Frequently asked questions
Is the Ford Mustang Mach-E worth the extra £6,360 over the Geely EX5?
The Ford Mustang Mach-E costs £6,360 more than the Geely EX5. For that premium it adds 38 kW more power. The Geely EX5 is not just cheaper - it also offers lower energy use, 158 versus 179 Wh/km. On EVcarsguide's combined category scores, the Geely EX5 comes out ahead overall.
Which is cheaper to own over 5 years, the Ford Mustang Mach-E or the Geely EX5?
The Geely EX5 is £6,360 cheaper to buy. Running costs are almost identical - about £176 a year either way, at 8,000 miles on an off-peak home tariff. Add 5 years of charging and the Geely EX5 comes out roughly £6,440 cheaper overall. These figures cover list price and home charging only - insurance, servicing, tyres and depreciation will move the real total.
What are the Ford Mustang Mach-E and Geely EX5 like on a long motorway trip?
EVcarsguide estimates a real-world motorway range of about 203 miles for the Ford Mustang Mach-E and 198 miles for the Geely EX5 - effectively matched, and both well below their WLTP figures because sustained high speed is the hardest case for an EV. A rapid charge to 80% takes around 32 minutes in the Ford Mustang Mach-E and 20 in the Geely EX5, so the Geely EX5 loses less time at each stop.
Which is easier to park and drive in town, the Ford Mustang Mach-E or the Geely EX5?
The two are within 29 mm on width, so neither is meaningfully easier to thread into a tight space. In a standard 2,400 mm bay that leaves about 499 mm of total clearance for the Geely EX5 and about 470 mm of total clearance for the Ford Mustang Mach-E. The Geely EX5 also turns in a 0.8 m tighter circle, which helps with U-turns and multi-storey ramps.
Which battery will hold up better as a used buy, the Ford Mustang Mach-E or the Geely EX5?
Over a 8-year ownership window EVcarsguide's degradation model projects roughly 90% battery health for the Ford Mustang Mach-E and 90% for the Geely EX5. That is close enough that capacity loss should not decide between them. Both use LFP-type cells, which are happy charged to 100% every day. Both batteries carry a 8-year manufacturer warranty.
