Full Australian specifications for the Ford Mustang Mach-E have been confirmed, with details live on the Ford Australia website, where customers can also reserve their vehicle.
The all-electric Mustang Mach-E – the first production Ford ever developed from the ground up to deliver pure-electric, zero-emission driving – is arriving for customers in Australia from Q4 2023.
The Mustang Mach-E introduces the freedom, performance, and iconic character of the world’s best-selling sports car to all-electric vehicle customers. Powered by a responsive, energy-efficient, battery-electric drivetrain, the first-ever SUV member of the Mustang family delivers impressive performance and acceleration.
The Australian Ford Mustang Mach-E line up starts with the ‘Select’ RWD model at $79,9901, plus on-road costs. The complete lineup with pricing and performance is as follows:
Mach-E Select | Mach-E Premium | Mach-E GT | |
Recommended Retail Pricing1 | $79,990 + ORCs | $91,665 + ORCs | $107,665 + ORCs |
Battery Capacity | 71 kWh | 91 kWh | 91 kWh |
WLTP Range2 | 470km | 600km | 490km |
kW | 198 | 216 | 358 |
Nm | 430 | 430 | 860 |
0 to 100 km/h3 | 6.6 seconds | 6.2 seconds | 3.7 seconds |
“Mach-E is an extremely exciting addition to our EV line-up, and brings all the excitement of Mustang, with the tech, performance and luxury expected of a fully-electric SUV. We can’t wait for Mach-E customers to get behind the wheel in just a few months,” said Andrew Birkic, President and CEO, Ford Australia.
Ford Mustang Mach-E GT Set to Thrill
Propelled by more torque than any production Ford road vehicle ever offered to customers in Australia, the Mustang Mach-E GT can sprint from 0-100 km/h in 3.73 seconds – making it Ford Australia’s fastest accelerating vehicle.
A dual-motor, all-wheel drive, battery-electric powertrain, exclusive to GT MagneRide® adaptive suspension and high-performance Brembo braking system combine for sports car responsiveness and agility. The Mustang Mach-E GT also features unique tyres that are specially designed to distribute the extreme torque to the road surface.
In addition, the Untame Plus4 mode – for track use only – is designed to help drivers balance the powertrain output on a track for lap time consistency – simultaneously adjusting traction and stability control for a more exciting driving experience where conditions allow.
Bespoke GT specification includes Ford Performance front sports seats, standard 20-inch alloy wheels and unique body styling – further differentiating the premium SUV’s sleek and powerful design while retaining the unmistakable signatures of the world’s best-selling sports car.
Safety, Security and Driver Assistance5
Mustang Mach-E Select and Premium have earned the top five-star safety rating by independent testing body, ANCAP. GT is unrated.
Standard equipment includes autonomous emergency braking (AEB) with car-to-car, vulnerable road user, junction assist, and back-over functionality. Lane keep assist, lane departure warning, emergency lane keeping and an advance speed assistance system are also standard.
LFP battery chemistry to benefit Ford customers
The Mach-E Select boasts a 71kWh lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery, offering a driving range of up to 470 kilometres2.
Offering LFP on Mach-E Select – in addition to the nickel cobalt manganese (NCM) batteries found in Premium and GT – allows Ford customers to choose a Mustang Mach-E with unique battery performance characteristics most aligned with their needs.
LFP batteries are very durable and tolerate more frequent and faster charging while using fewer high-demand, high-cost materials. These LFP batteries will power a variety of affordable, next-generation Ford EV passenger vehicles and trucks under development.
LFP battery technology also helps reduce reliance on critical minerals such as nickel and cobalt, and is in line with Ford’s work to create an EV supply chain that upholds its commitments to sustainability and human rights.
Colours
Mustang Mach-E will be available in an eye-catching range of seven colours. Shadow Black is a standard paint colour, while all others are prestige paint that comes at an additional cost of $700.

Shadow Black | ✔️ | |
Star White | ✔️ | |

The Ford Australia Charge Continues
The Mach-E is part of an ongoing customer-focused electrification strategy that will give Australian customers the choice of at least five new Ford electrified vehicles by the end of 2024.
This year Ford Australia has already launched the E-Transit full-electric commercial van, with E-Transit Custom BEV and Puma BEV to follow in 2024.
Ford Australia’s EV rollout forms part of Ford’s global investment of US$50 billion in electrification through 2026.

