When it comes to Ford classics, the Ford Mustang (Mustang Mustang), which represents the American muscle car culture, must be one of the first images that consumers can remember. Entering the new energy era, Ford launched a new member of the Mustang family, the Mustang Mach-E, to make a breakthrough. Recently, Changan Ford's ** Ford electric horse was officially launched, which ignited people's desire to "scatter wild" at any time with re-evolution.

As a pure electric performance coupe SUV, the Ford Electric Horse inherits the Ford Mustang pedigree. In the 100-year history of Ford, the Mustang has accumulated a good name, and it has won the love and respect of countless fans with its unique shape and powerful performance, and is one of Ford's most legendary models.
After the end of World War II, the United States entered the era of rapid development, and on the way to find spiritual sustenance, people were full of ideals and pursued freedom and uninhibited, which were the fertile soil for the birth of Musang. In 1964, two years after the launch of the concept car, Ford officially unveiled the Mustang in 1964 to commemorate the famous P51 Mustang fighter in World War II.
After seven generations, Mustang has become the epitome of American muscular performance cars and has set a global sales record of 10 million units. Soon after its start, Mustang proved itself with impressive racing results, and the number of classic models in the family gradually increased.
Such as the official high-performance version of the 1969 Mustang Mach 1, equipped with a classic V8 engine;The high-performance Mustang Boss series dominated the 1969 NASCAR with 11 consecutive wins in three months, and regained the Trans-Am championship in 1970, which emphasized the overall performance of the car. Also widely known is the Mustang Shelby GT series, from the Mustang Shelby GT350 to the Mustang Shelby GT500, all of which are perennial winners of the Pan American Championship.
The iconic identity has made the Mustang a celebrity favorite and one of the most photographed cars ever seen on the big screen, allowing it to resonate with the masses and evolve into a cultural symbol with global influence. Among the owners of the Mustang are political bigwigs such as former American ** Bill Clinton, as well as Hollywood movie stars such as Tom Cruise and Bruce Willis. At the same time, it has also frequently appeared in classic film and television works such as "Transformers", "Fast and Furious", and "007" that have influenced the world.
The wheels of the times are always rolling forward. As a result, we saw the new member of the Mustang family, which has inherited the legendary performance genes of the Mustang for nearly 60 years and integrated the latest electrification technology, the Ford Electric Horse.
Grinding details, advanced in all directions
American cars have always shown off their muscles and performance, and the Ford Mustang, a symbol of American culture, is even more so. The empowerment of electrification can easily challenge the vehicle's starting acceleration performance to challenge large-displacement fuel vehicles, but Ford Electric Horse is not satisfied. The 2024 Ford Electric Horse GT model has a 000 acceleration time of 365s to 357s。0What's the point of 08s?
It represents Ford's grinding of every detail of the electric horse. It can be seen that the new car follows the design totem that is loyal to the Mustang family. The classic shark nose front face, fastback body and three-pillar taillights have been retained, and the more bold and unrestrained "Howling Sun" body color and two interior themes of "Aurora Lemon" and "Howling Sun" have been added. The Electric Horse GT Storm Edition has a blackened exterior and is equipped with an exclusive Twister tornado pattern and 20-inch multi-spoke GT wheels.
In the places where it cannot be seen directly, the new car has also been polished with spared effort. It has evolved iteratively on the core of the three-electric system, bringing more efficient drive, longer battery life and more comprehensive "wild happiness". The GT version of the model equipped with Ford's self-developed electric drive can output 860N·m peak torque and 359kW maximum power, and the most simple and intuitive performance is naturally starting acceleration, which is enough for users to experience its "wildness".
It has the wildness of a racing car, and it also allows users to "go wild without anxiety". To this end, Ford and CATL have developed a new generation of CTP lithium iron phosphate battery pack, which achieves a comprehensive energy consumption of 12 per 100 kilometers4kWh, so that the ** electric horse entry version of the model range of more than 600km, the ultra-long range version of the range of 700km;And through the BMS battery precision management system, it ensures that the vehicle still has a 94% power retention rate even in the -7 scenario.
Taking it a step further, the new car continues to adhere to Ford's highest global EV safety standards, with its battery being tested for more than 240,000 cycles. Whether it is the most stringent acupuncture, drop test, or extrusion, salt spray, and thermal diffusion test, its standards are higher than the national standard. For example, the national standard requires 6 days for salt spray testing, and the Ford standard reaches 12 weeksThe acupuncture test that the national standard does not require, and it has also achieved no **no**. It can be said that whether it is visible or invisible to consumers, the improvement made by the Ford electric horse is quite "obsessive" and persistent.
Inherit the classics and break through the power with wisdom
The advantages of electrification are not only in performance and power, but also in the excellent intelligent experience, which is another breakthrough for Ford Electric Horse. However, unlike the new forces of car manufacturing, the intelligence of Ford's electric horse has a foundation. Derived from Musang's 60 years of performance genes and racetrack driving blood, it has become a safe, reliable, and fun performance electric vehicle.
In fact, the Ford Electric Horse is also the first production electric vehicle to be tuned with a track simulator. The Ford Performance team used Le Mans Circuit Simulator technology to tune it, verified by a massive database of suspension models, and strengthened its cornering accuracy and driving quality. In addition, all models are equipped with Brembo all-aluminum four-piston calipers as standard, and the GT models also use Formula 1-exclusive Pirelli P Zero tires to improve grip and braking power, giving users more confidence when "going wild".
On top of this, the new car arms itself with more powerful intelligence. It is equipped with the Qualcomm 8155 third-generation Snapdragon cockpit platform, which has an 8-core CPU performance that is 3 times faster than before, and a 2 times faster car start-up speed, with Ford SYNC+20 Zhixing connected system and the new wireless carplay function, the system operation is smoother and smoother, and the user, mobile phone and vehicle can also be seamlessly connected.
Unlike many performance cars that do not emphasize intelligent driving capabilities, the Ford Electric Horse is originally equipped with L2 intelligent driving assistance functions as standard. **Ford BlueCruise 1 equipped with Ford Electric Horse2 system, also added turn signal lane change assist and lane intelligent avoidance assist function. The former can automatically change lanes after operating the turn signal, and the latter can accurately identify and stay away from large vehicles to ensure driving safety, so that the experience of co-driving can cover more refined driving scenarios.
Bluecruise is a higher-level L2+ intelligent driving assistance system, and Ford has been ranked first in the ADAS system ranking of Consumer Reports, a well-known non-profit consumer organization in the United States, for two consecutive years, and its stability and reliability can be seen. The system covers more than 400,000 kilometers of urban expressways and highways across the country, with a mileage of more than 80 million kilometers.
By heart, the Ford Electric Horse is in a league of its own. In the same level and price market, it can provide products that not only have a personalized appearance, but also have track-level performance, and are smart and comfortable enough. With the blessing of Ford's Mustang genes, this pure electric performance coupe SUV has been advanced, which will be liked by those who like it all the time.
