Learn to maximize your Mustang Mach-E® range and minimize charging time with expert tips and tricks. We'll cover charging speeds, driving habits, and help debunk common myths.

Let’s start with the basics: Charging Levels.

Charging Level Breakdown:

  • Home Charging Options:
    • According to a 2023 survey of new electric vehicle owners in the U.S., more than 85% of electric vehicle charging happens at home. *
    • Level 1 (120V): This level can be accessed from any standard 120V wall outlet. Ideal for overnight charging or smaller ‘topping off’ charges. It’s best for anyone that drives less than 20 miles per day.
    • Level 2/Plug-in (240V): Faster charging than Level 1 due to the 240V power source. Readily plugs into a NEMA 14-50 AC power outlet, which is the same as an electric stove. With the Ford Mobile Power Cord you can charge a 2025 Mustang Mach-E in an estimated 11.7 hours from 0% to 100% for an average range of 22 miles/charging hour **. For an F-150 Lightning you can charge in an estimated 22.2 hours with an average of 13-14 miles/charging hour. Ideal for home or overnight charging.
    • Level 2/Wired-in (240V): An even faster 240V charging option with a hard-wired charging station connected to your home’s electrical system. With the Ford Charge Station Pro you can charge a 2025 Mustang Mach-E in an estimated 7.8 hours from 0% to 100% with an average of 33.3 miles/charging hour. ** For an F-150 Lightning, you can charge it in 9 hours with an average of 30 miles/charging hour. Ideal for homeowners or people who travel more than 20 miles on a regular basis.
      • If you don’t want to use Home Backup Power with your F-150 Lightning, or if your EV doesn’t have the capability, consider a professionally installed Ford Connected Charge Station.
  • Public Charging Options:
    • DC Fast Charging: This option is mostly accessible via public charging stations as it requires more power than most homes can supply. It’s the best option for on-the-road charging as it has the potential to fully charge your vehicle in under an hour. And with available Connected Navigation you can precondition your vehicle’s battery on the way to the charger.
  • Optimizing Your Driving Habits for Maximum Range:
    • Efficient Techniques: Using features and behaviors like smooth acceleration, regenerative braking, coasting, and maintaining a consistent speed.
  • Impact of In-Vehicle Climate: Heating and cooling the interior of your vehicle can also impact range, which you can track in real time on your in-vehicle display. We recommend preconditioning using the FordPass®app to optimize energy use before driving.
  • Debunking Common Charging Myths:
    • On a full charge, the 2025 Premium Mustang Mach-E has an EPA estimated range of 320 miles. 171
    • Most Ford electric vehicle owners can count on one hand the number of times they drive far enough in a day to require public charging. *
    • The average road trip is roughly 185 miles, * and now with the BlueOval Charge Network and FordPass, you can plan your next charge from home or on the road. Plus, with at home charging you can start your day ready to go on your trip, or commute, or wherever the road takes you.
