Mustang Mach E | The Result of Forcing EVs

Uploaded 1 year ago by savagegeese

Video Summary

Here is the summary of the YouTube video:
- Since its release, there have been some subtle tweaks to the Mach-E.
- The front end of the car utilizes some of Ford's existing SUV front end parts.
- The battery pack makes up the center plane of the car.
- The short-range battery pack's chemistry has been changed to Lithium Iron Phosphate. It is devoid of nickel and cobalt.
- The LFP chemistry benefits fleet customers because the battery can be charged to 100% more frequently without degradation.
- LFP batteries cannot put out the ultimate power because they are slower.
- Mach-E sales have dropped 21% year-over-year.
- Long range versions have issues with their contactors.
- During DC fast charging, the larger battery pack on the GT models can cause heat to cause these contactors to weld shut or closed.
- This is resulting in a massive recall where control units inside the battery pack are being replaced.
- It's an average car. This means there's no compelling reason to spend more for this vehicle than an internal combustion counterpart in the SUV space.
- It does nothing that EVs do not do already.
- It wasn't built out of passion but rather an emergency to make a car to compete on the market.
- With all of these factors the reviewers do not think many people will miss this vehicle.
