Mustang Mach-E GT 0-60 Claims Tested on the Drag Strip | Battery Stress Test

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

We’re at National Trail Raceway in Hebron, Ohio with the 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E GT Performance Edition. Ford makes some pretty bold claims about the performance of its electric pony, and we’re here to attempt to independently validate its 0-60 MPH times on a proper drag strip.
Can it match Ford's 3.5 second stat in real life? What happens as the battery depletes after several runs? Does it stand a chance against the Tesla Model Y Performance? And, what if we put it up against a current generation Ford GT?
Watch to find out how it scored on our tests!

    5:27 I know that with the Chevrolet Bolt EV, it loses power for every 10% the battery state of charge (SOC) dropped below 100%. The Mach-E also appears to have a top buffer of close to 10%, so it's very likely that your 88% run was actually closer to 75% to 80% actual SOC. If that's the case, your peak power was probably down ~10%, which could account for 2 tenths of a second.

    The battery total capacity is 98.7kw with a usable 88 kw. The difference between the two numbers...10.7kw is the buffer which is split roughly half on top and half on the bottom. Which means that if you take half off the top...an 88% SOC would be more equivalent to about 82-83% of total battery capacity.

I'm not understanding why they would have unbridled if the engineers say to use normal mode. Not as fast as the Tesla but still very fast. And at least you proved to all the haters that you can run it all day without heat problems. Also if 18% loss was good for 4 tenths maybe starting at 100% would get you down to 12.2.

The motor literally makes 1/2 the power at higher speeds. Since KZread won't let me post direct links. The drive units used in the front and rear of the Mach E GT is a Borg Warner iM-225. A quick Google of the spec sheet for this motor shows EXACTLY half power at maximum RPM. This is not a software limitation but a design limitation of the motors themselves. The back EMF is so bad at 12,000 rpm it barely makes 100 lb/ft of torque at that speed. This is not opinion but based on OFFICIAL released data from Borg Warner themselves.

Why would it be faster on the drag strip? It is not intuitive. My Mustang has Normal, Sport, Track, and Rain/Ice. The most aggressive throttle response is mapped to Track along with the tightest steering and least traction control. When I go to the drag strip, I do not go to Sport mode.

    Ford is just a "me too" EV manufacture at the moment. They're building an EV based on what they know from building an ICE powered car. That won't cut it when cars, like a Tesla, are doing 9 second 1/4 mile runs at 150+ mph. I was hoping they'd bring a high-performance EV version of the Focus RS to their fleet. But that seems a bust. Ford is terrified of losing market share of the Mustang, so they offer us this "Mach-E" anemic version rather than a fun sport-compact. Let's hope they step up their game. We need the market to be flooded with FUN to drive EVs.

    The MME PE enjoys 5 seconds of full power surge, after which performance ramps down, presumably to keep the heat buildup under control. Imagine if the engineers and performance people at Ford figure out how to extend that 5 seconds of surge to say, about 10 seconds with proper thermal management. Any prediction on the 1/4 time and trap speed? Let me know when that happens; I'll trade in my MME Premium AWD X for the GTPE.

    The pulse might be a limit of the battery, not the thermal management system. Many batteries are rated for maximum continuous and maximum pulse discharge rates. The peak power might only be available as the maximum pulse discharge rate (358 kW or a ~3.5 C discharge rate) for 5 seconds. Often, though, that limit is set by the battery cell manufacturer, and it might or might not be conservative. If Ford determines that it is overly conservatively, they can simply allow the max pulse discharge rate to persist for several seconds longer. The alternative is to reduce the discharge rate slightly (say 325 kW), and possibly sustain that for 8 to 10 seconds. Whether that would end up providing a faster 1/4 mile time is something Ford could test and determine. Basically, they could preset a 1/4 mile launch profile that results in the fastest times.

    What's actually pretty bad is Tesla's autopilot systems that cause their EVs to run into emergency vehicles then into flames so pick your poison. And is that why Auto Trader just gave their assessment of the Tesla Model Y saying it was lackluster, late to the party, not that good and there are and there are better EV'S out there like the Mustang Mach E kzread.info/dash/bejne/gHietZSaqcyfhMo.html

    Unbridled extendex chops the power down by a lot, makes no sense as new f150 does not have these restrictions. Teslas modeY dual motor puts up 4.1s 12.4 1/4mile and has no limitations imposed on it, only state of charge affects it. So this "performance model" isnt really performance. lets put it another way, the new f150 lightning with dual motor (tested at around 4.2sec to 60 with no power cut) will dust this performance model as it is unrestricted, and the lightning is almost 7900lbs, and suposed to be a "work truck".

    Sorry, but with software connectivity problems with the phone and fob (as per other youtuber with a model 3 and mache e) and ford dealership refuse to software fix because of car bricking, not having remote ability to open frunk, (only by hood release inside like ice car) stupid shifter using up possible console space and is harder to reach than having on stalk, vertical screen useless for entertainment, inferior charging infrastructure, narrow tires making handling and performance worse, having speed throttled after 5 sec (due to obvious cooling issues although ford lies and says battery usage which would be an owners discretion anyway), less storage and cabin space than a model 3 in a larger heavier vehicle, and poor engineering in a mess of hoses and clamps increasing risks of parts failure and leaks while carrying about dozens of pounds more cooling fluid etc. (see monroe tear down) No dasham or sentry features, no live footage. (which protects car and has saved us and others from being able to prove fault and harm. No future potential for FSD which tesla is so far ahead right now. Ford could not handle curve on highway. It goes on and on. Oh, and greedy dealers try to mark up price 10k and when potential buyer complains to ford exec, the exec tells them just to buy a tesla? LOL. It has happened more than once apparently. NO THANK YOU. YOU WOULD BE A COMPLETE IDIOT TO BUY ANYTHING BUT A TESLA. I CAN TELL YOU FROM EXPERIENCE. P.S. contrary to what probably most people think, tesla charges less than any other oem I have seen for parts costs. Tesla has said that they do not intend to make large profits on service and supercharging. Don't forget that franchise dealers main profits come from Service. They want to rip you off.

    Wow, this clearly demonstrates how Tesla is WAY AHEAD in terms of battery, motor, and software technology. A model Y performance on the 21inch wheels at 89% SOC does the 1/4 mile in 11.9 seconds at 115mph. I already suspected the MachE GT would not be good thermally and for performance, hence the unbridled extend mode. The KZread channel "out of spec reviews" tested the MachE GT around the canyon and it instantly overheated after just one jab at the throttle. I am sure ford can improved the performance, but overall it is not good at all. The MachE Premium 4X is a better deal around 55K vs almost 60-70K with the add ons like the panoramic roof and ford autopilot thing that is standard on the MachE premium.
