Ford announced its lineup for this year’s Goodwood Festival of Speed, with the highlight being a “new member of the Mustang family, set to be unveiled on July 14. A short teaser video reveals that the mysterious model is based on the Mustang Mach-E, featuring a fancy livery and a more adventurous setup.
The blurry footage suggests that the Mach-E will ride on a new set of wheels shod in off-road-ready tires, and could come with a higher ground clearance. The colorful livery is similar to racing variants of the Mustang, while the GT bodykit appears to have minor changes like the addition of a larger rear spoiler and a different blocked grille.

The automaker was coy on details about the new model but said they won’t be limited to “pulling back the covers”, but they will also showcase its “driving potential”. At the moment it is not clear if we are talking about another one-off special or an upcoming production variant of the Mach-E. The reveal will take place at the First Glance Paddock at 13:00 EST on July 14, before the EV gets driven up the hill by WRC drivers Adrien Fourmaux, and Ott Tänak plus WEC driver Harry Tincknell.
Mark Rushbrook, global director of Ford Performance Motorsports, said: “At the heart of any Mustang is a driving experience that leaves you wanting more. This is the spirit that will continue to live in every Mustang – whether petrol, electric, road, or race.”
The new Mach-E model will be accompanied by the Mustang GT3, the road-legal Dark Horse, and the Ford Explorer EV which will be making their dynamic debuts on the famous hill climb. Last but not least, the M-Sport Ford Puma Hybrid Rally1 will celebrate 50 years of FIA’s World Rally Championship.
