Driving the NEW Mustang Mach-E Rally 

This was awesome to watch and makes me so excited to get my hands on my GT Rally. It's in transit as we speak.

Dude, you are doing God’s work here. We all know that electric is new, and different, and we don’t know exactly where it’s going. I really love that you’re open to this and willing to find a way to work with it. And that torque is f**king addictive ❤

One of the big things keeping me from getting these is the lack of physical controls. I hate interacting with the touch screen for basic functions. Bring back knobs, switches, and buttons! I want to keep my eyes on the road while driving.

We need a awd electric two door rally hatchback like the escort cosworth rs I know every company thinks Americans are fat with 5 kids but we actually don’t all need suvs. That’s not meant to be insulting just a joke. But seriously rally is getting so popular over here there is definitely a market for something like the gr Yaris but ev since that seems to be the way things are going.

I’m just glad to see you having a fun time, all the haters just keep missing that they’re comparing brand new cars to older established cars. If they were born a century ago they’d be the same ones complaining about going from horses to cars. Change shouldn’t be scary, it should be exciting and invigorating. Much love from Texas (I think of your cloverleaf drift every time I drive through Lake Worth) ❤

I just picked up the AWD Mach-E and it has been fun to drive. The instant torque is awesome and the silence while accelerating is an interesting experience. I love the exhaust on my other cars, but there is something awesome about stepping on it and taking off like a bat out of hell without anyone around your hearing it.

Well as a car person, ESPECIALLY a mustang person, i never liked how they named the Mach-E after a mustang because it.. didnt really fit the car, but i have no problems with electric cars, like rimacs or Lotuses Evira, or the Porsche Taycan :D, i overall enjoy electric cars just as much as i love gas cars, its just dependent on how the car company does it, i like seeing Vaughn exploring different options of cars :D i think as long as you enjoy it ^^ i turned 16 on the 9th of May and im excited to even get a car, (but it might be a while since im in a burn hospital-) anyway, yall get my point!

For noise ordinance purposes you could host a rally event close to new housing developments or along side a karen convention on without issue

I've been watching various review videos from this event all day and I must say I'm very interested in driving one to experience it since I haven't driven an EV yet. Vaughn this video was the best and hearing the WRC driver's take on it and seeing him wheel it around the track was awesome thank you for this video also is that Mach-E shirt available on your shop's website for purchase?

I wish they didnt use the mustang name and styling. An electric suv has no relation to a v8 muscle car. However, i respect ford for producing performance oriented models like this.

Vaughn, what are your thoughts on what Hyundai is doing with their ionic 5 n? In N mode, it makes it to where you can actually shift it like it’s a dual clutch. It also simulates an RPM range and pipes in engine noise from the Elantra N. Wonder if you could do something similar with the Mach E and pipe in 5.0 noises and have it shift like the Ionic 5

“It’s not a replacement… but there’s a place for it” ❤❤❤

What was all that cackling in the back seat? 😂 It was a pleasure hanging with you in and out of car. Cheers!

to everyone complaining about electric rally cars they've clearly never had the pleasure of running and wrenching on RC cars, it's just a 1 scale afterall! my only gripe with EVs are the resale value and battery replacements in 7-10 years when the market is flooded with them. also I hope they spent a lot of time and money on a proper skid plate for these models...an EV fire could burn an entire forest down in an hour

i had a MK4 Gun Grey RS Turbo 1997 . road car Loved it

I love my Tesla and I will never Daily a gas car again. If someone actually made an electric truck that has usable towing range and charging speed (practical) I would trade in my Diesel.

Yeah my 2nd vehicle 80 grand or more!!! And more to insure than ice!! if your upper middle class great.

Whatever your opinion is on evs, idk how you can look at a video like this and not think that is fun!

1 min/first comment. Love the car!!!!!

Just watched the out of spec video and your hot lap with them convinced me this trim of the mach e is the one to get

Screw the politics if it’s fun to drive then drive it. Awesome video bud RTR 🤘

Did Vaughn say that the cars GVWR was the car's weight? Woops, lol. No worries, we all goof up. Curious what the actual curb weight is though.

if ford built a mustang gt rally i'll probly go ham on it once i get used to it but the mach e rally? if it wasn't electric then it'll be more fun hearing the n/a v8 but in my humble opinion it's decent and i respect electrification but i prefer combustion engines more

Balance is good, weight is in the middle so rotation is done well. Not everyone needs a performance vehicle some just need A-B, but with a touch of a button, you can have both with an EV.

i agree with Vaughn. Fun = Fun. people drive electric go karts and have a blast. The problem with EVs is, yes they are quick, but they are not fun. Having a lot of power doesn't always mean fun. Miata's are great fun cars to drive most have under 200hp and they are great cars to drive. an EV can be fun to drive, they just need to be able to figure out how the car feels and the pedal control and traction control and stability control stuff.

