Ford's Mustang Mach-E NASCAR prototype, an all-electric 1,360-horsepower racecar, combines innovative electric technology with traditional NASCAR elements.

Ford has introduced a fully electric NASCAR prototype inspired by the Mustang Mach-E. The model features a tri-motor powertrain and several parts from the current NASCAR racer. Ford Performance has also published a teaser of an upcoming Mach-E Pikes Peak racer.

The most powerful Mustang Mach-E you can buy today is the GT model. It has a dual-motor powertrain and standard all-wheel drive, a setup that’s rated at a stout 480 horsepower and up to 700 pound-feet of torque with the optional performance upgrade.

This electric crossover isn’t just for show. It’s fitted for the race track. Ford’s new Mustang Mach-E EV prototype

Ford transformed a Mustang Mach-E electric crossover into a NASCAR demonstrator. It has three electric motors, two doors and lots of carbon fiber. As big of a car company as it is, Ford hasn’t forgotten how to have fun.

Here we go then, Ford ’s very first fully electric NASCAR prototype. It’s a Mustang Mach-E that looks like a good bit of fun.

Ford is one of America's oldest automakers and one of the oldest in the world, popularized for being the first to effectively mass produce the automobile under Henry Ford with the Ford Model T. In over 120 years, Ford has become a sales leader in a variety of segments, with popular nameplates like the Ford F-150, Transit, and Mustang.

The Ford Mustang Mach-E stock car has three motors and, like the unbranded NASCAR demonstrator revealed last year, uses the NASCAR Next Gen chassis.

Ford on Thursday showed what its Mustang Mach-E electric SUV might look like as a NASCAR race car. The prototype is designed to look like a Mach-E, but is actually built around a carbon-fiber tub chassis with components from a current NASCAR Cup Series car, including the suspension, brakes, steering, and wheels, Ford said in a brief statement.

While Ford has yet to release details of the Mach-E NASCAR, it will likely share similar characteristics of the NASCAR EV that was demonstrated in Chicago. The EV accelerated twice as fast as gas-powered NASCARs but suffered in corners due to its extra battery weight.
