Mustang Mach E GT Performance Edition | Jay Leno's Garage 

Saw that too

I'm glad he said it. Now companies will think twice about adding it. Jay is a big hitter in the auto world.

I like it alot. Porsche did the sound the right way in tycan.

It's entirely optional and easy to switch that's the good part.

Ford does this on the V6 Raptor. Fake exhaust sounds through the speakers.

Jay is my template for honesty.

Nice engines to show off. No thanks. Pieces of Sht when they need new batteries

In this particular review, he seemed more old fuddy wishing for the old days ,,, side note Ford finally comes out with the performance version and it's horses are half of what they should have been 😑

Me too I love the show

@@DaveyboyJonez don't know about all of them, but tesla's are designed to be million mile cars. Much of them are way overbuilt. Batts are lasting 200,000 and 300,000 miles in them. I've kept a car that long, though I guess some folks do.

thank you for giving the mach-e a chance and sharing your good experience with this car. everyone seems to shutting this car out because it’s mustang that’s electric and an suv

So histoically the Mustang is notoriously kind of a crappy built car, how do you feel the Mach e is built on a scale of one to ten?

What the hell is a MMEGTPE........Is that a vitamin or something from the Pharmacy..???....Paul

Great reply! I also own a 2023 Mach E GT PE and I absolutely love it. Love the Horsepower and torque combo.

Absolutely agree

That's what kills it for me. Plus, this thing is too similar to the body Tesla uses and I think we've all seen enough of those.

Well we Mopar guys had to suffer through 4cyl. Mitsus called Challenger and 2.2 Turbos called Charger; (I won't even go into the Volare Road Runner) and then still today an ancient Benz E Class 4 door called a Charger - and you're squawking????? I'd be more pissed this is a Mexican dog if I were you. 🇺🇸

it's their car. they can call it whatever they like. lol

I have a problem with Mustangs being electric. I have issues with EV garbage in general.

I don’t know how Ford does it. My electric car has roadside assistance. Which means in 30 minutes a guy pulls up with my tire for my car. He puts it on. He takes my wheel to the service center. The next day I go there, and my tire is fixed on my wheel.

@@garywiseman5080 that wouldn't be the case on every road. If you are on a camping trip with no cell phone signal, you are screwed.

We'll just mount them on the "frunk", like an old-school Land Rover. That'll be good for aerodynamics.

I had two flats in one month in my Shelby and I had to wait about 7’days each time to get a replacement tire. I almost thought about buying a spare but it cost like 500 dollars

I remember BMW removing the spare tires from their cars starting way back when and pushing the runflat tires as the answer. Owners hated the early runflats as they were so stiff and harsh riding.

FUD Muck-e is a CLOWN car.

*lets

@@markplott4820 I hate electric cars

@@dujuanjohnson5025 - why ? what did an Electric car do to you , where did it hurt you. or are you a GAS Snowflake ?

I actually think that's a good idea!

Ford Maverick is a truck now 😂..

Ford “thunderbolt” would have been nice too

lol

Thunderbolt is a better name with Ford heritage.

Says the guy that will never own one.

You do realize dodge darts were 2 door muscle cars then came back as a little 4 banger 4 door coupe with plastic bubbles for fenders? Even with ford. Have you seen what the thunderbird went through? Times change. You can too. Boomer.

​@@stgeorge5862 Darts were economy cars. You could get a trim with a decent engine and suspension, but for every 340 GT that was made, they sold 20 slant-sixes and 318s

LOL

I’m glad someone else noticed that lmao the look of sheer panic

Yep, agree. It's outselling the regular Mustang because it's an SUV, not a Mustang. SUVs are WAY more desirable for everyday use and to top it off, because it's electric, it gets a huge write off to boot.

Probably would have sold more

Same thoughts!

@@brandonnixon7105 absolutely they were not SUVs

They should have just called it the Thunderbird... The T-Bird has always changed from a two door convertible to a boat and back again.. Besides, Thunderbird has Thunder in it.. very "Electric" sounding.

