The electric car was recognized for its high efficiency, which it demonstrated over long distance drives. It originated in John O’Groats, a place on the north-eastern tip of Scotland.

According to Ford, an independent analysis of the data showed that the Mustang Mach-E traveled with electric power of about 6.5 miles per kilowatt hour. Based on a truly usable battery capacity of 88 kilowatt hours (kWh), the efficiency achieved shows a range of over 500 miles. This corresponds to a little over 800 kms on a single battery charge and thus exceeds the factory specification of 200 kms as per the WLTP standard for this variant of the Mustang Mach-E.
A total of 840 miles (1,351 km) from the north-east to the south-west of the island – the largest distance that can be covered by road in Great Britain – required only two small charging stops with a total duration of less than 45 minutes. , Ford reports the record drive was all about allaying potential border fears and doubts about the everyday suitability of electric vehicles.
