The Mustang Mach-E is a hit, with sales numbers climbing across the world. Today, Ford announced its 150,000th electric pony car!
Ford has produced more than 150,000 electric Mustangs since production began nearly two years ago, representing a significant milestone as the company scales up its EV production to 600,000 units, annually, in 2023 – with plans to roll out more than 2 million electric Fords annually by 2026.
What’s more, nearly 9 in 10 new Mach-E buyers are replacing an internal combustion car. “When we put the pony on this Mustang, we knew we’d have skeptics,” said Darren Palmer, vice president, Electric Vehicle Programs, Ford Model e. “What we didn’t quite know then was just how popular this car would become. I love seeing Mustang Mach-E vehicles on the road and talking to customers, and I am seeing more and more of them.”

Ford’s electric Mustang Mach-E will be available in 37 countries across the world for 2023 (up from 22 last year), with New Zealand, Brazil, and Argentina among the latest markets added to the list. Global growth comes as Ford upgrades its Stamping and Assembly Plant in Cuautitlán, Mexico, which built the 150,000th example.
“The plant is buzzing,” said Deborah Manzano, Ford’s director of manufacturing. “There’s a new battery line, new chassis line, additional assembly line, we’re literally maxing out the space to make more Mustang Mach-E vehicles. We most recently added a new paint shop, too. Nothing is standing still for long!”
