I'm interested in and had great video along with it. Family has one on order and we're all excited to get behind the wheel of our first BEV.

I hate this 💔💔💔💔

It's a crime to call this a muste

The interior is better than any Tesla

Ford and the other old ICE car builders will not be able to make enough batteries to keep up the volume production. Tesla has locked in over 50% of the worlds Lithium-ion production and growing

Coming soon the best is Proton EV !

Y’all should also highlight that it isn’t like Tesla when it comes to price as ordering doesn’t guarantee that will be the price when produced even if you place and pay for your reservation.

I just think right now everyone (automakers.) should just invest into Tesla charging components. Just so there isn’t so much landscape. Or at least plan with while developing revolutionary chargers. Like apple with lighting cord then moved over to USBC.

I think the Mach E is also a great knock off of the Lamborghini Urus. Or same concept idea. Lambo is know for sports cars not SUVs. And I think it was a good move by Ford. Why not play around with the future. Def a good way to focus more on design. Less parts to RnD and push forward into the future.

Before we go any further. Verge, please let Ford know. They could have been a little more creative with their driver display. Yes. It would make the Mach cost more but it would be worth it and boost sales tremendously. Integrate it into the steering wheel like the McLaren Senna. And it flips up electronically either auto by driver configuration or when triggering different driving modes.

Disappointed Verge, this is not an honest review. -super lagy interface -gimmicky autopilot -very expensive zero to 60. M3 base does 3.5 on base model. -no over the air updates -very low range compared to better cheaper M3. I’d still get the tesla Model 3 or Model Y, rather than wasting money on this and regretting

But its not a mustang. I'm fine with electric but this doesn't deserve to be a suv

The shots taken at Elon wow starting the EV beef off early... “Let the games begin”

What's they HYPE? 🙈. Longer range? safer car? Made in U.S.A?, autonomous car? Best VALUE?

5:29 : “doesn’t let you move the map to repopulate search results” while unfortunate, that’s going to be a really expensive API call that the processing power (back and front end) in that car probably can’t handle given it can barely render a volume slider without stutter

We have gotten a few in already really impressed and growing on me. I hated it when they released it.

It was another brutal day on Wall Street for Tesla shares that stayed in the red for most of the day until a "Hail Mary" pass was thrown to pump the shares back up. After reaching out to a 40 year investor we were told, " Tesla was bleeding cash and on life support for the longest time. They had to raise money in a hurry, and needed to raise as much as possible, and as quick as possible. To do this, the shares are pumped as high as they can possibly go. Then more shares are sold into the market at this highly inflated price. Billions are raised, and soon after, the share price begins to retreat back to reality. That's just the way it goes." When asked about their "flying cars" their "hover cars", and cars that can go from 0 to 60 in under a second we were told, " What good is a car that can go from 0 to 60 in under a second when the car in front of you can't. Flying cars? Show me. It's BUZZ to create excitement. It's a pipe dream to keep the bag holders in check so that they can hold onto Tesla shares tightly as they tank down to reality. Go to one of their product launches so that you can hear 100 or so people scattered throughout the room chanting at the smallest reveal. Do you not think that they are paid plants invited to create this excitement?" We don't know how low shares of Tesla will go, but we do know that the competition ( Ford ) has introduced some very exciting cars that are selling like hot cakes while thousands of Tesla cars are parked on lots with no buyers in site. It appears that Tesla has all of a sudden become "Old Hat"!!

Mustang Mach-E: There’s no hype

I love it. Gorgeous

I've had my Mach-e for a week. There's a lot of tech to wade through when operating the touch screen. iPod doesn't integrate as well when connected. Doesn't provide audio controls through the touchscreen. Steering wheel controls work. An iPhone completely integrates phone and audio controls. Another bug is when activating the FordPass Charging Network trial. The connection fails when activating the trial on the website. Doesn't appear to be a way to activate the trial through the FordPass mobile app. Dealer has yet to get back to me regarding the Charging Network trial. Learning about charging on the go appears to be a challenge. Although, a home charger is included with the Mach-e that will plug into a 220 dryer outlet.

Funny fact is I dot have problem with car I have problem with that name .... This is something MD should be fired for.

Nice 👌

There is only one MAJOR flaw, it’s a Ford. And no one wants a Ford. People are FORCED to buy Ford because they can’t afford something better(with the exception of a truck, and some high end REAL mustangs like Gt500) other than that no one wants a Ford

Nope. I refuse. Mustangs are not SUVs. Call it a Clydesdale or something

That is NOT a Mustang! I have no comment on whether it's a good car or not but that is a Mustang in name only. They could've called a Ford Focus a Mustang but that doesn't make it one. Regardless of it being electric, it doesn't even have the slightest evolutionary look of a Mustang. Each Mustang in the past you could see it had evolved from the previous version but it still had that Mustang look. Not this thing. I see no Mustang here.

