Ford Mustang Mach-E vs Tesla Model Y Comparison

Welcome to the next level of the domestic head-to-head battle.

In the red corner is the Ford Mustang Mach-E. Much has been said about Ford’s dedicated electric-only pony. No matter which side of the is-it-a-real-Mustang debate you fall on, you can’t deny the Mach-E has shaken up the segment, demanding attention in a segment that will get very crowded, very soon.

In the other red corner is the car that Ford so clearly targeted with the Mach-E: the Tesla Model Y. Tesla had first-mover advantage here, and yet the Model Y still holds the edge in (EPA quoted) range, to say nothing of its brand recognition. Tesla is practically synonymous with EVs, like Coca-Cola to pop or Kleenex to tissue paper. Not one of the people that stopped to ask me about the Mach-E did so without invoking the T-word. And there were many of them.

So we did the only thing we could do: we pit these two mid-size all-electric crossovers against one another. What resulted surprised us.
