Keep reading below, then schedule a test drive in Auburn. Bringing your own numbers to the lot settles this faster than any spec sheet.

Who should buy the Mach-E Select and who should buy the Premium?

Buy the Select if the lower MSRP matters most, since Ford’s published 2026 starting price for it is $37,795. Buy the Premium if you want more standard equipment and can pay its published $40,595 starting MSRP, which is the trade a Worcester-area buyer weighs first.

Pick the Select when the sticker price decides it. The Select is the lowest-priced Mach-E trim, and it carries the same Ford warranty as every other Mach-E.

Pick the Premium when standard equipment matters more to you than the starting price. You will pay more up front for it, so check that the extra equipment is worth the higher figure before you sign.

How much more does the Mach-E Premium cost than the Select?

Ford’s published 2026 starting MSRP is $40,595 for the Mach-E Premium and $37,795 for the Select, so the Premium costs more on the sticker. Those are starting prices before Massachusetts tax and title and registration fees, which add to each trim’s total.

Put the two numbers side by side and the Premium asks for more money at the start. Whether that extra cost is worth it depends on how much standard equipment you want. Massachusetts tax follows the price too, so the difference grows once tax is added.

Which battery and EPA range does each Mach-E trim offer?

EPA-certified electric range for the 2026 Mustang Mach-E runs from 240 miles on the AWD to 320 miles on the RWD Extended. The AWD Extended reaches 300 miles, the GT 280, the RWD 260 and the Rally 255, so the configuration you pick sets how far you go on a charge.

The window sticker on any Mach-E shows the certified range for its configuration, so read it there before you compare trims. Short daily drives may make the range difference matter little to you. Longer trips make it matter more, so match the configuration to how far you drive.

What does each Mach-E trim give you for its MSRP?

Both trims carry the same Ford warranty, because the warranty applies to the whole Mach-E model line and each trim within it. The Premium’s higher MSRP buys its standard equipment, and the warranty stays the same at $37,795 and $40,595 alike.

The Select is the lowest-priced Mach-E trim at $37,795. A buyer who wants the lowest starting price in the Mach-E line picks the Select and gets the full warranty with it. A buyer who wants more standard equipment pays $40,595 for the Premium and gets the same warranty.

What do Massachusetts tax and fees add to a Mach-E purchase?

Massachusetts applies its sales tax to the purchase price, so the Premium’s higher MSRP carries more tax than the Select’s. Title and registration fees are added on top, and the state’s electric plate costs the same as a normal passenger plate.

A new Mach-E bought from a registered dealer in Massachusetts carries a 6.25% sales tax rate (Massachusetts Department of Revenue, 2022). Every figure in the example that follows is hypothetical. Say, hypothetically, that each trim sells at its MSRP: the tax comes to $2,362.19 on the Select and $2,537.19 on the Premium.

A certificate of title costs $75, and a normal passenger plate costs $60 on a two-year cycle (Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles Schedule of Fees, 2025). The RMV prices the electric plate at the same $60 on the same cycle, so Massachusetts adds no electric-vehicle registration surcharge (Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles, 2025).

The state’s MOR-EV Standard rebate is $3,500 for a new light-duty battery electric vehicle with a total MSRP of $55,000 or less (MassCEC, 2026). Both starting prices sit under that $55,000 limit.

FAQ

What federal or Massachusetts incentives apply to buying a Mach-E?

The federal credit no longer applies to a Mach-E acquired after Sept. 30, 2025 (Internal Revenue Service, 2025). Massachusetts DOER filed proposed amendments to its MOR-EV rebate rules on July 17, 2026, and the changes include lower vehicle price caps (MOR-EV Rebate Program, Mass.gov, 2026). Public comment on the proposal runs until Sept. 4, 2026.

What warranty comes with a new Mustang Mach-E?

The basic warranty runs 3 years or 36,000 miles, the powertrain warranty 5 years or 60,000 miles, and the corrosion warranty 5 years with unlimited miles (Ford, 2026). These terms cover the whole Mach-E model line, so they apply to the Select and the Premium alike.
