- Ford opened orders for the 2027 Mustang Mach-E with the 88 kWh extended-range battery standard, replacing the standard-range pack offered for 2026; the Select RWD starts at $39,995, or $42,040 with the $2,045 destination fee.
- Mustang Mach-E spans five trims: Select and Premium use the 88 kWh battery with rear- or all-wheel drive, while GT and Rally use a 91 kWh battery and are offered exclusively with eAWD.
- Trail is offered as a $2,295 package for the Select eAWD, adding revised struts and springs, a Rally-shaped steering rack, 10-inch wheels and a ride height raised 10 mm at the front and 15 mm at the rear.
- Trail includes a 400W 12V Pro Power Onboard system, which is available as an upgrade on Premium, GT and Rally. Trail orders must also include BlueCruise 1.5 hardware because it cannot be added later; BlueCruise is standard on GT and Rally and optional on Select and Premium with their specified tech packs.
- 88 kWh battery is EPA-estimated at up to 320 miles in RWD configurations and 300 miles in eAWD configurations, while the 91 kWh batteries in GT and Rally are estimated at 280 and 255 miles, respectively.
- Ford said a new secondary front motor delivers the same performance as the previous unit at lower cost, enabling the extended-range battery to be paired with the lower-priced base RWD model.
- Trail is expected to go on sale in the first quarter of 2027, with Ford planning to announce its final EPA-estimated range closer to launch.
Why it matters: Select RWD buyers receive the 88-kWh battery as standard; its $39,995 base price is $5,350 below the 2026 extended-range model’s stated $45,345 starting price. The sub-$40,000 headline still excludes Ford’s $2,045 destination fee, bringing the destination-inclusive price to $42,040.
