I know this video is two years old, but I just want to say that I've watched it about five times over those two years and bought my Mach E a couple days ago, largely because this review really gave me a feel for the car and made me want it. So thank you for helping me get a really great car!
@Christian Ball you sound like mamas boy I bet your parents bought your car and pay your bills just remember those Tesla's never going sound or drive like a v8 they probably sound like a rc car and yea I can't afford a electric car but I won't trade my v8 for one either 😂
It's so great that Ford put in a physical volume knob. As a zoomer and software engineer you would expect me to say that a car should be all digital but I strongly disagree. Don't reinvent the wheel. Physical feedback is always better.
@@garytryan It is rare in the sense if an EV. Most EVs that rely on digitzation and screens typically make the volume controls a touchscreen button or slider. If they're feeling generous, they may include physical volume buttons, but still no physical volume knobs.
each time doug says "THISSS", his power increases by 10% and it adds up and allows him to change his height at will. Some days he is 6"3, some days he is 6"4. Truly a god.
as an owner I can share that I’ve been surprised how much I enjoy driving this car… the range can be as high as 250 miles yet during winter months the range drops in a rather dramatic way…not really a concern for daily driving but could make a difference if on a road trip on really cold weather
@@dolfanchambers84 My parents have a LR AWD. It can do 250+ km during winter (charged to 80%) with mostly highway driving using both the acceleration and AC as in a fossil. It isn't what they advertise, but it ain't too bad. The summer gives you about 120 km more, depending on driving style.

I’m know I’m late to the party, but this is my first vehicle that was reviewed by Doug. It’s his review that made me test drive it. The drive is what made me buy it. Great vehicle.

I wouldn’t, these crossovers are just a lifted car. Cant carry any more luggage than sedan which shocked me and they get awful gas mileage. They drive and brake worse than a car. I had an 07 grand Cherokee, I absolutely loved it but quickly remembered how stupid they are when I got my Silverado dually. I can actually fit stuff in it, tow a trailer and it gets 2mpg better freeway. Jeep got 18mpg. It actually does what these crossovers pretend to do. My only real complaint was the fuel economy.

