The Ford Mustang Mach-E has been a huge success since the Blue Oval began accepting reservations back in late 2019. It was a bold decision to name and style its first-ever from the ground-up electric vehicle after its most iconic model, the Mustang. That bet has paid off and continues to do so.

Ford Ford Ford "We had previously contemplated building an additional electric vehicle down there in Cuautitlan but our first priority right now is to scale production of the Mach-E given that demand," Drake said. "Our production system is very flexible by design, and we'll utilize multiple North American plants as we build out our future North American lineup."
Major preparation is needed to make that happen. For example, Ford will be working with suppliers to boost supplies of critical Mach-E components like battery cells and electric drive systems.
There's a second Mach-E plant in China but it's dedicated solely to that market. This year, Ford is on track to sell about 60,000 Mach-Es globally. Lincoln Lincoln Lincoln Source Credits: Automotive News