Good idea it gives a tesla feeling and gives credit to good ol model t

It just makes Ford look like they were DESPERATE for this car to attract attention, and the only way they could think of was to re-appropriate the name of their 'sportscar'... Agreed, it's probably a great car, but I just hope this doesn't 'backfire' and end up DILLUTING the Mustang badge? When you tell people you have a 'Mustang', will they assume you have a 5.0L 2 door sportscar, or think that you own this electric SUV?

@@StreetPreacherr Dude. The only mustang that's faster is the $100,000+ GT500. It's an SUV, but it is NOT slow.

Should have just called it the Mach E… drop mustang. But the name got people talkin

From the front, It resembles a Mustang to me. And if FORD calls it a Mustang, guess what? it's a Mustang!! Get over it, people. it's not that big of a deal.

I would have chosen - Galaxy per Galax-E?

I’m the same age, and will take the additional step in saying I prefer a manual transmission.. but I 100% agree with everything you said.. think the sweet spot is about 2008 which is right about when they added the zoomer features

The sweet spot is any 2011-2014 S197. New engines (5.0, 3.7) and 6 speed transmissions, still analog enough to feel old school, but not so much a pain to daily.

"no knob to change gears" you like your gear stick with no knob?

@@krusher74 no electric knob

Accept the fact they both are lying about talking about a mustang.

It's because he hates the car but has to feed his children.

I was thinking the same thing!

Yeah, I was about to moan about them having got a marketing guy on to do the show. Then I looked him up and realised he's not the marketing guy.

He gives me the same vibe. I much prefer the way Franz von Holzhausen comes across (shame the wayTesla service is so bad though).

Yes. Every sentence he utters, he’s looking for an opportunity to sell something.

It’s always the same guy from Ford Jay meets and he’s always on edge to please snd make Ford look good

Yeah Jay, now listen to this Jay...Jay, you gotta see this!

@@superbuddyfranklin ya man won a le mans ,so he is saying smtg luckily.. there guys now driving a Toyota and saying they know the full tech

What's Dave supposed to say? He hates the car but my employer is making me talk it up? Like it or not, this is the direction Ford (and every other manufacturer) is going. They said it at the beginning: the Mach E is outselling the Mustang proper. Keeping the Mustang name alive by making it a sub-brand is a good thing.

@@michaellorenz7177 Nah.. just silly; like the Chinese buying MG, which was a British sports car and calling a cheap Chinese made hatchback an MG.. it's laughable.

And then the absense of a heat pump!!! I heard you can’t even order that as an option, at least not in my country (the Netherlands)

Future google searches...My Mustang mach e door wont lock/open.

💯

Yup when they first came out in 64 they had problems and were already antiquated

I will never call it a mustang!!

@KingLouisV Yup, and that's why @1:53 he couldn't even put a number to it - "...now that we've sold, so many of them..." LOL! I love that Ford is furthering the BEV philosophy even if it's by chasing Tesla taillights down the road, but the goof that authorized naming this thing "Mustang" should never be allowed to brand anything.

I know. Hard to watch. Got to keep the climate grift going.

He deserves a award. He knows how cringe it is to try and call it a mustang.

And its tough to ignore "ugly suv-ish".

Well its not like they are going to change the name. People are buying these things up so they have no reason to.

FUGLY.

it has been dying down tbh. i see them in a lot of places, and a lot of people who are mustang owners and enthusiasts while the they don’t love it they’re definitely not as mad as they were.

It's not a mustang. It's a fking abomination. Ford should be completely ashamed of themselves.

Ford took his soul away with this project.

@@gustavoflorio5383 I don't know about that. He seemed genuinely enthusiastic about it.

@@slargo83 he's paid a lot of money to fake it..

Yeah, they're about as interesting as fridges or washing machines. I cannot understand, for example how folks get so excited about new cell phones. it's different with internal combustion powered cars.

I'm just the opposite. I had little interest in cars until electric cars came out. Now, I follow all the new EV introductions.

@@dansanger5340 Oh yes, I do keep up with developments with them, but I'm afraid that I can't get excited about them. I'm glad that people do find them stimulating though as, whether I like it or not, they're here to stay.