Cant fit much for groceries if you have two kids with you tho.
@@MrPland1992 yep and that’s why I’ll never understand why people buy them in droves. Like take for example the modern Ford Explorer, that thing seats 5 with no 3rd row option and the trunk area is pretty small and not the best dimensions to pack stuff into (I know this because I rented one) compare that to the now disconnected (because Ford never bothered to give any attention to it) Ford Flex. Same or better gas mileage, 3rd row that doesn’t take up the whole trunk, and space for days in that thing for both cargo and passengers. And nobody bought it because Ford never advertised it and people never saw it
@@UA-camAIbot I think they had the eco boost and are very fast with a tune. The dashboard is awful tho, that’s the only car over ever sat in and said “wtf is this?” I flip cars and it’s the ones I’d hate the most that I’d fall in love with. Minivans are the best example. Good fuel economy, smooth ride, room for everything and fairly compact. I love wagons as well. They really should re-engineer the mini van with a kickass aggressive design. There are a lot of odd cars they did that with. The Chevy SS and g8 were never advertised and were excellent. Not any worse on fuel than an accord and much safer. I’m curious what people are looking for in new cars nowadays. This tech stuff is absolutely ridiculous albeit awesome. All that crap is going to fail and total a good running car. Even if it drives fine no one wants a Christmas tree of fault lights on the dash.
Exactly, early EVs looked like Fisher price cars, then Tesla came in with a nice sport look, then other manufacturers started to catch up. Now there are more and more EVs that I would see myself drive (if I had the money 🙃)
@@Skullbrothers Mitsu can actually survive without their automotive brand, they own many companies and make their own products, when I went to school, our classroom had a mitsu air conditioner.
I think the front storage latch is more of a safety concern, like a suicide door. Imagine accidentally hitting that button to open it while on the highway - That's not coming down before you get into an accident, and the same issue with accidentally opening could arise if there was a handle at the front, a tree branch or something might hook it
It’s all fun until someone finds out that the “fake fingers” are actual fingers of Ford testers who lost them when trying out the new door closing mechanism
Many of the reviews that I've seen have been done by tech reviewers as opposed to car reviewers which I think makes a big difference. And plus nobody else is Doug.
We walked by the march-E while looking at the New F -150 hybrid. I had no idea it was electric. It looked like a Ford Mustang SUV.. and it was. We were impressed with the style which looked similar to the Porsche Cayenne.
I mean my 74 dodge doors wouldn't open after a freezing rain so I'm not sure if these will be better or worse. Why are you assuming they will be any different? Heck I suspect with a good seal and the power opening they may be much better.
@@marquil26 It's not garbage, just seriously overpriced for the quality that it actually delivers on. I, for one, prefer sound to actually be insulated and interior decor to be of acceptably high quality when I dish out around 65k (with tax breaks) for a Model S. Instead, you just hear tons of tire noise and pretty cheap feeling interiors.
I actually agree with that dial thing. I have button (I guess) on my new Prius. I don’t really like it. It doesn’t seem to react fast enough for me. It’s not intuitive. I’m glad it has a mute button next to it but I don’t think I would need that if I had this dial.
For us Canadians, the front "handle" looks like it's just going to hold a bunch of ice/snow in it, right for you to put your fingers into. Poor design choice.
@@fokakya which is suprising to me, because Ford is based in Michigan, where we do get snow. But I looked at the door handles thinking, now they've made opening the door a two step process, why. Instead of just pulling on a handle, you have to press a button then pull on a handle.
@@brandonryre415 you would have to pay me to get behind the wheel of that, if it was dirt cheap I would buy it and flip it for higher than I paid for it
This is what I keep saying! Mach-E would have been a reference to Mustang Mach-1, but still distinct and kept the Mustang name for sporty coupes. "MaRkEtInG!!"
Yes, every car which has an engine there. How often do you need to access the engine versus how often do you use the trunk/frunk? It’s a lazy design, they should have changed the locking mechanism to be the same as the trunk
Ford: "We call it the Mustang Mach-E." Everyone: "Ooo." Ford: "It's electric." Everyone: "Yay!" Ford: "It's has the Mustang brand name, it's the electric family SUV." Everyone: *Ford is now a disgrace to the world and is getting hate.*
@@jacks0n_sheehan That's what I thought too! But Ford somehow managed to pull it off. www.google.com/amp/s/www.motor1.com/news/380563/ford-mustang-lithium-manual-sema/amp/
@Jackson’s Car Reviews Unless they make one with a transmission. Rich rebuilds has an electric mini with a manual transmission. Your face palm is ridiculous and looking down on people won’t get others to watch your review channel.
Anyone watching this later... I'm posting Oct 2022.. Canadian. Got 2 key fobs with the car. App opens the frunk now. The profile system he mentions can also be tied your individual key fob, door code OR phone now. Not just phone. It is one of the best features of the car for homes with 2 or 3 drivers. In Canada the car comes with the portable charger that is capable of 32A on the NEMA 240V. We are still very new owners - but after a fun day of playing with all the features - we are extremely impressed. Early reviews won't do justice to the updated experience.
Update, they still haven't fixed the issue and now the weather stripping around all the doors is falling out and they don't know why. Second set has been replaced
I do too, and I still hate the tablet sticking out of the dash, which is one of the things I really hate about the Teslas. I do like that they seem to have corrected at least some of that tablet practicality problem. The whole tablet-glued-to-the-dash vision is just so irritating!
I feel like they missed an opportunity, they should have revived the thunderbird. Thunderbird is the perfect name for an electric car. Makes way more sense than mustang
Other brands tried that and some dealership owners opted to be bought out by the company instead of spending well into the 6 figures to install the super chargers. Also in my area most if not all dealerships are located on the outskirts of the city meaning you would have to drive 20-30 minutes out of the city just to charge the car then drive 20-30 minutes back. Not nearly as convenient as having gas stations everywhere.
I saw a comparison between the Mach E and Model Y. They discussed range. It said the STATED range for the Model Y is higher but in their comparison test, the Mach E actually exceeded the stated range and the Model Y didn't come close to their stated range and the Mach E actually had a longer range in real world driving.
But with the difference in charging networks, do you spend more time on the road just from waiting for one or the other to recharge? Like less range doesn't matter so much if the chargers are faster so you lose less time overall, especially if that means wait time is closer to the time you'd want for a driving break (bathroom/food).
I just brought one of these cars and I have to say this is the first EV that proves to me you don’t need Tesla to make it an electric vehicle. Not only it just looks and feels so much better but it also having excellent technology, features, equipment etc. It really is Ford versus the world. They are going at it with Tesla and Jeep in 2021 and I’m just very impressed this is a different Ford.
this is basically Android compared to Tesla being Apple. Here you get a funky design, lower quality, random gimmicks, less practicality, and less compatibility - but at a lower price
It should have been called the “Ford Model E” - a tribute to the Model T but with a modern twist with the “E” obviously standing for electric. A new competitor to the EV wacky races.
Ohhh..... hii 8-bit guy!! Audience member: (who the hell is the 8-bit guy) Another guy: (Yea idk, i just came here for the free booze...) Anyone else just bored reading comments 🥱. Thanks for being a good sport 8-bit guy.
Agreed. Also how can someone say “no one cares”? The mustang logo faces left because a proper race horse goes right . “a wild horse”. The whole Mustang brand is to go against the flow and be innovative, which the Mach E does, but it doesn’t stay true to the heritage of the pony cars that came before it. It’s the Pony emblem for Christ sake. I think the new SUV is insanely beautiful and features exciting new technologies but to keep the badge on there is insulating the Mustang fanatics, possibly a bad move by Ford.
Should have called it the "Model T" just to piss off Tesla.
wow thats so much better than MuStAnG
Thats for real, their not playing the game right
I think ford actually owns the model E name
Ford using the Model T for this is more brilliant than Mustang on so many levels. Seriously, Ford missed a huge opportunity here.
Especially since they wouldn't let Tesla call the Model 3 the Model E
Those crowds aint gonna hear this one coming...
Now the whole family can kill crowds

