That's slow for a Tesla (this Ford's real competitor) and slow plus expensive for a "Mustang". Crazy.




There's no "big oil" conspiracy making electric cars "ugly". As for younger generations buying a bunch of these, maybe the more wealthy ones - these start at nearly $44k! And people thought the Blazer was pricy!
Point was, they make em ugly in hopes they don't sell and give people this image that electric=ugly.
But, of course, we know big oil and big pharmaceuticals are here for us.