Oooh check out my motor and obsolete battery.

@@dansanger5340 what interests you about them?

Waaaahhhh

I think they’ll make it a sub brand

True, doesn't look anything like a Mustang, it doesn't even look American

They put the mustang name on a 2.3l 4-cylinder in the 80s… this is fine.

@@WorldwideWyatt and amazingly the mustang has been around long enough for them to screw up again.

I set a world record in a Plaid. How can you top that off? Oh look the front emblem lights up.

All people who care about Mustang as the ultimate Ford will be dead in a few decades. They're not marketing to you, they're marketing to future buyers. - Remember all the main car makes are 10 years behind on E.V branding since they're dinosaurs catching up.

FUD motor will be BANKRUPT in 2023.

And...that's why you have a marketing department. To figure these things out and make money. So Mustang it is.

@@LawrenceRoss1906 - TESLA does MORE, with ZERO fluff and ZERO marketing.

Honestly yes. I would have been more interested if it had another name.

@@LawrenceRoss1906 Mustang it's not, it's a Mach E with a name added to sell. You can call a turtle a Porsche, but it doesn't make the turtle more sporty.

a difference for sure

I am with you on this.... the fact that the guy was laughing about changing a spare tire.... what is funny about that? I do that wjhen I have a flat

@@KZCAN last I heard wheels still flatten.

LOL You are delusional. Cannon Ball Run CA to NY should take about 2 Days 48hours in this thing. NJ to NM is way shorter. You are soo ignorantly outdated.

So wearing Depends and eating Slim Jims behind the wheel? I guess...

Gas car owners spend 9 hours a year fueling their cars. EV owners plus the car in when they go to bed. Road trips are a blast in EVs. Fuel costs 75% less, and 20 minutes gives me enough charge to get me to my next bio break. Which, sadly, seems to take the whole 20 minutes, when you add in picking up a drink and a snack!

@Paul DeLucchi Foods better in NJ.

@@Neojhun 48 hours to recharge from NY to CA? Or are you stopping the clock during the recharge? Because you certainly can't sleep 3 times a day while you recharge.

Maybe one day Ford will make a mustang EV

Keep your ICE forever. Ford has yet to make a mustang EV. But what they did make was a Ford Escape EV. And called it a mustang. Mustangs as everyone knows is not a suv. Does not have 4 doors. Everything about calling the Mach E a mustang is a joke and is all about marketing.

Okay grandpa

@@1Jbeats This is my Mustang. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-MLvcZwnZnYo.html No fake sound required.

They just did.

Mustang II came out in September 1973 for the 1974 model year. I own a 1970 Mach 1. 351 W. I agree the V-8 is here to stay!

This is their mustang which means the mustang died.

a mustang suv....???? nope!!

Not even a hatch back just a strait SUV

They should have revived the Taurus name and used it on this. I will never consider this a Mustang.

...or a Porsche for that matter, but this is the future and everything can happen.

..and i don't think a four door Jeep should be called a Wrangler...call it something else...

He is a national treasure!

Your annoying as your channel.

My thoughts exactly.

Not a chance. People would look at it as a Ford compliance car. Ford knew they had to have recognition so they used the Mustang badge to get it.

That's what they said when the Mustang II came out.

They did it?? You mean offered a car and brand that's outselling gas mustangs? Right.

@@1Jbeats Exactly. Now every soccermom has the same Mustang.

@@1Jbeats no

Well they certainly learned their lesson on a few model names, i.e. Escort and Probe. You gotta wonder what they were thinking especially with the Probe.

me either

Right, it's a cool car but not a Mustang. More like an Escape GT.

Right!

They completely dropped the ball for not havin a V8 5.0 option in these🤦🤦🤦the bodystyle was perfect 😭😭😭

Go and see the sticker on the lot, they’re selling a Mustang Mach e GT , so Mustang 👍🏽

He was a car guy until he embraced the Left’s EV trash

👍🤣

I was thinking about that when he said "Heart and Soul of a Mustang" 🤣

They shouldn’t even be allowed to call them cars. They should be legally required to call them appliances.

All "cars" in the future will be considered electrified appliances.

@@mercoid what? You are a 🤡 eh?

Sandy Munro tore down the Mach-E to the component level and was shocked by all the hoses and wiring. He said they will have to a do a lot of reengineering to make it compete with the reliability of the Teslas. Let's hope Ford gets the F-150 Lightning right!

@@aussie2uGA you do knew that was a job 1 car produced over a year ago right? Ford has already corrected…

Agreed

That keypad has been around on the Fords since the '80s

Because it is a Crossover SUV

@@ismaelcarrillo3956 Mustang was born as an American Sports Car Icon. 🤣 I guess its time for US cars to go through "Identity Crisis" or "Gender Identity," just like its people.

I sure do!!!

Ford Edge Mach E lmao

Probe

Exp

El toro de la mexico.

Crown Vic Sport Model

I think this car is for people that drive suv's can pretend to be cool by saying "I drive a Mustang"...they missed the que on the naming of it in my opinion. This isn't a Mustang.

It's the best looking EV on the market.

@@DK-pr9ny It is nice looking but I think it lost a lot of the style that made Mustang what it is. I can live with it being electric, but I think they lost it with the 4 doors and the SUV look.

@@curtisszymczyk1339 Agree they should have just called it the "Mach-E"

@@DK-pr9ny yes, leave Mustang off; it just does not have the stylish lines.

Nah crap who really honestly wants this generic a$$ ish all based on something they are trying to push down your throat nah im good plus all the unnecessary tech that comes with it whos gonna control the updates you or ford who will be able to ultimately turn it off at will

Got nothing against electric cars but this is wrong in every way. This is no mustang it is a 4 door family car. Would really like to see more 2 door coupes. Is there any nice sports cars left today?

​@@iblameshanemane9204 WTF that makes non sense. That was just incoherent spam.

@jS197 and i wont but its straight being shoved down your throat I didnt ask for a speech i just commented on what I see these cars could be way fuckijg better dont sit here any play lije theyre any damn better that ice cars buddy theyre not theyre a waste of time a gimmick thats it when theyre actually usable and affordable then we can talk and again its no mustang

@@Neojhun and wtf are you actually talking about shut up

Brakes and oil changes are cheap. Batteries are a big ticket item.

Exactly. You think. Do the research

@@332ARA Tesla batteries warranty is for 100k miles. How long is your gas motor warranty?

@@ismaelcarrillo3956 I have two cars, both twenty + years old. My problem with some electric cars is that when the battery needs replacing - owners won't, because the cost of the new battery will be more than the car is worth - therefore what in the UK insurers would call a 'write-off'. If this proves to be true in the future, then electric cars will not last as long on the road as petrol / diesel cars. You could have a situation where in the lifetime of a petrol/ diesel car, two or three electric cars have to be made - therefore overall the total environmental issues caused per each electric car built could be more than per petrol/ diesel car. I may be proven wrong, but I don't like the way we are all being encouraged to dash headlong towards electric cars - after all this is what happened with diesel cars - and look how that turned out! I have nothing against electric cars, but believe we should still keep our eyes open on other alternatives - fuel cell, bio-fuel and hydrogen cars for example.

@@ismaelcarrillo3956 Most manufacturers have power train warranties of 80,000-100,000 miles…. Some more. Do the research!

There are always exceptions. Most people even in rural america this will do most of the driving perfectly.

Pointless, BEVs do not need to cover every use case. If you need more than 400 Miles don't bother with BEVs. There is not even enough Production Capacity for people who only need 400 miles or less. I live in freaking Australia, I would never use a BEV to go into The OutBack. But I would not use a freaking Expedition 4x4 to commute in our megacities. Different tools for different jobs.

How many ICE vehicles can go 500 miles in the winter? Very few. As for electric vehicles that can go 500 miles (although maybe not in winter), there is already one on the market. The Lucid Air has been tested in the real world as being capable of going 500 miles at 70 MPH on the highway, and probably farther at lower speeds.

For everyone that drives 500+ miles a day, and never gets near a highway, this won’t work. That currently rules out Alaska, South America, Africa, and Australia, if you drive 500+ miles per day.

Agreed...he's totally out of touch with this detail. 😆

They actually do need maintenance. Car and Driver found EV maintenance to be just as expensive as ICE maintenance. It's not oil changes but what is does need is more expensive. Different things need routine checks.

Tesla's vehicles been out for 9 uears. No significant problems have come up. And that's 9 year old technology. How much is an engine and transmission after your 36k mile warranty?

How often do you go more than 250 miles? Having to wait 30 Minutes on rare occasions is very worth it. When vast majority of the time it takes 30 SECONDs of your time to charge on Level 2 slow charging. Unlike a Gas Pump you're not supposed to walk away forget about it and do something else. You also can't have a Gas Pump at your Residential Home. Short DC Fast Charging time is only useful for people who FREQUENTLY drive more than a single charge. The difference in time spent charging for most people is no different to Petrol.

@@Neojhun Actually, when I lived in a very rural area, I did have a petrol pump at my house. I had to crank it, but it pumped petrol into my tank. And yes, I do travel more than 250 miles many times.

@@markemanuele1929 Then you are in the very rare 1%, most people are NOT in your situation, your situation could change at any moment especially depending on your age, health and other issues.

95% of people are not going to BE driving 300 miles at a time except during summer vacation or something, most people will be driving to/from work, shopping, the dentist, taking kids to school, etc., like th egas tank, you "fill" the batteries and drive for days or longer before having to refill again. In my case I live 1/2 mile from work, I come home for lunch, so I put on 2 miles a day on a moped that gets 80 mpg and uses 1/2 a quart of oil for oil changes. If I had an EV one charge would easily last many weeks and then I could charge it at home. On occasion I drive to a city 35 miles away for a Menards, or another city that is 18 miles away, neither trip would need any kind of additional charging.

@Marlina Lovely💛💛 ❤️❤️😘😍

Because Ford and many other major manufacturers no longer produce cars. They only do SUV's & trucks and companies like Honda & Chrysler still make Mini Vans.

Yup. After that it reduces power to conserve battery. So I guess you will have to find 1/16 mile drag straps.

Perfect for the transgender and can’t define a woman generation. 😂

But a 4 cylinder “Mustang” isn’t? Who makes up the rules on what a Mustang is? Oh that’s right Ford the owners of the name. The MachE GT is faster than 90% of all production mustangs but “it’s not a real Mustang I want the slower one because it’s traditional” SMH

@@jerryp3551 I know that definitions are a hard concept for someone such as yourself living in a world of ever changing pronouns and such. But hey, get yourself one of those gay EV’s. A “Mach E” is perfect for your non-binary lifestyle. 😂

@Paul DeLucchi what, it's like a password lock entry

I agree great feature. Hope Ford always keeps that feature, very handy.

@Paul DeLucchi Ford started that option in 1980. (I'm not sure if it was reliable at first, but I think people who had it, liked it.)

You can reset your code with a master code. A Ford technician showed me that trick. I used to change codes in parking lots back in high school.

Yes, I agree. The cost of replacing the battery or even the motor. People don’t think of that. Ironically, a Mercedes’ hybrid owner has to replace the battery in his Mercedes’ and the cost is 20 000$ and the vehicle isn’t worth that.

Tesla batteries are rated for 1 million miles. So, you’re more likely to buy a new car before you replace the battery.

@@prodantech Can you prove that

@@pugnos1Edit! I was replying to the wrong comment. Haha. The million mile battery spec is determined by accelerated lab testing. I suppose we’ll see how that goes in real life. Even if we get half of that, then that would be pretty amazing. There have been some older Model S’s with newer battery tech that have crossed the half million mile mark.

@@prodantech making stuff up is fun!

When a switch goes out on a window in 5 years it will be $1000 to fix it. $500 for the switch $500 labor. There’s nothing really to go wrong,,,,,these two are so full of S

It’s not that the life of the brake fluid has increased, it’s that the life of the vehicle decreased 😃
