It's official, the upcoming Mustang-inspired electric crossover will be called the Mustang Mach-E. Ford confirmed the nameplate Thursday morning and announced that customers will be able to reserve their spot in line after the vehicle's reveal on [Sunday, Nov. 17.](<https://www.thedrive.com/news/30631/mustang-inspired-ford-mach-e-will-debut-november-17>)

The unveiling will take place in Los Angeles, California and will be live-streamed on the automaker's social media channels. According to a press release, Hollywood star Idris Elba will help introduce the newest model of the Mustang family, and the brand's first fully electric, mass-produced vehicle. The starting time of the reveal hasn't been revealed, but Ford estimates it will end approximately at 9:30 p.m. Eastern Time.

Following the conclusion of the reveal, Ford will open up its reservation system online, which will allow U.S. and Europe customers to create their unique Mach-E and select their preferred Ford dealership. The Blue Oval didn't release a starting price for the Mach-E but claimed that a $500 refundable reservation deposit would secure the customer's place in line. It also didn't confirm deliveries would actually begin taking place. Furthermore, it explained that a limited Mach-E First Edition would be available for reservation, but did not release any details on [how the variant differentiates from the others.](<https://www.thedrive.com/news/30666/did-design-renderings-of-the-mustang-inspired-mach-e-just-leak-on-instagram>)

While performance figures haven't been divulged, we expect the model's performance trim to deliver a zero-to-60 time of approximately 3.5 seconds and offer a twin-motor all-wheel-drive setup [as well as a rear-drive variant](<https://www.thedrive.com/news/30485/retracted-leak-says-mustang-inspired-electric-ford-suv-will-be-rear-drive-launch-in-late-2020>). There will most likely be a year-long wait until deposit-holders get their vehicles delivered, and we expect prices to range from $40,000 to $60,000.
