Auto123 gets in a first drive of the new 2024 Ford Mustang Mach-E Rally variant, which exists because why not.
Seattle, WA – With the Mustang Mach-E getting a facelift for 2024, Ford used the occasion to develop a new variant of the EV. You could say Ford made the Rally edition because, well, it could.
The company created a rallycross circuit right on its Michigan proving grounds, on an unused grassy piece of terrain. Before breaking ground on that circuit, the team responsible for creating the vehicle attended rallycross events and interviewed drivers to ensure that the course represented a real environment.
Visual cues on the vehicle include uniquely designed 19-inch white wheels, shod with Michelin CrossClimate2 tires, designed to offer excellent traction, but above all strength and durability, as well as a quieter ride on the road. Technology of the 2024 Ford Mustang Mach-E Rally - 9,0/10Everything technological about this variant is identical to that found in the GT model. The real technology worthy of mention here is that which transforms the car's driving experience, adapting it to a rally-style experience.
On the track, however, questions of practicality fade into the woodwork, because the Rally offers a pretty impressive experience. Of course, I don't claim to have the expertise of a rally driver. Rally drivers are the best in the world when it comes to vehicle control. Still, my personal experience in the snow has provided an interesting basis. Let's just say that I don't panic when the rear end veers out; in fact, it puts a smile on my face.
