Electric 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E officially revealed
Ford has revealed the 2021 all-electric Mustang Mach-E
Ford’s hoping the Mustang Mach-E will be a sales hit when it goes on sale late next year, but it definitely won’t be as big as the original pony car
Ford sold over 400,000 Mustangs in the 12 months following its April 1964 debut and more than a million by the end of 1965, but it only has the capability to produce about 50,000 Mustang Mach-Es, regardless of the demand for the all-electric SUV.

Ford began taking orders on Sunday for the Mustang Mach-E, which has a starting price of $44,995, but hadn't previously revealed how many would be available.