Sounds like he is pronouncing it "Mustang Macquis".

All the dislikes are from the Tesla Fanboys😂

Does not look / feel like a Mustang at all. It looks more like a mommy car.

Look at how they massacred my boy

Feels like a biased review

he said it's pretty good. and it's a mustang SUV! He said that with confidence Do you need a desk for it? Do you know what I mean? 😂😂

Swing and a miss in terms of design tbh. And what in the world is up with EV wheel design? These companies appear to be TRYING to make hideous wheels.

Why would you eat a cheese burger? Do you care about animals? Do you care about the planet? Do you care about your own health?

Wow this car look a lot like HRV from Honda

That is an awesome Car

This is NOT a Mustang. They slapped Mustang branding on it purely for marketing purposes.

Screw in with confidence, who else remembers?

I want one but I think I will wait 2-3 years for Ford to figure out the bugs

All they have to do now is ditch that ridiculous screen and put in a traditional co sole and guage cluster. Don't copy Tesla. Follow what all the other brands are doing with their e-car dash.

The lag on the screen is just amazing 😂, yah thats why everyone is buying a tsla

Owner of a 19' gt premium... I'll never recognize this as a mustang. Ford is piggy backing off the name for sake of sales and mustang enthusiasts. The vehicle will be obsolete in a couple years. I'd you want an electric car, the tesla offer software update as time goes on so older models are not as obsolete as time goes on.

Yeah I just hope ford has decent software engineers, since everyone has a smartphone with really good interfaces in their pocket. So the expectations for the all other interfaces are high; whether its a fridge or a car... it can't be that laggy.

Mustang is a "sports car" not and suv Ford should be ashamed.

Oh wow! Dont tell me this dial placed so neatly in the Screen is just controlling Volume!! That would have been such a missed opportunity for having a tactile input for the main Screen 🙈

Im getting one!

The way they're promoting it, wouldn't be surprised if Ford didnt heavily incentivised this review.

That's not a Mustang

You would think that north american gas stations would be seeking to install charging stations and that there would be tax incentives and write-offs for doing that. I want an EV, and Tesla's most compelling advantage is the network of super chargers. I'd be really concerned about buying a non-Tesla EV simply because finding a charging station feels like a roll of the dice right now.

The latest iPhone won't charge in the Bronco sport either. Same message. But older model iPhones will.

But the ugliness though 💩

No one is talking about how much room is in the rear seats. Is it roomy? How comfortable would a person, over six feet, fit in the rear seats?

The hype is real? Did Ford sponsor this?

Future is hybrid not electric.

In all honesty, it's good looking. I just hate the name. I'd get this before any bland boring ameba blob known as a Tesla! Until it is as convenient and as fast to charge as to fill a car with gas, I won't be going electric. I'm looking for a 8-10 min turn around from pull up to drive away!

Mustang Mach-E. Yeah, we got one.

Great Review and and a good Car! Why dont other car guys work with tesla to use their network? is it really that hard

I am the owner of a 2014 mustang GT. I absolutely love my car. But I'm looking to upgrade soon. Deciding between a 2018-2020 mustang or getting a Mach-E. I really love the rumble and sound, I offer to drive any chance I get I love driving my car so much.. But is it really worth giving up for the EV hype... I understand EVs are the future. But why not put an electric drive train and motor on the S550 chassis. I honestly wouldn't think twice... but this. This just looks iffy to me. I mean.. it's a crossover with a mustang badge..

starting from 43k usd... i can't but eco boost mustang under 50k eur...

BS car

I like how Ford copied the Model S so much with the screens. Too bad they didn’t figure that the new Model S would have the screen landscape instead of portrait style lol what a fail now they’re stuck with the old design from 2012

I also wouldnt want to buy an electric vehicle with any less than a 270 mile range. This looks rather interesting to me.... if I had a house with garage so I had somewhere to charge it. I am interested in getting an electric car but I dont see myself buying one until 2026.

Not a mustang..

That knob on the screen needs to go. Now!

I think you got right, a lot depends on how the dealers support it and how quickly the charging network can be ramped up.

Should have been called "Cougar" as in the MILF's that mostly will be buying and driving it.

It just satisfies me a lot that all of these car manufacturers are suddenly making EVs given the mockery these hypocrites made to Elon Musk and Tesla. They have eaten their own words. Now, they too are making "golfcarts".

It also has an electric vibator. The future, autonomy, sustainability, easiness.

animations on my 5 year old phone is better than this one lol

Comparing it with Tesla is like comparing Apples and Oranges.

you cant compare this bullcrap 3.5 to tesla's 1.9 dude
