Ford Makes the Frunk a Pay-Extra Feature on 2026 Mach-E

Ford will charge a $495 Exterior Option to add the front trunk (frunk) on the 2026 Mustang Mach-E, making frunk a paid feature even as the base price dips slightly. The frunk footprint shrank in 2025 due to a heat pump, and the Mach-E Rally drops its standard rear wing with a $995 Raise Rear Spoiler option. The changes reflect a broader trend of EV makers shifting storage/appearance features into paid options, sparking debate about the frunk’s usefulness.

"San Diego Parking-Enforcement Upgrades to Mustangs for Efficient Meter Monitoring"

San Diego's parking enforcement is transitioning from three-wheeled scooters to Ford Mustang Mach-E electric vehicles, with some residents questioning the decision. The city cites long-term cost benefits and environmental goals as reasons for the switch, with the Mustangs being part of a larger effort to electrify the municipal fleet. While the Mustangs offer advantages in mileage and maintenance costs, concerns have been raised about their size and maneuverability compared to the scooters. The move aligns with the city's Climate Action Plan, aiming for 100% zero-emission light-duty vehicles by 2035.

"Ford's January Sales: Hybrid Surge Offsets EV Decline"

In January 2024, Ford's U.S. EV sales decreased by 11%, with only 3.2% of the brand's total volume being all-electric vehicles. The drop is mainly attributed to a 51% decrease in Ford Mustang Mach-E sales, while the Ford F-150 Lightning saw a marginal decline and the Ford E-Transit van experienced significant growth. Ford's adjustment of 2024 pricing and production plans reflects awareness of the challenging market situation, particularly concerning the Mustang Mach-E. The Ford E-Transit van, however, continues to perform well, with sales up 214% year-over-year.

Impending Loss of Tax Credit for Ford Mustang Mach-E and Other EVs in January

Ford's Mustang Mach-E SUV is likely to lose its eligibility for the up-to-$7,500 tax credit for plug-in car purchases in January 2024. The EV tax credit is changing to include stricter requirements for domestic sourcing of battery components and minerals, as well as a prohibition on Chinese battery components. Ford is still working to understand the implications of the new guidance from the Treasury Department. While discounted prices may offset the lost tax credit, overall Mach-E prices are expected to increase next year. Other automakers are also reviewing the new regulations and their impact on their eligible EV models.

"The Shocking Impact of Electric Cars on the 2024 Presidential Election"

The massive investments in electric vehicles (EVs) from the EV-spending bill in key swing states like Arizona, Georgia, Nevada, and Michigan could potentially influence the outcome of the 2024 Presidential election. Democrats are focusing on job creation as a key strategy, which resonates in these states with significant EV-related investments. Despite some Republican skepticism towards EVs, the promise of jobs and economic growth has led even staunch opponents to support EV-related projects in their communities. Additionally, Stellantis CEO Carlos Tavares expressed concerns that political and public opinion shifts could impact the company's EV production plans. Meanwhile, Ford is offering discounts on its Mustang Mach-E, and lithium-ion battery prices are falling, making EVs more affordable.
