On July 21, global motor giant, Ford introduced their new all-electric Mustang Mach E 1400’s prototype that it is developed in association with North Carolina-based RTR vehicles. The vehicle has 1,400 horsepower and will launch at a NASCAR race soon.
After Ford’s all-electric Mustang Cobra Jet 1400, this model is a road rocket, and a stellar example of the power electric propulsion can generate.
Mustang Mach E 1400’s body follows a white and red colour scheme and has seven electric motors. Three are at the front while the other four are in the rear. A single driveshaft connects them to the differentials.

Tools the same as the ones in race cars have been used here. Aerodynamics are optimized for shape and location. The focus is on cooling ducts, front splitter, dive planes and rear wing. It has a high downforce that is targeted at more than 2,300 lb. at 160 mph.
The 56.8-kilowatt-hour battery made up of nickel-manganese cobalt pouch cells, Brembo brakes, an electronic brake booster, an ABS system, a chassis and powertrain are some of its advanced features.

“Getting behind the wheel of this car has completely changed my perspective on what power and torque can be,” said Vaughn Gittin Jr., the Founder of RTR Vehicles. He further used the term ‘magnetic roller coaster’ to define this model.
“Mustang Mach-E 1400 is a showcase of the art of the possible with an electric vehicle.”, added Mark Rushbrook, Motorsports Director, Ford Performance.
