    Great video, Max. A few observations from an owner: Door badge: 4 = AWD, X = extended range battery. Power liftgate should fully open from one press of the exterior button. 2021s have kick to open liftgate, but was removed later due to parts shortages. Liftgate will also open from the main screen. Front trunk will also open from the main screen and the exterior number pad. Trunk/frunk release buttons are kind of hidden in the pic of the Mach-E on the drive mode screen. All four windows are auto up/down from the drivers door. Manual high beams are not controlled on the headlight knob, they’re activated by pushing or pulling the turn signal lever. Auto high beams are standard equipment. The shortcuts at the bottom of the screen are arranged in most recently used. You can swipe them down to remove them. BlueCruise doesn’t disengage like Autopilot or FSD Beta that just give up, BC can move between hands-free and hands-on modes, but the vehicle is still assisting the driver. If you’re not on a major highway, you can still use hands-on radar cruise and lane centering. When you map a route in the Ford nav or Apple Maps in CarPlay, the Mach-E will automatically add charging stops to your route if needed. Routing to a charger using the Ford nav will precondition the battery when you’re 20 miles out.

      does the car adding mapping stops in apple maps also work in google maps since i have android auto? Do I have to use fords maps in order to start the preconditioning of the battery?

    Thanks so much, Max, for this video. I sent it right away to my friend who just got a Mach E. This is such a great public service to help newcomers to EVs so they can enjoy them as soon as possible. The learning curve can be intimidating but I believe that once you go electric you never go back.

    A very very useful video. I am just getting my first and new Mustang Mach E this week ... and this is a great intro. After test driving both the Tesla Model Y and the Mustang Mach E I found that the Mustang Mach E is much closer to a "normal" car as I drove for the past many many years ..., making the switch to an EV so easy. The Tesla is super futuristic and cool but the fact that the Mustang nicely combines the old and the new era makes it my choice... Thanks for the great video !

    Max, nice video, I have a question you or someone at Out of Spec maybe can answer.
    Today I did a quick experiment on energy usage with our MME GT. We’ve owned our 2023 GT since late October 2023 and now have just over 2900 miles. There is a town that is 39 mile trip for us and it’s 20 miles on an interstate and the rest on 55mph state highway with a few stoplights.
    We’ve done this trip enough times to expect 2.5 -2.7 miles/kWh under the following circumstances: cabin heat 68-70F, seat heaters on for about 5 minutes, steering wheel heat on about 10 minutes, HVAC auto and with 1 bar of 3 illuminated, AC off, radio on, cruise control at speed limit +2, lane keeping assist/blue cruise on, and headlights in Auto.
    Today we did the trip and I turned the lights to off and the car’s m/kwh computer showed 3.0 miles/kwh.
    Temperatures and weather have varied but today was in the mix for a normal trip.
    That’s a huge consideration if planning a trip, that’s potentially a 10% range difference!
    Just looking for your experiences.

    The Guesso Meter isn’t really any different then any other Ice vehicle. It’s always based on how you drive and it will change during fuel [or charge] consumption.

    Ford's navigation system in not worth C _ _ P. I began to load in the address of the location I needed to go. As I was inputting the address. Ford Navigation began to download totally different locations. Most in different states. When I finished inputting the address. The navigation could not find the address. Then I inputted the location name. I t found it. It showed a different location. This is the third time I attempted to use Ford's Navigation and it was totally wrong.

    A mustang is easy. You put in the key, turn it, and tap the accelerator to give it some gas. Then you let her warm up for a minute or two, put her in gear, and shart shifting. Pop into a gas station for a top off, then have some fun.
    That suv in the video? That's not a stang. Not sure who slapped a pony logo on that rectanglular, plug-in, battery box but it's not a mustang. You ain't fooling real car guys with your bs.
