Ford announced that the Mustang Mach-E would be named one of Car and Driver's EV of the Year in 2021. This new EV will come with excellent performance as a sports car. It is unclear when this car will be open to the public. Still, it is expected to be sometime in 2022, Car and Driver test different cars every year to discover better performance and enhance existing technology.
The magazine is published 45 times a year and has been around since 1949. This award is one of many automotive awards given out every year.
The Mach-E looks like a Mustang, with all the traditional cues: a long hood, short deck, and the stylized "Mustang" badge on the rear. But it has an electric powertrain that starts in EV mode. You can shift, accelerate, and brake with the normal car controls. But then, when you're going faster than 40 miles per hour or want maximum power, you press a button, and the e-motor kicks in to give you all-wheel drive.
There are three ways in which Mach-E is different from the conventional Mustang:
- It's fast.
- It's an electric car.
- It can drive itself.
Mach-E will vary its performance and top speed depending on how much torque—and hence how much power—the battery is giving you. We don't know exactly how it will do this; we don't know what the "engine management system" is that will send torque to where it's needed most at any given moment; we don't know anything about software or algorithms that would allow Mach-E to adjust its performance on demand.
Many of them can sense a child running toward the car and turn on their headlights or go faster to avoid hitting the child. But if the car gets even a single lane-change wrong, its days are numbered.
Mach-E is a retrofit that can help driverless cars learn to drive traffic by teaching them how to read human behavior. It can also reboot if the driverless car gets confused. A human driver might have trouble seeing through smoked glass or could be distracted by her child (or by anyone else). A computer would understand all that and would be able to make adjustments based on it.
As the Ford Motor Company moves forward in the ever-changing automobile world to create fast, stylish, and significantly more natural for both its customers and the environment at large. The list compiled here gives us a look into what might be coming in the future and insight into where the current trends of electric vehicles might be headed. It's easy to recognize that car companies are throwing their resources into electric vehicle research since hybrids have been such a strong niche market. The question is, will the general public accept such drastic change when it comes to automotive design? Will consumers want futuristic eco-friendly vehicles or specifically want cars that make them feel safe and secure within their bubble? The answer is unknown, but we can all hold our breath to find out where things go from here.
