The Ford Mustang Mach-E has remained in high demand since its launch over a year ago, though like every other vehicle on the planet at the moment, supply chain issues including the semiconductor chip shortage are making it difficult for FoMoCo to meet that demand. Many that have ordered a 2022 Ford Mustang Mach-E have found themselves waiting a considerable amount of time to take delivery of their new vehicles recently, and now, the EV crossover’s build and price page is showing a current wait time of 32+ weeks.
That’s obviously a significant delay that means anyone placing an order for a 2022 Ford Mustang Mach-E today may not take delivery of that vehicle until just before the holiday season starts in November. It’s the longest delay for the Mach-E that we’ve seen to date, and the addition of the “+” leaves open the possibility that anyone ordering one now may not even get a 2022 model year vehicle. Previously, the site showed wait times ranging from 20-28 weeks.
Currently, buyers only have the option to build and price a 2022 Ford Mustang Mach-E in Select or GT trims, as the automaker stopped taking retail orders for 2022 Ford Mustang Mach-E Premium and California Route 1 trims back in February due to strong demand. Additionally, Ford dropped Active Park Assist 2.0 from Job 2 production of the 2022 model year Mach-E and are instead equipping models with the Active Park Assist Prep Kit, which allows dealers to install the feature at a later date when it becomes available. As a result of these production issues, finding a deal on a new Mach-E is difficult, but not impossible.
On the bright side, the Mach-E GT is enjoying quite a bit of success as the high-performance model continues to resonate with customers, which is also likely helping to drive a robust 72 percent all-wheel drive take rate across the Mach-E range.
We’ll have more on the Mustang Mach-E soon, so subscribe to Ford Authority for the latest Ford Mustang Mach-E news and comprehensive Ford news coverage.

How can it take 32 weeks to get your ordered Mach E, when every major Ford dealer within a 200 km radius of me has 1 or 2 sitting on their lot, dealer ordered?
I ordered mine mid august 21. Cali Rt1 grabber blue. It has been 32 weeks but still no vin number assigned.
I ordered my Premium in October of 2021. Still nothing.
I ordered a ford mustang mach-E premium rwd on 10/11/2021 11:21:04 from village ford in florida. my sales consultant stevenson lucien gave a build day on april 4 2022 <still nothing.
Total bull poop. Don’t take our money And then change the deal on us. We want to buy a new car. Latest year. By the time we get it, 2025 models will be out and our stuff will be obsolete. Bad business ford
I ordered Premium AWD with ext range on 12/19/2021 from Fremont Ford, CA. Haven’t heard anything yet on when it will be available. On the other hand, dealers are selling the cancelled orders with a markup of 10K. Seriously Ford, if you see any cancellations from the customers, you should reassign that vehicle to the people next in line who ordered the same specs instead of sending it to the dealership and allowing them to sell it with a markup.
