With 459 horsepower and 830Nm of torque and 0-100kph in the mid-three-second range, no one can really question the Ford Mustang Mach E’s performance credentials. However, attaching the legendary Mustang name to an electric car hasn’t gone down well with fans of the pony car. Now, Ford has dipped into one of the most popular colours in the Mustang pallet to try and spice things up for the EV. Image Credit: Supplied
