Ford unveils new 2024 Mustang Mach-E with more range, quicker acceleration, and faster charging

Entertainment

Ford has unveiled its new 2024 Mustang Mach-E lineup, which offers more range, quicker acceleration, and faster charging.

The American automaker has put together a bit of a late model year update as we are already a quarter into the year, but it was worth the wait.

The Mustang Mach-E 2024 results in a nice bump across the board for the electric SUV.

First off, all models are getting a nice little bump in the estimated EPA range with now the extended range battery getting up to 320 miles of range with the rear-wheel-drive motor configuration:

Vehicle  2024 model year EPA-estimated range Improvement
Mustang Mach-E Select, standard-range battery, rear-wheel drive  250  + 20 
Mustang Mach-E Premium, extended-range battery, rear-wheel drive  320  + 20 
Mustang Mach-E GT  280  + 10 
Mustang Mach-E Rally  265  N/A 

Ford is crediting a new rear motor for the Mustang Mach-E’s increase in range across the board, along with a bunch of other tweaks that add up to a nice efficiency bump.

With the efficiency bump, Ford is bringing a significant improvement in fast-charging time.

Ford is now talking about 36.2 minutes 10 to 80% charge time for the Mach-E trims with extended battery:

The 2024 Mustang Mach-E® SUV with available extended range battery charges almost 20 percent faster with DC fast charging than previous models, enabling drivers to charge from 10-80% in approximately 36.2 minutes and get back on the road – that’s 8.8 minutes faster than previous models – and standard range battery offerings charge 10-80% in 32.3 min, which is 5.7 minutes faster than the Mustang Mach-E at launch5

Finally, the 2024 model year comes with a performance bump – as well as a new performance trim.

Ford’s new ‘Performance Upgrade’ results in shaving half a second off the Mach-E GT’s 0 to 60 mph acceleration time:

Our 2024 Mustang Mach-E GT with the Mustang Mach-E GT Performance Upgrade truly is the quickest Mustang Mach-E to date.  0-60 mph in 3.3 seconds, it is faster than both the Tesla Model Y Performance and the Porsche Macan 4 Electric. It cracks the quarter mile in 11.8 seconds at 114 mph.  

The Performance Upgrade is optional on the Mach-E GT, but it is standard on the new Ford Mustang Mach-E Rally.

Ford says that the new version of the vehicle is tuned for both on-road and off-road, and it is raised full inch higher than the GT:

Rally is raised 1” higher than GT, tuned for both on road and off-road, with rally-inspired appearance wheels, tires, spoilers, and stripe package. 

The American automaker released a quick video about the Mach-E’s new trim:

So, in short, the new 2024 model year brings a new trim to the Mach-E, the Rally version, and performance, range, and charging upgrade across the rest of the existing lineup.

Here’s Ford’s official new lineup, with prices, for the 2024 Mustang Mach-E:
