Ford Mustang Mach-E Premium Long-Term Review: The Final Verdict

In Part One of our final wrap-up with the Ford Mustang Mach-E, Chasing Cars production manager and custodian of our electric steed covered off his hits and misses on interior space, build quality, practicality, drivability and ride quality of the vehicle after three months and around 5000 kilometres of driving.

Here is Part Two, the final verdict where Tom gets into the nuts and bolts, covering off his remaining likes and dislikes about the Mach-E experience, and focusing more keenly on its real-world EV credentials.

Is Tom happy to say adios to the electric Ford? Or would he happily drive off into the sunset in the Blue Oval’s family-focused EV? And, importantly, does it stack up when it comes to value. Watch on to find out.

A real hybrid? Testing Suzuki’s cut-priced hatchback (Suzuki Swift Hybrid 2024 Review)

Hybrid popularity is on the rise, as Chasing Cars founder Tom Baker takes one of the most affordable hybrid options on the market, the new Suzuki Swift hatch, for a deep dive to see if the cost savings truly stack up.

But is the Swift Hybrid a real hybrid at all?

Recently launched, the Swift Hybrid takes on the likes of the Volkswagen Polo, the Toyota Yaris, the Mazda 2 and the MG3 in the affordable city runabout segment. Its 1.2-litre three-cylinder engine with mild-hybrid assistance outputs a modest 61kW and 112Nm. Our top-spec GLX clocks in at $29,490.

Price, servicing, running costs: does the new Swift look rosy on the balance sheets? Or is this classically cheap and cheerful five-door now priced itself out of pragmatic buyer consideration? Even if the hatch proves itself to remain one of the funnest punts reasonable money can buy.
