Ford Motor Company’s official YouTube channel recently came up with a very interesting way to boast about the Mach-E’s electric range. Ford’s EV has an EPA range of 300 miles (483 km). When you consider that just a decade ago, most EVs were struggling to squeeze 100 miles of electric range, Ford, like other carmakers, has come a long way.

Electric vehicles are becoming more and more mainstream, but they are still a work in progress and they will be for some time. This becomes more evident if you think about the long history and evolution of the internal combustion engine. With that being said, one of the main concerns, when it comes to EVs, is the range. There’s actually a bit of science involved since in the video, they mention range anxiety – it’s a common type of fear that the vehicle’s battery pack will run out before the destination is reached.

As we know, the range of an electric car depends on the way it’s used – how much you accelerate, how much you use the vehicle’s accessories, and so on. Range anxiety has a lot do to with the fact that we cannot visualize the exact distance. This video is about to change that, by using a rocket. Upon simultaneously launching, the rocket and Mach-E each go in their intended trajectory. The rocket’s propulsion dies at 7,000 feet, while the Mustang Mach-E carries on with speeds of over 70 mph (112 km/h).

Essentially, the video tries to convey that the new Ford Mustang Mach-E makes range anxiety a thing of the past. By pitting the EV against a more conventionally-fueled rocket, the video also makes a low-key statement that electricity is better. Whether the latter is intentional or not, we cannot say.