8:21 I love the spoiler. I have one of the aftermarket ones on my rapid red and love it. Fits well and makes the look.

Love that blue on the RS200 Evo!

Love the DirtFish video Vaughn! I was hoping that you'd show a ride with Adrian Fourmaux! Was he flipping it into reverse and then drive as he flicked it around?

send me one i could really use it right now

A true driver, and true enthusiast. 👍

Yes electric vehicles are very boring 😂

I really appreciate ur input and video content This car seems amazing Your experience and input really matters for development

Still boring dude ;-)

Ford Mustang Cherry Picker. 😂

I agree, with a drift handbrake it would be perfect.

Mach-E Rally ❌ Mashed E RAILED ✅

The only question I have is should I buy one now or wait until the Rally RTR version comes out? (Assuming your team has something in the works, right?)

yeah how those tires doing on those things EV's are just destroying tires

They really should've kept the mustang nameplate off of it and just called it the Mach E. Electric vehicles are cool as an option. It'll be a forced future in the US and won't last very long once it becomes mandated. These cars, specifically the mach e, have a slew of issues. They need more polish that they're not getting thanks to the amount of time the manufacturers have been given to put vehicles like these into production. Cool car though. Needs a rebrand before I buy one

It's Faster to cook a steak in a microwave but I'm not going to a restaurant for a microwaved steak.

My two cents as it were. - I'm excited about what electric motors can do. I started off on electric R/C hobby into nitro and then cars etc.... - Too many "controls" have been taken from the pilot in modern cars, electric moreso. The less involving, the less involved. (Gears selections, TC, direct road feel, etc) I understand the argument with the single gear range, I still don't like it. I had a 2 spd on my R/C electric truck... - Range of energy available and speed of energy replenishment. - Unfortunate circumstance of how the energy is stored, EV vehicles are so large/heavy. To accommodate that much weight and keep it low makes for a very large footprint and a bit of a bulbous look to reduce drag. -This is more the medium to enter the Mach-E into (imo) ... - I still can't consider it a Mustang. It's more like a Bull.

We need an angle kit, clutch kick style, and hand brake. Then it would be a totally different story. Waiting for that product soon.

Bor … ing not sure how politics is involved...but electric is cool for commuting..after that, they are lame, especially as a performance car. its not all about lighting speed

I would unironically rather own a 4-pot Mustang II than rock a Mach-E

Doesn't look that fun to rally? Would rather take the Focus RS am i right. Seems like there is literally no market for this? Like who is buying this "Rally" edition SUV...? LMAO😂

This is the absolute last thing I should be seeing in conjunction with the word rally. Let's walk back to the race car prototype from a few years back and start with bodywork. Ford needs to develop a 20k usd base model to launch from. It's blatantly obvious the price point on these vehicles is a failure. I'm soooo disappointed with the management at Ford for all of this. Such amazing potential completely wasted....

Never thought fast cars could be boring!

Sure it has amazing performance, but does it have to be so ugly?

They probably are a hoot for a little while. But the feeling is nothing like a equal HP gas vehicle. You guys will never convince people. We all know better.

It’s got to be about politics though when the government is forcing these car companies to go all electric by a certain year and we’re just not ready for that step. Fords loosing a lot of money each ev they make and it’s simply because not everyone can afford them yet so there not selling.

Sorry Vaughn electric is always boring and not the future

Gimme fuel Gimme fire Gimme a dang combination engine all day everyday...

The electric car suck . Sorry man

Nothing against electric cars as long as noone forces me to use them or combustion engines getting forbidden. All for a lie of CO2 beeing so destructiv which just isnt true.

Yes, electric cars are boring. They do not have the character of my 5.0 S550 GT.

Electric is super boring. I like your videos with real mustangs. Way better

Guy paid by ford says ford things are great! buy ford! by ford.
