All-Electric Mustang Mach-E 1400 is a monster
There is no speculation, Ford is moving to electric vehicles (EVs) with full force and this Mustang Mach-E 1400 is the monster they want to bridge that gap with. It’s a one-of-a-kind prototype that was built in collaboration with RTR Vehicles to demonstrate what EVs are capable of. This just after the EV Mustang Cobra Jet 1400 which serves the same purpose as the Mach-E 1400.
The Mustang Mach-E 1400 is designed to handle high amounts of power. 
The core of the body is a Ford Mustang but with the addition of lightweight materials and improvements to downforce. According to Ford, the whole creation process of this Mustang Mach-E 1400 was 10,000 hours. A lot of which was to improve the downforce and aerodynamics. The shape and location of bodywork have been optimized with a focus on cooling ducts, front splitter, dive planes and the rear wing.
Ford built the hood of the Mustang Mach-E 1400 out of organic composite fibres, opting to not use carbon fibre. This material is an alternative, however, Ford didn’t fully commit to its use as the rest of the body is built with carbon fibre.
7 hearts attached to a powerful battery. 
To put just how crazy the heart, or hearts, of this prototype, is into perspective; Lotus built their Evija with 4 electric motors. Ford made the Mustang Mach-E 1400 with 7! They are powered by a 56.8 kWh battery with 3 of them attached to the front differential and four attached to the rear. This produces a total of 1045 kW.
It was all made to allow a huge range of adjustability for all types of driving. The chassis and powertrain are made to allow Ford to test how different configurations change the performance of EV’s. This means driving modes and the ability to shift the power distribution between the front and rear wheels. Just think, if you are the owner of an electric Ford, it’s likely that it was optimized using the findings of this monster.
Braking has had some optimization as well. An electronic brake booster gives very powerful regenerative braking combined with ABS and stability control. For some extra fun, a hydraulic handbrake system that was designed for drifting was added too.
Starting at NASCAR to change perspective. 
This Mustang Mach-E 1400 is set to make a first public appearance at a NASCAR race and soon. Ford hopes to “challenge perceptions of what electric vehicles can do with performance tuning and advanced technology.”
