The company said it delivers the same performance as the previous unit at a lower cost [[1]](https://electrek.co/2026/10/22/2027-ford-mustang-mach-e-adds-range-starts-40000/). - The 2027 Mach-E comes in five trims: Select, Premium, GT, Rally, and a new purpose-built Trail model [[1]](https://electrek.co/2026/10/22/2027-ford-mustang-mach-e-adds-range-starts-40000/). ## A cheaper way into the long-range Mach-E Ford opened orders for the 2027 Mustang Mach-E, which now offers a standard extended-range battery for under $40,000 [[1]](https://electrek.co/2026/10/22/2027-ford-mustang-mach-e-adds-range-starts-40000/). If you have been shopping for an electric crossover with real range, the base Select RWD starts at $39,995 [[1]](https://electrek.co/2026/10/22/2027-ford-mustang-mach-e-adds-range-starts-40000/). That price excludes the destination fee [[1]](https://electrek.co/2026/10/22/2027-ford-mustang-mach-e-adds-range-starts-40000/). Last year the same battery cost more to reach. On the 2026 Mach-E, the extended-range battery was available starting at $45,345 [[1]](https://electrek.co/2026/10/22/2027-ford-mustang-mach-e-adds-range-starts-40000/). ## Why the price dropped Ford credits a new secondary front motor. The company said it delivers the same performance as the previous unit at a lower cost [[1]](https://electrek.co/2026/10/22/2027-ford-mustang-mach-e-adds-range-starts-40000/). That saving is what lets Ford sell a lower-priced base RWD model with the extended-range battery [[1]](https://electrek.co/2026/10/22/2027-ford-mustang-mach-e-adds-range-starts-40000/). Add the $2,045 destination fee and the 2027 Mustang Mach-E starts at $42,040 [[1]](https://electrek.co/2026/10/22/2027-ford-mustang-mach-e-adds-range-starts-40000/). ## Five trims, two batteries The 2027 Mach-E comes in five trims: Select, Premium, GT, Rally, and a new purpose-built Trail model [[1]](https://electrek.co/2026/10/22/2027-ford-mustang-mach-e-adds-range-starts-40000/). Select and Premium use the 88 kWh battery and can be had with rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive (eAWD) [[1]](https://electrek.co/2026/10/22/2027-ford-mustang-mach-e-adds-range-starts-40000/). The GT and Rally use the 91 kWh battery and are only sold as eAWD [[1]](https://electrek.co/2026/10/22/2027-ford-mustang-mach-e-adds-range-starts-40000/). The Ford Connectivity Package and Ford Security Package are standard across the entire lineup [[1]](https://electrek.co/2026/10/22/2027-ford-mustang-mach-e-adds-range-starts-40000/). BlueCruise 1.5 comes standard on the GT and Rally [[1]](https://electrek.co/2026/10/22/2027-ford-mustang-mach-e-adds-range-starts-40000/). It is optional on Select with Tech Pack Lite and on Premium with Premium Tech Pack [[1]](https://electrek.co/2026/10/22/2027-ford-mustang-mach-e-adds-range-starts-40000/). ## EPA range by battery and drivetrain The 88 kWh battery provides an EPA-estimated range of up to 320 miles in RWD models [[1]](https://electrek.co/2026/10/22/2027-ford-mustang-mach-e-adds-range-starts-40000/). Depending on configuration, eAWD models with that battery offer 300 miles [[1]](https://electrek.co/2026/10/22/2027-ford-mustang-mach-e-adds-range-starts-40000/). The GT and Rally with the 91 kWh battery provide 280 miles and 255 miles, respectively [[1]](https://electrek.co/2026/10/22/2027-ford-mustang-mach-e-adds-range-starts-40000/). Ford has not yet given a final figure for the Trail. It will announce the EPA-estimated range closer to the on-sale date, expected in the first quarter of 2027 [[1]](https://electrek.co/2026/10/22/2027-ford-mustang-mach-e-adds-range-starts-40000/). ## What the Trail package adds The Trail is offered as a $2,295 package upgrade for the Select eAWD [[1]](https://electrek.co/2026/10/22/2027-ford-mustang-mach-e-adds-range-starts-40000/). Ford says it is designed to make outdoor adventures across pavement, gravel, and dirt roads more accessible [[1]](https://electrek.co/2026/10/22/2027-ford-mustang-mach-e-adds-range-starts-40000/). With the 88 kWh battery, the Trail eAWD has an MSRP of $45,290 before destination [[1]](https://electrek.co/2026/10/22/2027-ford-mustang-mach-e-adds-range-starts-40000/). The hardware starts with fine-tuned front and rear struts and springs, plus a Rally-shaped steering rack [[1]](https://electrek.co/2026/10/22/2027-ford-mustang-mach-e-adds-range-starts-40000/). The Trail sits 10 mm taller in front and 15 mm taller in the rear than the base Mach-E [[1]](https://electrek.co/2026/10/22/2027-ford-mustang-mach-e-adds-range-starts-40000/). It rides on 10-inch High Gloss Dark Carbonized Gray Wheels with as-cast graphics [[1]](https://electrek.co/2026/10/22/2027-ford-mustang-mach-e-adds-range-starts-40000/). The Trail also comes with standard 400W, 12V Pro Power Onboard [[1]](https://electrek.co/2026/10/22/2027-ford-mustang-mach-e-adds-range-starts-40000/). On the Premium, GT, and Rally, that feature is an available upgrade [[1]](https://electrek.co/2026/10/22/2027-ford-mustang-mach-e-adds-range-starts-40000/). ## What this means for you If you want the extended-range battery at the lowest price, the Select RWD at $39,995 is the entry point, or $42,040 with destination [[1]](https://electrek.co/2026/10/22/2027-ford-mustang-mach-e-adds-range-starts-40000/). It undercuts the $45,345 starting price of the extended-range battery on the 2026 model [[1]](https://electrek.co/2026/10/22/2027-ford-mustang-mach-e-adds-range-starts-40000/). If range is your priority, RWD models with the 88 kWh battery offer up to 320 miles, more than the 280 miles of the GT or 255 miles of the Rally [[1]](https://electrek.co/2026/10/22/2027-ford-mustang-mach-e-adds-range-starts-40000/). If the Trail appeals, decide before you order. It requires its hardware selection at the time of ordering and cannot be added later [[1]](https://electrek.co/2026/10/22/2027-ford-mustang-mach-e-adds-range-starts-40000/). Ford has not yet published its range, so watch for that announcement ahead of the first-quarter 2027 on-sale date [[1]](https://electrek.co/2026/10/22/2027-ford-mustang-mach-e-adds-range-starts-40000/). At the top of the lineup, the Rally eAWD with the 91 kWh battery has an MSRP of $55,290 excluding destination [[1]](https://electrek.co/2026/10/22/2027-ford-mustang-mach-e-adds-range-starts-40000/). ## Sources 1.
