Ford Motor in November 2020 began production in the United States of the super-important global electric crossover Mach-E. In China, EVs and hybrids are in very high demand (the Tesla Model 3 sedan sold just under 140,000 units last year), which is why Ford wants to build its first EV in that country to avoid heavy import duties. cars.
The production of electric Mustangs Ford is going to establish in a joint venture with Changan. In the Chinese market, the Mach-E will receive an upgraded level 2 autonomous driving system (like Tesla's) that will allow the car to navigate traffic on its own (although the driver must still be ready to take control immediately). The design will also be revised and the chassis modified: body length will increase by 15 mm, width - by 1 mm, height - by 23 mm, wheelbase will add 12 mm.
In addition to the usual versions of the Mach-E, Ford also localizes in China a sports GT that can accelerate to 100 km / h in 3 seconds. The Tesla Model Y Performance electric car has similar dynamics.
In the US, the Mustang Mach-E is available to order starting at $42,895 and is made in Mexico.
