Will there be a 2025 Mach-E?
Yes, The Mach-E is expected to return for the 2025 model year. It should be released from late 2024 to early 2025. It’s expected to be identical to the 2024 model, carrying over the same trim levels and options as last year. That being said, Ford recently announced that new Mach-Es should start at a price of around $38,490, around $3,500 less expensive when compared to 2024’s entry price. Despite this, new features like a standard heat pump and updated Ford Bluecruise, it’s hands free driving system.
This price cut carries across the range, with the Premium trim getting an even larger price drop to $41,990, a full $4,000 cheaper when compared to the 2024 version. The GT AWD Extended Range model is starting at around $54,490, and the new Rally model starts at a jaw-dropping $57,990, which is down from its price tag of $65,390 from last year. When combined with a potential tax credit of up to $7,500, this year’s mustang has potential to be a veritable steal for prospective buyers.
That’s not all of the news about the Mach-E, though, with Ford announcing the debut of the new for 2025 Sport appearance package, which includes a revised front fascia, grill shield, red brake calipers, as well as 19 inch gloss black wheels, which were previously exclusive to the Premium trim. Furthermore, buyers can expect a new column-mounted shifter, which replaces the previous dial shifter.
Is Mach-E good for long distance driving?
Though the standard model gets a decent range of about 250 miles, the Extended Range trim will net you a full range of around 312 miles. With an estimated charge time of 7.4 hours, it does long range driving reasonably well for its class, staying close to competitors like the Tesla Model Y, losing the range battle in exchange for a price that compares quite favorably to the Tesla offering.
Summary
In conclusion, the Mach-E is all around better this year, even if the changes are someone muted on the car itself. The lower price and always welcome EV Tax credit are options that should readily entice prospective buyers, but that doesn’t mean that the Mach-E is using its price as bait on the hook; it’s a solid family car that can take you reasonably far in a package that’s sleek, comfortable, and above all else, affordable.
