The Ford Mustang is one of the legends of the automotive world. Various plans have been made in the past to expand its offerHowever, the Mustang has always remained a two-door pony tsar, with either an open or closed body. That didn’t change until last year, when production of the Mustang Mach-E, an electrically powered crossover, began. So far, it turns out that his arrival was a hit.
Although the car aroused controversy among orthodox fans, there were opinions about trampling on the legendary name, but the car is still doing well in the store. Ford claims that in the US, the Mustang Mach-E will normally be sold within ten days of arriving at the showroom. Not unexpectedly, it thrives mainly in California, in the sunny state supporting electromobility, every fourth copy of this electric crossover is sold.

As a result, Ford is currently producing more Mach-E electric Mustangs than the classic pony car. If in five months of the year the Mustang has 26,089 pieces produced on its account, the Mach-E Mustang reports 27,816 pieces produced during that time.
But suddenly we have to tame the joy of electromobility lovers, because this situation has also been affected by the lack of semiconductors that plague carmakers around the world, including Ford. At the same time, he decided to supply the insufficient key component currently mainly for his novelties, in addition to the Mach-E Mustang, for example for Bronco Sport, which affects the production of older models. The result is the fact that not a single copy of the classic Mustang was produced at the Flat Rock plant for the whole of May, which strongly affected its production numbers this year.

If we look at the sales themselves, they are still dominated by the classic Mustang on the American market. In the first five months of the year, 29,710 Mustangs were sold in the United States, 1.5% more than a year ago. In contrast, the Mustang Mach-E reports 10,510 units sold in the United States so far this year. This also proves that the classic pony car produced in the current generation since 2014 still has something to say to the world.
Let us be surprised by the further development of this duel of wild horses. In addition, let’s not forget that the life cycle of the current generation of Mustangs is coming to an end, while the Mach-E Mustang is just beginning its career. According to some reports, the new pony car will go on sale in 2022.
