That is so weird how the panels are frankensteined together, including the cover on the charging port. I wonder if the intention is seeing how different paints hold up, or if the prototypes they are using for duration/road testing are really just glommed together from parts?
My guess (and hope) is that they are simply testing it under real world conditions to get a better idea of range tweaks they are making, as well as overall durability.

I'm glad they're still testing. I hope they never finish testing. I'd love for the manufacturer to triage as many defects as possible, leaving fewer new issues to be discovered by you or me.
There's this other car manufacturer out there, whose vehicles share the roads with the rest of us, that seems to be okay with its customers collecting their software and safety beta test results and training its "neural networks." I'm not on board with that plan.

Yeah, perhaps a test for the European market hitch? A test mule was spotted in Scottsdale last week. My guess is that this is the same one... Probably traveling throughout the country.
As engineer I can say - you test and test and test and test . When you think you are done - you test some more. Finally, when all the testing is really done and dusted ...you KEEP TESTING! This is how you do it and I approve.
You would hope that all principal points have long since been ticked off if its a good sound design and project management team. If they have - they will finding out nothing dramatic. But with endless testing right up until production - and even during production - there is always something you may discover in order to make fine tuned tweaks to the production in order to optimise an ultimate performance machine.
A black and white Mach prototye was spotted driving around Markham, Ontario, Canada! Markham is about an hour from where I live so this is incredible exciting!
A couple of black and white Mach-E Prototypes were spotted being transported on the back of a trailer.
I'm curious to know what the MO66 means on the back of the one prototype. My guess is that it's an ID number of some kind, but we haven't seen that on other ones before.
Using the storefronts and Bing, it appears they're in Northville, MI, a suburb of Detroit.
