A closer look at the Mustang Mach-E Rally.
Where the rubber meets the dirt road, Mustang Mach-E Rally sports durable, gloss white 19-inch rally-style alloy wheels inspired by the long history of Ford rally vehicles and wearing 235/55 R19 Michelin CrossClimate2 tires that provide more sidewall and loose surface grip compared to GT.
Every Mustang Mach-E Rally comes standard with two racing stripes that complement the bold color palette. It can be ordered in Grabber Blue, Shadow Black, Eruption Green, and eye-popping Grabber Yellow with available Star White or new Glacier Gray as extra cost options.
Mustang Mach-E Rally has unique contrasting accents, including upper and lower body moldings, a unique front splitter, black painted steel roof, and a distinctive and purposeful front fascia that houses built-in rally-inspired fog lights.
There’s also a recovery point built into the front end and included hook should off-highway adventures ever get a little too spicy.
With all the gravel customers will kick up, the underside gets protective shielding for the front and rear motors.
A protective film on the door cladding and fender arches can help reduce paint chips, and available dealer-installed styled mud flaps to reduce debris spray.
The Mustang Mach-E Rally also looks the part by wearing a dramatic rear spoiler that takes inspiration from the Focus® RS.
Technology Inside
Mustang Mach-E Rally has the first-ever RallySport Drive Mode from Ford, which is designed for off-road driving and allows for added yaw for bigger slides, a linear throttle response for better control, and more aggressive damping for better handling in loose corners.
As a bonus, drivers will appreciate how this drive mode, combined with the new tires, allows the Mustang Mach-E Rally to perform in snow and other slick off-road conditions.
It also comes equipped with Ford technology customers have come to expect, including available Ford BlueCruise hands-free highway driving technology, which will be included with a 90-day trial or can be activated at any point during the vehicle ownership journey.† The latest generation of software, BlueCruise 1.3, builds on BlueCruise 1.0 and 1.2 by further enhancing the hands-free-driving experience.
Customers will experience a more continuously engaged driving experience with Lane Change Assist and In-Lane Repositioning, providing improved performance including around curves and in narrow lanes.††
Inside there’s a combination of comfort, functionality, and style that ties in with the iconic white wheels.
There are gloss white accents on the dash, the lower spokes of the steering wheel and contrasting stitching on the doors.
Drivers will strap into distinctive Ford-designed performance seats that feature gloss white seatbacks, and “Mach-E Rally” debossed into the seating surface.
Off-Road Testing
To test the Mustang Mach-E, Ford developed an all-new rally course at its Michigan Proving Ground. The course was specially designed by rallycross veterans to simulate just what the vehicle might see out in the real world. Engineers and technicians then abused Mustang Mach-E Rally prototypes in 500-mile tests simulating rally-cross durability trials to make sure it lived up to their design intent.
"Mustang Mach-E Rally puts Ford’s decades of passion for rally championships around the world right in the hands of our customers. It takes Mustang where it hasn’t been before – to gravel and dirt roads. Inspired by true driving enthusiasts, a driving experience like never before for the pure joy of driving."
Rebelle Rally
The Mustang Mach-E Rally is set to compete in this year's Rebelle Rally. At the helm of the lightly modified electric SUV will be Kaleigh Miller and Bailey Campbell. Miller won the Rebelle Rally in the 4x4 class in 2016, 2017 and 2020. Campbell has been a Rebelle Rally driver and finished second in the Baja 1000 and fourth in Class 1 of the Mint 400. Together, they will put the first-ever rally-inspired EV from Ford to the test in the Electrified Designation of the X-CrossTM category.
"Ford has entered vehicles in the Rebelle Rally for the last three years and now is the right time for an electric effort. We're excited to see Mustang Mach-E Rally take on 1,500 miles of the amazing dirt roads, trails, and two tracks of California and Nevada.”
The Rebelle Rally is the first women’s off-road navigation rally of its type in the United States, a unique and demanding event based on the elements of headings, hidden checkpoints, time and distance using maps, compass and roadbook. It takes place Oct. 12-21.
Ford will try to build upon its successful history at the Rebelle Rally in 2023 with Mustang Mach-E Rally. Last year, Melissa Clark, a Bronco Off-Roadeo Moab Trail Guide, and partner Chris Benzie, a veteran Rebelle Rally navigator, completed a three-peat in X-Class with a Bronco Sport Badlands.
