Hyundai and Tesla electric cars safer than Ford Mustang Mach-E ... for moose?
Fox News
The Ford Mustang Mach-E put in a poor performance on a benchmark evasive maneuver evaluation known as the "moose test" in Sweden.
The evaluation was conducted by the Teknikens Värld news outlet using a Mustang Mach-E AWD Long Range and found that the vehicle was unable to negotiate the left-right turn at the benchmark speed of 72 kph, or 44.7 mph, without losing some control and leaving the designated path. The testers chalked the issue up to the tuning of the Mach-E's stability control system and thought its steering was too slow and its suspension too soft.
The maximum speed that the Mach-E could get through the course cleanly at was 42.3 mph, while a Hyundai Ioniq 5 had no trouble at the 44.7 mph speed.
A Tesla Model Y that was also tested set the fastest speed of 46.6 mph. Reporter Linus Projtz described the Tesla was "really good" and the Mach-E "really bad."
