Ford Mustang Mach‑E Launches in the Philippines at P3.499 Million
A first drive in Australia reports a calm, long‑range crossover tuned for familiarity rather than V8‑style drama.
Overview
- Ford Philippines rolled out the model without fanfare at P3.499 million, introducing the EV to a market where its use of the Mustang badge has been contentious.
- The unit evaluated produced 284 hp and 525 Nm, with the Philippine specification noted as more powerful than the tester.
- Ford’s calibration reduces instant torque hits and abrupt regenerative braking to make two‑pedal driving feel conventional.
- The 88 kWh battery carries a manufacturer rating of about 600 km of range, though the reviewer saw a noticeable drop over a 65 km route.
- Practical touches include a 402‑liter rear cargo area and a waterproof front trunk, underscoring its role as a comfortable long‑distance companion.
