The Ford Mustang Mach-E has been on sale in Australia for almost a year now and despite a couple of major pricing cuts the Blue Oval’s electric figurehead has failed to find favour with local EV buyers.

So we commandeered the mid-spec Premium version for three months and lived with it day in and day out, targeting 5000 kilometres on the odometer, to see whether the lukewarm reception is warranted or whether Aussie buyers are sleeping on a good thing.

Chasing Cars production manager and custodian of the Mach-E, Tom Place, round the final curve and hands down Part One of our two-part wrap-up of Ford’s likable if ultimately polarising EV.
