Best Range EVs for NJ Drivers

The Mustang Mach‑E: The EV That Handles NJ Chaos with Muscle and Miles
You wouldn’t expect something with the Mustang name to be the carpool hero of Route 24. But then again, the Mustang Mach‑E isn’t about playing by the rules. It’s electric, it’s bold, and it just so happens to be one of the smartest long-range EVs you can buy right now.
It’s no surprise this model landed in Nielsen Editorial’s guide to the best range EVs for NJ drivers. With 300+ miles of available range on select trims, it’s built for more than just quick sprints. We’re talking full-on Parkway commutes, weekend escapes, and the day-to-day juggle that defines Jersey driving.
And it’s not just about the range. The Mach‑E handles like a dream on I‑287, cruises comfortably through town, and comes with enough cargo space to make you forget you’re driving something that looks this good. Got errands in Morristown, dance class in Madison, and dinner in Summit? The Mach‑E keeps up (and makes it fun).
At Nielsen Ford of Morristown, we’re seeing longtime Ford loyalists and EV newcomers both land on the Mach‑E as their “just right” model. It brings the energy without sacrificing everyday usability. Come by to test drive the Mustang Mach‑E and see how Ford made going electric feel like a thrill.

Trucks That Handle Any Hauling Job

F-Series Strength for Real-World NJ Hauling
Some trucks talk a big game — the Ford F-Series backs it up, day in and day out. Whether you’re hauling equipment to a job in Cedar Knolls, towing a trailer across Route 287, or just trying to fit into the parking lot at ShopRite without a three-point turn, Ford trucks are built for Jersey’s daily grind.
That’s exactly why the F-150, F-250, and F-350 were each spotlighted in Nielsen Editorial’s NJ Drivers’ Guide to Trucks That Handle Any Hauling Job. These trucks hit the sweet spot between power, practicality, and everyday drivability — with the F-150 as a light-duty legend and the Super Duty lineup stepping in when things get serious.
The F-150 is a go-to for local contractors and service pros who need to tow, haul, and still make a smooth commute home. It’s versatile, customizable, and efficient enough to be your Monday–Friday workhorse and your Sunday Home Depot hauler. Meanwhile, the F-250 and F-350 bring best-in-class towing, available trailer assist tech, and the kind of rugged durability that makes long hauls or plow jobs feel like no big deal.
At Nielsen Ford of Morristown, we make it easy to compare models, trims, and tow packages. So, whether you’re running a business or just need a truck that pulls its weight (and then some), you’ll find it here.

EVs With Surprising Cargo Space

The Mustang Mach-E Proves You Can Pack Like a Parent and Drive Like a Rebel
Most people don’t picture a Mustang when they think “family errands” or “weekend getaway gear.” But the Ford Mustang Mach-E is flipping expectations faster than a jughandle on Route 10.
Included in the Nielsen Editorial’s roundup of EVs with seriously surprising cargo space, the Mach-E delivers nearly 60 cubic feet when the seats are down — and that’s not even counting the waterproof front trunk (hello, sandy beach gear and post-soccer cleats). It’s the electric SUV that gives you room to roam without ditching style, speed, or attitude.
Perfect for Morristown families who want the convenience of an SUV without sacrificing fun, the Mach-E is bold, functional, and smarter than ever. Whether you’re commuting on 287 or planning your next escape upstate, this EV’s got the space to carry your life — and the muscle to make it fun.
Visit Nielsen Ford of Morristown to test drive the Mustang Mach-E and see why it’s more than just a pretty plug-in.

The Ford Escape: The SUV That’s Got Your Back From Carpool Chaos to Shore Trips
Whether your task is soccer practice in Parsippany, groceries in Madison, or a weekend escape to the Shore (with half the house packed in the trunk), life around Morristown doesn’t slow down. Neither should your SUV. That’s why the Ford Escape earned a spotlight in Nielsen Editorial’s guide to reliable cars NJ drivers can count on.
With available all-wheel drive for winter slush and a fuel-efficient hybrid option that makes your Turnpike commutes way easier on your wallet, the Escape is built for real-world New Jersey driving. It’s comfy enough for cranky kids, smart enough for modern life, and dependable enough to keep you out of the repair shop — which, let’s be honest, is already full of cars that didn’t make this list.

Electric vs. Hybrid: Which Is Better for NJ Drivers?

