Ford Mustang Mach-E Ambulances: Combining Performance and Sustainability
Introducing the Ford Mustang Mach-E ambulances, a unique and sustainable choice for emergency vehicles. The London Ambulance Service has opted for 42 Fast Response Units based on the Mustang Mach-E, aiming to create the “lowest emitting fleet of emergency vehicles possible.”
Sustainability and Performance
The Mustang Mach-E was selected not only for its low emissions but also for its impressive performance capabilities. These ambulances can complete a 12-hour shift without needing to be recharged, ensuring uninterrupted service for patients. The decision to choose the Mach-E aligns with the Service’s commitment to both environmental responsibility and patient care.
Advanced Features
Beyond their distinctive livery and light bar, the Mach-E ambulances boast a SYNC Integration Module. This module allows the 15.5-inch infotainment system to seamlessly switch between a traditional vehicle display and an ambulance computer screen. Paramedics can receive real-time emergency calls and access relevant information, enhancing their ability to provide efficient and effective care.
Equipped for Life-Saving Missions
While prioritizing technology, the Mustang Mach-E ambulances are fully equipped to handle critical medical situations. Designed as Fast Response Units, these vehicles are optimized to reach the scene as quickly as possible, recognizing that minutes can make a life-saving difference.
Model Specifications
The specific variant of the Mustang Mach-E used for the ambulances is not specified. However, the Mustang Mach-E Premium is a likely candidate due to its extended range battery, enabling a travel distance of up to 372 miles (599 km) on a single charge. The rear-wheel drive U.K. variant offers 290 hp (216 kW / 294 PS) and accelerates from 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) in just 6.2 seconds.
