Ford introduced a fee for using the front trunk in an electric crossover

The compartment itself is structurally provided in the Mustang Mach-E and is physically present in the car, but access to it for transporting small cargo is only available after payment. The cost of the option is $495 (about 38 thousand rubles). Car and Driver reports.

An option called frunk (Ford’s name for the front trunk) appeared in the External Options section of the configurator. There you can also order mudguards, bumper protectors, a tire inflation kit and a bracket for the front number plate.

Of course, all Ford Mustang Mach-Es have a front trunk – it’s by design. In essence, we are talking about a kind of subscription: the owner is offered to pay for the opportunity to use what is already installed in the car.

BMW was one of the first to introduce “subscription” options – in the summer of 2022, the company launched an unusual practice, and price lists with such services even appeared on the Russian website. For example, they offered to pay 1,600 rubles per month for heated seats.

Previously, experts named the five most affordable compact crossovers in the Russian Federation.
