The Ford Mustang Mach-E is Consumer Reports' Top EV Pick of the Year, and it beats the Tesla Model 3 for being the choice for 2022 in the review committee. Before this, the Tesla sedan held the top pick for overall electric vehicle pick of the year. The vehicle's features and performance affected the said ratings it had with the organization.

Ford Mustang Mach-E beats Tesla Model 3 as Top EV Pick of the Year

According to a report by Jeff S. Barlett via Consumer Report, the Ford Mustang Mach-E takes the spot as the Top EV Pick of the Year for 2022, and it beat last year's Tesla Model 3 in the spotlight. The independent organization's metric system combined different criteria for this, including its performance, comfort, and overall value for money.

These kinds of reviews are something that users need to know before choosing and buying their EVs, as cars are as much of an investment as it is a liability. Consumer Report gives a point in why the Mustang Mach-E is the preferred vehicle now, despite the many choices as the top EV of this year.

CR said that Ford's take on its first electric vehicle combines "fun driving" and an eco-friendly version of the favorite muscle car namesake.

Ford Mustang Mach-E is a Good Choice for EVs this 2022

Consumer Reports say that the Mustang Mach-E is a good choice for an electric vehicle purchase this 2022, and its review may help bring another perspective when buying a car from the company. Apart from Tesla, users are given a choice of the Ford EV to consider, which might provide them with perspective in their purchase.

Tesla vs. Ford Mustang Mach-E

The Tesla and Ford rivalry for electric vehicles has been a long-running debate since the release of the first Mustang Mach-E in the market. It cannot be helped as Ford's brand loyalty, and fans claim that the vehicle is superior to Tesla, focusing on its "American" branding to which Ford is more prominent and legitimate.

There came a time when Ford's spokesperson Mike Levine said that Tesla's Full Self-Driving (FSD) feature is a "vaporware" and that it rips people off with extra payments for it. However, several fans from Ford have been proven wrong for their brand loyalty as the Tesla Model 3 initially beat the company with its performance.

Ford initially said that Tesla's batteries are "no good for the company" and remain unimpressed by its technology.

Nevertheless, the rivalry between both companies lies only on the Mustang Mach-E and the Model 3, but soon it will reignite with the availability of electric pickup trucks.

For now, Ford and the Mustang EV are relishing their spot as the top EV pick of the year, courtesy of Consumer Reports, for the first time since it got its release.
