Ford has analyzed over 36,000 Mustang Mach-E vehicles sold in the United States and Canada from the 2021 model year, finding that the average battery condition is 92%. This shows that concerns about the rapid wear of batteries in electric vehicles are largely unfounded.

The total mileage of these vehicles exceeds 2 billion miles, which is more than the distance to the planet Uranus. In 95% of the analyzed vehicles, the batteries are in the range of 87–97% of their original capacity. Over 2,000 owners have driven over 100,000 miles, and the average battery condition for them is about 91%.

More than 30 owners have driven over 200,000 miles with their Mustang Mach-E vehicles, and the average battery condition for these vehicles is about 88%. The results show that the Mustang Mach-E batteries perform better than expected and retain a significant portion of their capacity even at very high mileages.
