Where is the Mustang Mach-E Made

If the Mach-E was the right vehicle for my family, I'd be willing to pay about a 10% premium to buy the same vehicle if it was Made in America. If we're going to call it a Mustang, I think the version for the US market would be more desirable if made in the USA.

I don’t know but hopefully in the USA or Canada. I will not buy it if it is made in Mexico (known for poor quality assembly of cars/trucks) or China (will not support Communist regime).

I hope not in China. Shipping costs/times would be high. It would take for-ev-er to get one on the east coast.

It will be made in Mexico..which is no bueno to me for a car in this price range.

Do you know if they start the production?

The last rumor/word I saw was that the production is scheduled to start on June 20th. The official word is still "summer 2020"

WOW and they will get enough time to deliver the 50K of "First edition " before the end of the year?

Only about 50K in the initial 12 months of production is probably due to battery supply constraints from the new LG Chem factory in Poland.
Also that 50K will be split about 20K to the US/Canada market and 30K to the EU market.

I would expect the finished quality of the car to be excellent whether it is assembled in Mexico, USA, Germany or etc. --- most of the assembly is now done by robots with parts from all over the world. Made in the US is not a guarantee of quality --- talk to some Tesla owners.

here it is:

a car plant is normally just an assembly line for parts coming from 1000 different companies located all over the world. electric from Bosch, brakes from bremo, batteries from LG,... if a company moves back to the us, they only move the final assembly to avoid high taxes.

Canada would have been great for Mach-E production but automakers have been pulling out.

In an interview I watched/read (sorry, I’ve been scouring the net for mach e info so I don’t exactly remember where I saw this. as soon as I find the link, I will post it here) Ford Execs said that US market would initially be built in Mexico. The decision to use the existing modernized plant in Mexico was to ensure the Mach E was profitable out of the gate (gotta keep shareholders happy) and is looking to retool factories in the US to support their future electrification efforts. (Paraphrased)

They also stated it has to do with taxes or tarrifs or something when exporting to Europe. Cheaper to do so from Mexico than the USA.

Yep, they also stated that the Cuautitlán factory is available since they're ending North American production for Fiesta, while the U.S. factories are already at capacity or will be for current planned products... UAW is happy with new negotiations, etc.

We had some great discussion on this at another forum, if you Google/Bing "does Mach-E built in Mexico bother you?"

My first post and I come by this! Dang, I was ready to order a Mach-e GT today, but now rethinking a $70K vehicle built from the Mexico plant. Very disappointed to discover this. I’ve been involved in the auto industry with Japanese Transplants (since 1981) here in the states (worked for Honda, then owned a company that supplied parts for automation to all the Japanese Transplants here in the USA) before selling and retiring early. Then I find this plant was built in 1962, and was used to build Ford Fiestas. I had swore off any vehicles made in Mexico due to issues I’ve seen. I’m digesting this news.

Don't dis Mexican builds! They do just fine assembling cars. I've had Audis built in Mexico with superb quality. I'm also willing to bet that the Mach E would cost more if it was built in US by UAW workers.

China would also be less expensive with superb quality, but current tariffs take that off the table for US sales. The Chinese Tesla factory has been ahead of the US Tesla factory in quality control.

It's not the workers or their ethnicity, it's the demands and quality of the Company's management.
