2022 Ford Mustang Mach-E
Federal crash-test performance, recalls, and complaints, scored into one NHTSA Safety Index.
The Ford Mustang Mach-E is a fully electric midsize SUV that borrows one of Detroit's most storied nameplates and plants it squarely in the rapidly growing EV crossover segment. Aimed at tech-forward families and performance-curious drivers who want zero-emission practicality without sacrificing style, the Mach-E competes against rivals like the Tesla Model Y and Volkswagen ID.4 in a segment where safety credentials matter as much as range.
The 2022 Ford Mustang Mach-E earns an NHTSA Safety Index of 94 out of 100, an exceptional result driven by its federal crash-test stars and its recall record. Its 5-star rollover rating stands out for families and child-seat buyers. No vehicle recalls are on file for this model year.
- families prioritizing rollover safety

Reviewers generally regard the Mustang Mach-E as a well-rounded electric SUV that successfully blends everyday practicality with an engaging driving character. Most praise its cabin technology, available performance variants, and polished road manners, while noting that the Mustang name sets expectations the Mach-E largely meets on its own terms as a family-oriented EV crossover.
