The Ford Mustang Mach-E Rally was revealed today at the Goodwood Festival of Speed. The rally-inspired Mach-E features circular fog lights, knobbies tires, and a prominent rear spoiler. While specific details are scarce, Ford says the Mustang Mach-E Rally will be available to order in the U.S. and Europe this fall. Ford will build an off-road-oriented Mustang, not based on the gas-powered pony car but rather the electric Mach-E. The company today revealed the Mustang Mach-E Rally at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, and Ford also said it plans to put the dirt-tuned EV SUV into production. Designed to Get Dirty While specific details about its off-road upgrades, powertrain, and price are still unknown, Ford has released photos of the Mach-E Rally in a camouflaged-esque livery that gives us some unique features. From what we can tell, the rally-inspired Mustang SUV has a restyled front end with circular fog lights mounted in the panel, posing as a grille. There’s also a red recovery hook on the front bumper. The side view shown above shows subtle body cladding that traces the bottom of the EV and around the wheel arches filled by mostly flat-faced rims mounted on tires with knobbier tread than any current Mach-E. In the back, a prominent rear spoiler is mounted on the rear hatch. It resembles the last rally-bred Ford—the all-wheel-drive Focus RS hatchback. While it’s hard to say, it does appear that the Mach-E Rally has more ground clearance than its on-road-only counterparts. Destined for Production The Ford Mustang Mach-E Rally will be raced up the hill at the Goodwood Festival of Speed by former World Rally champion Ott Tänak, the current driver of the M-Sport Ford Puma Hybrid Rally1 entry. Although we still have more to learn about the production version, that information and more should surface before orders open this fall in Europe and the United States. Currently, the most potent Mach-Es are the all-wheel-drive GT and GT Performance, with their dual motors combining to make 480 horsepower and up to 634 pound-feet of torque. The 2023 versions start at $61,795 and $66,795, respectively. While they seem poised to be the starting point for the upcoming Rally trim, we’ll have to wait until Ford says for sure.