Meet the Mach-E Family
Mustang Mach-E Select
Kicking off the line-up in Australia is the Mach-E Select which is priced from $79,990* (MLP). This model boasts a 71kWh lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery mated to a single electric motor which delivers 198kW and 430Nm of torque via the rear wheels. New for 2023, the LFP battery will allow Ford to offer the Mach-E with fresh technology proving to be exceptionally durable, using fewer high-demand, high-cost materials and with the ability to sustain fast charging as it approaches maximum capacity. The Mach-E Select will offer a driving range of up to 470 kilometres1.
Mustang Mach-E Select is generously equipped with a large 15.5-inch infotainment screen (standard across the range) running Ford’s latest-generation SYNC® 4A2 system. For enhanced visibility when parking a 360-degree camera7 is standard as is a B&O™3 sound system with 10 speakers and subwoofer. Wireless phone4 charging as standard means you can conveniently charge your compatible smartphone without the hassle of a charging cable.
Across the line-up there’s plenty of room for five people with excellent leg and headroom in the front and back. There are ISOFIX mounts on the two outboard seats and top tether anchors for all three back seats, making installing child seats easy. The rear seats fold 60:40 to increase rear luggage space when needed.
Mach-E Select features Black Onyx Sensico seats in the front and back; a premium artificial leather upholstery. The front seats are eight-way powered.
On the outside, Select boasts 19-inch alloy wheels, a panoramic glass roof and Ford’s clever E-Latch door handles which replace conventional door handles for improved efficiency, as well as a front-trunk or ‘frunk’ for additional luggage space.
Mustang Mach-E Premium
The Mustang Mach-E Premium is priced from $92,990* (MLP) and boasts a bigger 91kWh battery delivering 216kW and 430Nm of torque via a single motor on the rear axle. This model balances enhanced performance with efficiency, delivering the longest potential driving range of the line-up – with up to 600 kilometres1 of range.
Building on Select, Premium adds luxury touches like LED projector headlamps, premium-finish scuff plates and pedals, and interior upgrades, including red contrast stitching to its Black Onyx Sensico seats (front and rear), black headliner, and multi-colour ambient lighting as standard.
Mustang Mach-E GT
For the ultimate in performance, the Mustang Mach-E GT can streak from 0-100km/h in 3.7 seconds5 (with a 1ft. rollout) and is priced from $108,990* (MLP).
It features the same 91kWh battery as Mach-E Premium but runs two electric motors (one at the front and one at the rear) delivering 358kW and 860Nm of torque to all four wheels with a driving range of up to 490 kilometres1. Mustang Mach-E GT will be the fastest accelerating Ford the Blue Oval offers in Australia.
As the performance-oriented model in the line-up, Mach-E GT features MagneRide® Active Suspension which can adjust up to 1000 times a second allowing the dampers to respond in real-time to changing road conditions or driving style. The system also automatically adjusts damping force based on the selected drive mode.
Speaking of drive modes, GT adds Untame Plus6 to the modes available on the other models: Active, Whisper or Untame. This setting is designed for closed-course driving only and adjusts everything from battery cooling to steering to throttle response, traction and stability controls, all-wheel drive strategy and ensures consistent power and torque delivery for longer-lasting thrills.
Ensuring it stops as well as it goes, Mustang Mach-E GT runs Brembo® Flexira front performance brakes, 20-inch alloys wrapped in bespoke Pirelli tyres.
The ‘performance’ continues inside with a pair of bolstered Ford Performance sport front seats designed to support driver and front passenger during spirited driving and finished in a soft-touch leather-like material.
All models feature Mach-E’s one pedal drive system7 which, once activated allows you to drive just using the accelerator. Take your foot off the throttle and the Mach-E will begin slowing down, recapturing energy usually lost during deceleration, making it perfect for start-stop traffic.
Your Mach-E in the Palm of Your Hands
Like other Ford vehicles, Mach-E features FordPass8 connectivity which lets you access a range of information about your vehicle from afar via the FordPass App on your smartphone, as well as key Electric Vehicle (EV) connected services and charging information including:
