Electric Car Shopping Guide

The Ford Motor Company has a long history of innovation, so it’s no surprise that our sustainability efforts are a resounding success. An emerging focus on electric cars is highlighted by two successful models, with more on their way to Woodhouse Ford of Blair in the near future.

Ford Mustang Mach-E

While it shares its name with another iconic Ford vehicle, the new Ford Mustang Mach-E is a fully electric SUV, and not a gas-powered muscle car. However, its power and performance are easily a match for the Ford Mustang. There are multiple battery pack and electric motor combinations ranging from 266 to 480 horsepower, giving you the choice of efficiency, range, or sheer power.

All motors are paired with a one-speed automatic transmission. Rear-wheel is standard, but all-wheel drive is available. The Ford Mustang Mach-E lets you customize your ride, as it comes with three drive settings: Whisper, Engage, and Unbridled. 

Ford Mustang Mach-E Range

You’ll be able to travel up to 314 miles* in your Ford Mustang Mach-E. There are three ways to charge it. You can add about three miles of range per hour with a 120-volt outlet, 20 to 30 miles per hour with a 240-volt outlet, or about 60 miles of range in ten minutes on a Level 3 DC fast charging station.

Ford F-150 Lightning 

With the Ford F-150 Lightning, you will get two electric motors, the choice of a standard or extended-range battery, and 2,000 pounds of hauling capability. The standard-range model offers 426 horsepower and up to 7,700 pounds of towing. The extended-range model increases output to 563 horsepower, and towing to 10,000 pounds. 

Ford F-150 Lightning Range

On a full charge, you’ll be able to travel up to 230 miles in your Ford F-150 Lightning with the Standard-Range battery. The driving range for the Extended-Range battery is 300 miles. A DC fast charging station will get your battery up to an 80-percent charge in around 45 minutes.

The bad news is that demand for Ford EVs outpaces supply, so you’ll need to place a pre-order for these vehicles. The good news is that your patience will be rewarded by a peerless driving experience. To learn more about current and upcoming electric models, get in touch with Woodhouse Ford of Blair.
