11 Ways to Conquer Range Anxiety in Your Mustang Mach-E® SUV

Range anxiety is the worry your electric vehicle will run out of charge during a trip. It’s a natural feeling for new EV drivers to have, even though many ideas about range are myths.

Choosing a Mustang Mach-E^® SUV is a great start if you want to kick this feeling to the curb. The 2025 Premium model with available extended-range battery and RWD boasts an impressive EPA-estimated range of 320 miles on a single charge. ¹⁷¹ Let's explore the other ways you can put range stress to rest.

1) Charge Conveniently at Home

Wake up every morning ready to move and skip gas stations forever. With an available Ford charging station or mobile power cord, your electric vehicle can be charged at home.

2) Access the BlueOval^™ Charge Network

With Ford, you’ll have access to the largest integrated public charging network in North America, ¹⁷⁴ which means you’ll be within 18 miles of a fast charger on most U.S. highways. ^**

3) Embrace These Driving Habits

• Accelerate and brake smoothly to help conserve energy.
• Use regenerative braking to help recharge the battery.
• Precondition the cabin while your Mustang Mach-E^® is plugged in to use energy from the grid for heating or cooling — instead of from the battery. ¹⁸⁰
• Moderate heating and cooling. If available, use heated seats and steering wheel instead of warming the entire cabin.
• Monitor tire pressure. Properly inflated tires reduce rolling resistance, which can help maximize efficiency.

4) Plan Your Route

Use the onboard navigation system to plan routes that incorporate charging stations and avoid high traffic.

5) Use the Ford️ App

Locate charging stations along your route and monitor your vehicle’s charge status remotely.

6) Keep Software Updated

Wireless software updates ⁵ help keep your vehicle’s operating software in its optimal state.

7) Reduce Weight and Drag

Extra weight and aerodynamic drag can decrease efficiency. Remove unnecessary items like roof racks when not in use.

8) Use Fast Charging in a Pinch

Due to the impact on battery health, we don’t recommend regular use of DC fast chargers. However, they are a day-saver for occasional use on long trips. Find them in the BlueOval Charge Network through the Ford app.

9) Charge Extended-Range Batteries to 90% for Daily Use

For daily commuting, charging models with the extended-range battery to 90% instead of all the way to 100% can help maximize battery life and help minimize degradation. ^*

10) Know That We’ve Got Your Back

When you buy a Ford electric vehicle, you get access to 24/7 live support and Ford EV Roadside Assistance. ¹⁶⁶

11) Lean into the Electric Lifestyle

Owning a Mustang Mach-E^® is not just about owning an electric vehicle; it's a new way of driving. Adjusting to change can take time, but we’re confident you’ll settle into and enjoy your new EV routine.
Our last and possibly most important tip: Have fun. There’s no better way to conquer range anxiety, and driving a Mustang Mach-E^® is a really, really good time.