Like take for example the modern Ford Explorer, that thing seats 5 with no 3rd row option and the trunk area is pretty small and not the best dimensions to pack stuff into (I know this because I rented one) compare that to the now disconnected (because Ford never bothered to give any attention to it) Ford Flex. Same or better gas mileage, 3rd row that doesn’t take up the whole trunk, and space for days in that thing for both cargo and passengers. And nobody bought it because Ford never advertised it and people never saw it
@@UA-camAIbot I think they had the eco boost and are very fast with a tune. The dashboard is awful tho, that’s the only car over ever sat in and said “wtf is this?” I flip cars and it’s the ones I’d hate the most that I’d fall in love with. Minivans are the best example. Good fuel economy, smooth ride, room for everything and fairly compact. I love wagons as well. They really should re-engineer the mini van with a kickass aggressive design.
There are a lot of odd cars they did that with. The Chevy SS and g8 were never advertised and were excellent. Not any worse on fuel than an accord and much safer. I’m curious what people are looking for in new cars nowadays. This tech stuff is absolutely ridiculous albeit awesome. All that crap is going to fail and total a good running car. Even if it drives fine no one wants a Christmas tree of fault lights on the dash.
@@MrPland1992 yeah like my aunt has a Honda oddesy and despite it being kind of ugly that thing fit an entire bunk bed with room to spare
Btw the front trunk also doubles as a cooler! Those two circular cut outs are cup holders and has a drain plug at the bottom to drain the melted ice!

Love it! Thank you Tesla for kicking the industry in the ass and getting them to finally put out electric cars I would actually buy.
I really like it too. I was looking for a model y alternative that still gives me that federal credit and I think I found it
Cute that you think this is coming from Tesla.
Exactly, early EVs looked like Fisher price cars, then Tesla came in with a nice sport look, then other manufacturers started to catch up. Now there are more and more EVs that I would see myself drive (if I had the money 🙃)
Alot of ev look like toy cars just change the look a little

I think the front storage latch is more of a safety concern, like a suicide door. Imagine accidentally hitting that button to open it while on the highway - That's not coming down before you get into an accident, and the same issue with accidentally opening could arise if there was a handle at the front, a tree branch or something might hook it
My guess would be that it would be programmed to not open unless in park or neutral and only below a very low speed.

I’ve seen a lot of Mach E reviews, but this is by far the best and most in-depth. Great Job Doug,
Many of the reviews that I've seen have been done by tech reviewers as opposed to car reviewers which I think makes a big difference. And plus nobody else is Doug.
As usual
You must be new here🤪
This is a paid advertisement not a review ...
We walked by the march-E while looking at the New F -150 hybrid. I had no idea it was electric. It looked like a Ford Mustang SUV.. and it was. We were impressed with the style which looked similar to the Porsche Cayenne.

We made door handles so useless, people would rather not even use them.

For us Canadians, the front "handle" looks like it's just going to hold a bunch of ice/snow in it, right for you to put your fingers into. Poor design choice.
@@fokakya which is suprising to me, because Ford is based in Michigan, where we do get snow. But I looked at the door handles thinking, now they've made opening the door a two step process, why. Instead of just pulling on a handle, you have to press a button then pull on a handle.

Underrated comment

Good point. Wow.
It could be their electric sports car, like the I8 BMW. If I was their designer, I'd do it
I actually think the frunk opening is genius...like hoods were originally designed to be opened, kind of well thought in case your 12v battery dies. 😉
If Ford just put the super-chargers at all their dealerships, they should have and instant network.
besides, it's a ford, it would be good for it to charge as close to a repair station as possible
oh wow, why didn't they just think of that!? you must be one of them fancy executives in waiting types
@@CBielski87 or maybe just a little slow
Other brands tried that and some dealership owners opted to be bought out by the company instead of spending well into the 6 figures to install the super chargers. Also in my area most if not all dealerships are located on the outskirts of the city meaning you would have to drive 20-30 minutes out of the city just to charge the car then drive 20-30 minutes back. Not nearly as convenient as having gas stations everywhere.
This is actually a really good idea. Didn't think of this

You can open the door all in one motion. Press it with your pointer finger and grab it with the rest of your fingers when the door it popping out.
I saw a comparison between the Mach E and Model Y. They discussed range. It said the STATED range for the Model Y is higher but in their comparison test, the Mach E actually exceeded the stated range and the Model Y didn't come close to their stated range and the Mach E actually had a longer range in real world driving.
But with the difference in charging networks, do you spend more time on the road just from waiting for one or the other to recharge? Like less range doesn't matter so much if the chargers are faster so you lose less time overall, especially if that means wait time is closer to the time you'd want for a driving break (bathroom/food).

Agreed. Also how can someone say “no one cares”? The mustang logo faces left because a proper race horse goes right . “a wild horse”. The whole Mustang brand is to go against the flow and be innovative, which the Mach E does, but it doesn’t stay true to the heritage of the pony cars that came before it. It’s the Pony emblem for Christ sake. I think the new SUV is insanely beautiful and features exciting new technologies but to keep the badge on there is insulating the Mustang fanatics, possibly a bad move by Ford.
