They 100% should have just called it the Mach-E or Clydesdale, or something different. Its a fine vehicle, and it looks decent too, but it is clearly a marketing thing to get to rope it in with sports cars. I still hope they actually come out with a real electric mustang
I'd drive a Ford Clydesdale
Same though I actually picture it being one is the trucks or SUVs, or a station wagon. I wouldn't argue with it being an electric "muscle car" though
I was shocked they didn't call it a Thunderbird.
That would have been good, reminiscent of the firebird
It's a crossover, selling better than the real mustang doesn't make it a real mustang.
It's not a real mustang unless it was born and bred in Mustang, Oklahoma. Others are just sparkling horses.
Or you know, a 2 door coupe/fastback with an engine at the front and power to the rear, with an emphasis on speed.
