    The range-topping Ford Mach-E GT has just been revealed and it will be one of the fastest accelerating electric SUVs, out there. The new EV SUV is expected to arrive in international markets towards the end of 2021.

    • The Mustang Mach-E GT will be able to go from 0-100kph in 3.7 seconds.
    • Its uprated powertrain will put out 465hp and 830Nm.
    • Ford is slated to launch the standard Mustang Mach-E in India by 2021.

    Ford’s Mustang Mach-E GT made its public debut in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, and was shown alongside the seven-motor Mustang Mach-E 1400, which serves as a 1418hp showcase of what Ford’s Performance division can achieve with an electric powertrain.

    The GT’s considerable performance advantage over the previously revealed Ford Mustang Mach-E variants comes courtesy of its uprated powertrain. This comprises an electric motor on each axle, producing a combined 465hp and 830Nm, and powered by an 88kWh battery with a targeted range of 499km.

    As things stand, Ford has not confirmed whether it will bring the Mach-E GT to our market. Though, as we had previously reported, the standard Ford Mustang Mach-E will be launched in India by 2021.

    Once launched, it would compete with the other premium electric SUVs like the Audi e-tron and the Jaguar I-Pace, both of which are also slated to launch in India.
