Ford has revealed that Mustang Mach-E is the name of the upcoming “Mustang-inspired” electric utility vehicle it will debut in Los Angeles on Sunday, Nov. 17.

When Ford announced plans for the model two years ago, it tapped the Mach 1 name from the Mustang’s archives to promote, but then quietly trademarked Mustang Mach-E, leading to speculation that it would be used on the production model.

Details on the vehicle are still scarce, including the price, but Ford says that it is a performance-minded SUV that will come in a version with a 300-mile range, which puts it in the same league as the upcoming Tesla Model Y.
