Anthony Posted April 13, 2019 Author Share Posted April 13, 2019 That second pic look just like a jacked up photoshopped Mustang. Not buying these drawings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpd80 Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 No, it's from a British magazine site that keeps misquoting Model E as Mustang based, not Mustang inspired. in the space of a day, they changed their previous rendering to look more like a Mustang based on what they thought they heard, not what was actually said. We know that hackett made Ford redo the styling of Model E to make it more desirable for people to won and drive, so it will have some of that Mustang DNA but certainly not a direct copy. We may however be approaching a time where Ford will start offering the performance oriented buyer more choices than just an ICE based package. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.I. Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Ford is preparing the Mustang car replacement for the time when cars will no longer exist. In between, some Mustangs will share the “brand”. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twintornados Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Back seat entrance and exit will be horrible (yes, I know, not much different than now, but who really sits in the back seat of a Mustang anyway?)...do not "pollute" the linage of Mustang with this attempt.....better off using recently departed Aussie Falcon body lines and four door setup, however, the marketplace has spoken...sedans are a non-starter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AGR Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 For those who hate the renderings, sorry. The Mach E may not look exactly like them, but it will be similar. We've already been shown official renderings of the front and back, and it has leaked that the Mach E will be a crossover coupe. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

passis Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Don't these renderings, and possibly the car itself, resemble a bit the Evos concept? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope the greenhouse depicted on the blue one is not nearly as pinched as that - the bunker style greenhouse is out of style. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

llinthicum1 Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 A four door SUV with the pony emblem will never work. I had always believed that the Mach E would be the name for the high performance, Hybrid Mustang. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbone Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 Just call it the Model E. It represents Ford’s first legitimate long rang electric vehicle, which will usher in the next generation of Ford vehicles. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpd80 Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 From what I gather the Mach E Utility is pretty much like a Tesla with flat battery pack on the floor and electric drive front and back and every bit as impressive as a Tesla but won't be shared with Lincoln. The new EVs being built from about 2023 at Flat Rock are on an all new platform, that will be Lincoln's first EV. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This ^^ This car could be as important as the Model T as it ushers in the future for Ford mobility........so it doesn't need to Mustang name. Ford Model E would work perfectly (assuming copyright etc) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
