Driven: The 2023 Ford Mustang Mach-E GT Is A Great EV But Too Expensive

The Ford Mustang Mach-E is a smashing success by almost every metric, so much so that it allowed the V8 Mustang to live on for another generation. We love the first Mach-E we drove last year, but there were a few early teething issues that Ford needed to rectify. CarBuzz recently had a chance to spend a week with the more powerful Mach-E GT, and we can confidently say that many of the concerns from the early build models have been addressed. But is it enough?

The Mach-E GT improves on the recipe with more power, improved handling, and a few visual tweaks. This is among the quickest EVs available for under $100,000, but a recent price increase might make it a tougher sell than when it first launched.

Hot Styling

We've said it before, and we'll say it again; the Mustang Mach-E is a gorgeous SUV. The Mustang design elements have been integrated perfectly onto an SUV shape, perhaps more effectively than Lamborghini applied its supercar styling to the Urus. You can spot a GT via its black grille insert, unique 20-inch wheels, and GT trunk badge. The Performance Edition gets different wheels with a completely different spoke pattern than the standard GT, but we happen to prefer the base car.

This is a car that can look great no matter the color, as evidenced by the stunning Iconic Silver on last year's test car, contrasted by the eye-catching Cyber Orange on this GT model. Say what you want about an SUV not being a "real" Mustang, but it certainly attracts attention like the original pony car does. And yes, we do feel like the Mach-E is a "proper" Mustang. If you have a problem with that, take it up with Ford.
