Hey everyone. I think it would be fascinating to get an idea of what percentage of us actually drive EVs now and what percentage of future Mach-E owners are new to driving an electric car. I'd REALLY like to get as many of you to fill this out as possible.

Thanks!

I have a Fiat EV now. MachE will be a huge upgrade for me.

 

[MachDrive]

I’m in a 2018 Fusion Hybrid, were i get 540+ miles per tank. This will be a big change for me, mostly around inconvenience related to charging. But i am excited nonetheless.

I have never owned, or even driven, a pure EV (unless you count fork lifts) so this is a big and exciting change for me.

Harley Davidson Livewire is only EV I have.

Put a deposit down on a Model 3, but when we got the OK to order the math just didn't add up. I was also watching the Polestar 2 and VW ID.4, but then the Mach E was revealed and was blown away. Now I'm just crossing my fingers.

I had a Chevy Spark EV and after a year traded in for a 2017 Bolt. My lease is up in October. I have a deposit on a Tesla Model Y, but I'm having second (and third) thoughts. I've gotten used to the warning indicators in the side-view mirrors and the 360 degree "bird's eye" view. Teslas don't even have the side view mirror warning lights. Tesla says the hardware is there, and those features will come in a "future" software update. For me, this is just the the "straw" for that broke the camel's back for me. I can get along without a third card for a few months. I definitely want to drive one.

So have you pre-ordered the Mach-E yet or waiting to test drive one first? (You can always cancel if you do).

And welcome to the forum by the way!

When the X came out my wife was enamoured with it. Test drove it. HORRIBLE! It wallowed around. WAY too big. Started hearing reports of it wallowing around, along with the troubles with the gull-wing rear doors. Definitely NOT the normal EV experience. My plan is to wait for expert reviews and Ford dealers to have one to test drive (unless Tesla moves off of their position and has the features I'm looking for).

What exactly do you mean wallowed around? Like a boat? Like an '80s Cadillac?

 

[Jhalkias]

We have had a Ford Fusion Energi since 2016, I traded in for a 2019 with the model year end clearance last year. My wife loves that car, and I just wish it had more range than the 25 miles on electric only. However, when she does drive to work, it is only 5 miles. The only other downside is the tiny trunk.

 

[Ron R]

Exactly yes to both of those examples. Not at all tight like the Model 3 I drove, or my Bolt that I've lived with for 3 years.

I just saw a Model X again for the first time a few days ago. Someone on one of the forums said it looked like a pregnant turtle. Yep. It was a big, white, pregnant turtle.

We own a 2012 Chevy Volt and have leased a 2017 Chevy Bolt.

Looking forward to owning a Mach-E Premium RWD w/ extended range battery!

 

[machstang]

I don't for the reason that nothing exciting has come out till now, the Mach-E is one of them.

I commute in either my f150 powerstroke or my Acura RLX Hybrid. My cobra is a toy.

Welcome to the forum BTW!

That's quite a varied garage. I just read the RLX is getting canned... and you HAVE to post pics of the Cobra!

 

[Summerlin Bob]

I have a 2018 Fusion Energi which I truly enjoy driving.

 

[ZdenoQC]

This will be my first electric car if we exclude the solar car I build at the university
