We’ll see, this is where Ford is taking the p1ss on prices, they literally just convert the UK price to Aussie dollars
but if you go to US domestic prices Ford is super competitive with Tesla Y and actually USD$1,000 less.

Model Y RWD…………………...USD$43,990
Mach E Select RWD………….USD$42,995

When the more esearch oriented folks go chasing down figures like this,
it kind shows how Ford punished RHD customers for all the changes required.

Ford has to make a decision here, does it want to seriously go after those customers
or is this just a token gesture to say hey we tried and no one wanted our BEVs?
To me it shows us exactly the kind of take it or leave it disconnect ford has with customers

Anyone wanting a Mach E needs to tell their dealer to get the message back to Ford
that customers know they’re trying to rip them off and to go the F away.
