Mach-E gets a makeover

0 0 October 09, 2025 Edit this post

Ford Australia has made significant changes to its slowing-selling electric Mustang Mach-E.

It's hardly surprising, considering the Mustang outsells the Mach-E at the rate of more than 10 to 1, according to the latest sales figures.

A new model is expected in dealerships by the end of the year, bringing enhanced performance, greater efficiency and a refreshed styling.

There's three grades to choose from: Select, Premium and GT, priced from $65,990 plus on-roads.

Mustang Mach-E Select rear-wheel drive, $65,990
Mustang Mach-E Premium extended-range rear-wheel drive, $80,490
Mustang Mach-E GT, high-performance all-wheel drive $98,490

The flagship Mach-E GT receives a substantial performance boost, with maximum system power increasing from 358 to 434kW of power, and from 860 to 955Nm of torque.

These increases are complemented by an increased estimated range, from 490 to 515km (WLTP).

Premium actually loses a couple of kilowatts, dropping from 216 to 212kW, but gets a bump in torque from 430 to 525Nm.

The entry-level Select hasn't been forgotten either, with power rising from 198 to 212kW and torque from 430 to 525Nm to match the Premium.

Charging times have also improved for both the Premium and GT, dropping from an estimated 45 minutes to 36 minutes to recharge from 10-80 per cent with a 150kW DC fast charger.

A key enhancement across the entire lineup is the addition of a new heat pump, designed to improve the vehicle's energy efficiency while heating or cooling the cabin.

Both Select and Premium variants benefit from new suspension hardware and tuning that aims to provide a more comfortable ride without losing the Mach-E's sporting feel.

For MY25 the non-GT models feature updated sway bars, springs and dampers.

The 2025 Mustang Mach-E also introduces several design and feature updates both inside and out:

Updated Wheel Designs - All models in the range will sport new alloy wheel designs.
Refined Exterior Styling - The Premium series now features Matte Black lower front, rear, and side bumper cladding, with wheel arch mouldings changing from gloss black to body colour. The GT model boasts a refreshed grille design.
Streamlined Interior - A new column-mounted mono-stable shifter replaces the previous rotary gear dial, creating more space in the centre console for enhanced storage options.
Improved Seating Comfort - Front row seats have been upgraded to offer 10-way power adjustment, replacing the previous 8-way configuration.
Unified Headlight Design - The Select series now comes standard with the same projector beam headlights as Premium and GT models, ensuring consistent lighting performance across the lineup.

For the new model year, customers can choose from eight colours, including six new options.

There's Eruption Green, Molten Magenta, Terrain, Velocity Blue, Glacier Grey, and Grabber Yellow.

Shadow Black continues as the no-cost exterior colour option, while prestige paint is available for $700.

The updated 2025.00MY Mustang Mach-E will be available for customer deliveries starting from October, 2025.

"Ford Australia is focused on delivering a more compelling package in the expanding electric vehicle market," Ford's Ambrose Henderson said.

"The MY25 Mustang Mach-E does exactly that, offering enhanced features, striking new design inside and out, along with more power for Select and GT variants, and a new, energy efficient heat pump for the entire line up, reinforcing our commitment to sustainability and innovation."
