Ford is now referring to he Mach-e as "The Mustang" in its ads.

Tried to find the ad on youtube but Today was first time I saw it on TV and then seen it several times. They dont even show the mustang as we know it they only show the Mach-E and refer to it as the mustang. They say something along the lines of we improved the mustang and gave it.... then show the Mach -E. They dont mention Mach-e anywhere in the ad just "The Mustang"

I know in other posts people have said the next mustang as we know it will likely be a 8 year model. If the Mach-e takes off and since the Mustang is Fords last car they are making (fusion is on way out next year). How long till the Mustang we know and love is gone? I know this topic has been covered several times to a degree but seeing that ad today sorta made it real that the time is closer then any of us wants to admit. I have a feeling the s650 will be the last Car type mustang we see. I mean if Ford themselves are now publicly calling the Mach-e "the mustang" in their ads, it wont be long I feel. I was on fence about weather I would buy a s650 but I think I just might and enjoy the last ride.

I can see Ford doing away with the Ecoboost and GT coup and only offering a 2 door as "limited" releases like the mach 1, gt500, etc. I don't like it, but I can see it.

Yeah that was what I was thinking too. The Mustang as we know it as a performance car will become limited special editions in the 70 to 100k range and us working joes will have to settle for used ones as they drop in price or the mach-e as the regular production model.

Mach-e is the way of the future.

Ugh. I really really hate that damn thing. I will never refer to that ugly POS as a Mustang.

I think they are trying to push the mustang brand if that makes sense. I think in the years to come Mustang will be a part of ford as ram trucks is to dodge or how fiat is to jeep and chevy is to gmc ect. Also stretching it more i can see them just doing as you said coupes as special editions as making the gt500, mach 1 or boss throughout the years along side the mach e or after the s650 run is done with. Or maybe its just a commercial and we are overthinking it.

Lol! I love this way of thinking.
I’m getting a bright orange Mach-E GT for the wife. I’ll be the guy dusting you at the light hitting 60 in 3sec.
Mustang is a feeling/performance value not just a 2-door couple only.

Possible LOL, it was just the way they said the mustang.! not the mach-e or the all electric or anything they straight up called it the Mustang. The improved Mustang no less.

I am excited for the Mach e though haven’t driven an electric vehicle yet and I’m usually the one driving anyways lol

I see what ford is trying to do with mustang brand and can appreciate it, if it wasn’t called a mustang people wouldn’t be talking about it as much.
