Tjin Edition Mustang Mach-E California Route One Is Lavishly Orange: SEMA 2021
The Tjin Edition Mustang Mach-E California Route’s roof panel features solar panels. The alternative energy collector funnels the Sun’s rays into a RayVolt USA electric bicycle, painted teal to contrast the orange paint.
