Mustang Mach-E reached 916.74 km on a single charge

In April, Ford introduced a refreshed edition of its first all-electric crossover, the Mustang Mach-E, with a longer range than its predecessor. Now the car has achieved a truly remarkable result by traveling 916.74 kilometers on a single battery charge, a new world record for a production EV.

For this venture, Ford chose the Mach-E Premium Extended Range RWD driven by Kevin Booker and Sam Clarke. The plan was to cover as much distance as possible within 24 hours on one battery charge, and they chose the route of Norfolk, Lincolnshire, Yorkshire, Nottinghamshire, Leicestershire and Cambridgeshire. They wanted to simulate conditions in the real world, so they used urban and rural roads. They also used several methods to prove their success, including independently verified footage, watch readings, GPS data, and battery level information downloaded from Webfleet.

The car was equipped with a 91 kWh battery that provides a range of 600 kilometers (WLTP). However, in order to achieve the record, the team made a few changes, such as fitting a set of 18″ wheels instead of 19″, wrapped in low-rolling-resistance Bridgestone tires that helped generate extra kilometers.

The longest distance traveled by a vehicle with one battery charger is muc022. It is about a vehicle constructed by students, which achieved a range of 2,573.79 km last year.

The car is still covered in camouflage, and what can be seen in the spy photos is a sharper design of the front fascia, thin headlights and hexagonal daytime running lights, a more aggressive intake, and a centrally mounted exhaust system. Also, the interior of the car is similar to the Rivuelto model, which suggests that it could be equipped with a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, an 8.4-inch infotainment system and a 9.1-inch screen for the passenger.
