prices for the hot Ford Mustang Mach-E GT have been announced. The performance-focused version of the electric SUV starts from £67,225, which makes it a rival for high-end versions of the Tesla model Y. It’s available to order now.
The Mustang Mach-e GT was revealed and displayed at the 2021 Goodwood festival of Speed, ahead of deliveries starting later this year. It has a blistering 0–62mph time of 3.7 seconds, which makes it the fastest-accelerating five-seat Ford ever.

Its powertrain uses two electric motors to drive all four wheels, providing a combined output of 480bhp and 860Nm of torque. The 88kWh battery pack offers a maximum range of 310 miles and support for 150kW charging means that the battery pack can recharge from 10–80 per cent capacity in around 45 minutes when connected to a DC rapid charger.
To cope with the higher power output, Ford has fitted the Mach-e GT with MagneRide adaptive suspension with dedicated settings. Brembo brakes are also fitted for the same reason.
Ford has improved the tyres, too, fitting special Pirelli units which can better handle the increased torque, and the powertrain has been calibrated for a rear-biased power delivery for a more entertaining drive.
