2027 Ford Mustang Mach-E Gets Standard Extended Range and a $2,295 Trail Package

Ford opened U.S. order banks for the 2027 Mustang Mach-E on October 22, 2026, bringing two meaningful changes to its electric crossover: extended-range batteries are now standard across the lineup, and a new $2,295 Trail package adds extra clearance and rough-road hardware to the all-wheel-drive Select trim.

The 2027 Select rear-wheel-drive model starts at $39,995 before destination and delivery, according to Ford’s announcement. The Trail package requires Select electric all-wheel drive, so it is not a $42,290 vehicle; the cost of the second motor and Ford’s destination charge must also be included.

What changes for every 2027 Mach-E

Ford has eliminated the smaller standard-range battery from the U.S. lineup. Select and Premium models now use a battery with 88 kWh of usable capacity, while GT and Rally versions get 91 kWh usable. The Trail package also uses the 88-kWh pack because it is based on the Select.

That simplifies the range structure, but it does not yet tell shoppers how far each version will travel. Ford says final EPA-estimated range figures will be announced closer to availability. Until those numbers are certified, comparisons with the outgoing model—and between rear- and all-wheel-drive versions—should be treated as incomplete.

Ford also lists its Connectivity Package and Security Package as standard equipment with one year of service included. Both have continuing subscription or one-time-purchase options after the introductory period. Buyers should therefore separate the vehicle’s standard hardware from connected features that may carry a later fee.

What the $2,295 Trail package adds

The Trail package is aimed at gravel roads, trailheads and other unpaved access routes rather than serious rock crawling. Ford fits model-specific passive struts and springs, increasing ride height by 10 millimeters at the front and 15 millimeters at the rear compared with Select and Premium models. It also borrows the quicker steering rack, 19-inch Dark Carbonized Gray wheels and Michelin CrossClimate 2 tires from the Mach-E Rally.

A 400-watt Pro Power Onboard system with two 110-volt outlets is standard with the package. That is enough for small electronics and some campsite equipment, but it is far below the multi-kilowatt export-power systems offered on several electric pickups. The Trail package also gets a unique front fascia, black exterior details, wheel-arch moldings and Trail badging.

• Base vehicle: Mustang Mach-E Select with electric all-wheel drive
• Package price: $2,295
• Battery: 88 kWh usable
• Ground-clearance change: +10 mm front, +15 mm rear versus Select/Premium
• Power export: 400 watts through two 110-volt outlets
• Availability: expected in the first quarter of 2027

Ford says the Trail package is factory-installed and will not be limited-production. It is not a dealer accessory that can be added later, so shoppers who want it will need to order the correct configuration.

How the 2027 pricing moves

Car and Driver reports a $2,045 destination charge, putting the least-expensive Select rear-wheel-drive model at $42,040 delivered. That is $2,200 more than the cheapest 2026 version, but the 2027 car includes the larger battery as standard. The publication reports the Trail configuration at $47,335 delivered, the GT at $53,040 and the Rally at $57,335.

That pricing shift matters: Ford raised the entry point while cutting reported prices for the performance-oriented GT and Rally. In other words, the change is not a simple across-the-board increase. Shoppers comparing model years should look at battery size, driven wheels and standard equipment—not just the headline MSRP.

When buyers can configure one

Dealers can take 2027 Mustang Mach-E orders now. Ford expects the first Trail-equipped vehicles in the first quarter of 2027 and says the public Build & Price tool will add the model in early 2027. The Mustang Mach-E product page already previews the Trail package, but final range ratings and some configuration details are still to come.

For buyers, the useful comparison point will arrive when Ford publishes EPA range for each wheel-and-drivetrain combination. The Trail package’s extra height and all-weather tires may affect efficiency, and Ford has not yet supplied a certified figure. Its appeal will depend on whether the added capability is worth the price and any range tradeoff for the roads a buyer actually uses.

The package also shows how Ford is broadening the Mach-E beyond conventional road-focused trims. It follows a similar strategy to appearance-and-capability bundles on vehicles such as the Ford Bronco ORV package, though the Mach-E Trail’s changes are specific to the electric crossover.