Ford Has Both Sides of the Debate Covered
Some drivers want to ditch gas completely. Others just want to stop feeling personally attacked at the pump. Whether you’re leaning toward electric or hybrid, Ford has you covered with smart, fuel-saving options that don’t skimp on comfort, tech, or New Jersey-ready performance. That’s exactly why the Ford Mustang Mach-E and Ford Escape Hybrid both earned spots in Nielsen Editorial’s latest guide on electric vs. hybrid vehicles.
Let’s start with the head-turner: the Ford Mustang Mach-E. This electric SUV delivers up to 312 miles of range, instant torque, and the kind of tech that makes every commute feel like the future. Zipping around Morris County in silence while skipping gas stations? That’s the dream. And thanks to NJ’s growing EV charging infrastructure (finally), the Mach-E is more than ready for real-life Garden State driving.
Now, if you’re not quite ready to plug in every night, the Ford Escape Hybrid is the MVP of practical, fuel-efficient driving. It’s one of the best hybrid vehicles for NJ commuters thanks to its roomy interior, smart tech, and impressive MPG — all without the range concerns that come with going fully electric. It’s ideal for those Denville-to-Rockaway errands, soccer runs in Parsippany, or just stretching your budget farther without stretching your charging cord.
At Nielsen Ford of Morristown, we make it easy to compare both options side-by-side. Want to test drive the Mach-E and feel that electric torque for yourself? Curious how much fuel you’ll save with an Escape Hybrid over the course of a year? We’ve got answers, no-pressure test drives, and a team that knows how to match you with the right ride for your lifestyle.

The Mustang Mach-E: Bold Looks, Bigger Sound

There’s a reason the Ford Mustang Mach-E keeps turning heads in Morristown — and it’s not just the sleek design or whisper-quiet electric drive. Under all that style is one of the best car sound systems on the road today. That’s why Nielsen Editorial named it one of the top picks for NJ music lovers who crave that concert-level sound, even in stop-and-go Route 287 traffic.
The available B&O® (Bang & Olufsen) premium audio system in the Mach-E is tuned for pure listening bliss. With 10 speakers, dynamic bass, and immersive clarity, it transforms your daily commute into a full-bodied audio escape. Whether you’re jamming to Springsteen while looping Speedwell Avenue or queuing up your favorite true crime podcast on the way to the grocery store, the Mach-E delivers.
And thanks to its ultra-quiet cabin (EVs don’t have engine noise, remember?), you hear everything. The vocals are cleaner, the bass hits harder, and even the awkward voice memos your friend sends you will sound surprisingly cinematic.
The Mustang Mach-E is proof that going electric doesn’t mean giving up thrills — or good taste in music. Test it for yourself at our Ford dealership in NJ, and bring your best playlist. We promise it’ll sound better than ever.

What Are the Best Vehicles for Pet Owners in NJ?
The Ford Explorer: Ready for Trails, Tails, and Everything In Between

If your dog takes up more space than your kids and sheds enough to knit a family-sized sweater (with sleeves for everyone), it’s probably time to upgrade to something with real room. Enter the Ford Explorer, recently recognized by Nielsen Editorial as one of the best vehicles for pets in NJ. It’s built for New Jersey pet parents who know their dog is more than just a passenger.
Whether you’re rolling into Central Dog Park in Morris Plains, hitting the trails at South Mountain Reservation, or just trying to survive the morning drop-off chaos without your Lab suddenly launching into the front seat like a caffeinated cannonball, the Explorer’s got you covered. Fold-flat third-row seats create a cargo space so big, it’s basically a mobile dog lounge. Crates? Fit. Dog beds? Fit. 85-pound retriever who refuses to sit anywhere but diagonally across the entire floor? You bet — and there’s room left for snacks.
Tri-zone climate control and rear air vents mean your pup stays comfy in the back, even when you’re melting in traffic during that eternal Route 287 merge that somehow always exists, even at 10:17 a.m. on a Tuesday.
Need to load in fast while juggling a leash, coffee, gym bag, and the will to live? The hands-free liftgate opens like magic with just a wave of your foot — perfect when your hands are full and your dog has decided to reenact a squirrel chase in the parking lot.
The Ford Explorer is chaos-certified, fur-tolerant, and lab-tested (as in Labrador). It’s what happens when practicality and pet-parent survival instincts collide — in a really good way. Come check it out at Nielsen Ford of Morristown.

Not All Compact SUVs Are Built for Where You Actually Drive
Some SUVs are built for city streets and grocery store parking lots. Others? They’re ready for gravel roads that turn to slush overnight, unpaved driveways in Wantage, and detours that feel like off-roading “lite.” Around Sussex County, we don’t just need smart tech and good gas mileage — we need a vehicle that doesn’t flinch when the weather or the roads get weird.
Enter the Ford Bronco Sport.
The Nissan Kicks and Hyundai Kona get all the comparison love (and for good reason, as broken down by Nielsen Editorial), but the Bronco Sport brings something different: rugged capability in a package that still fits in a downtown Sparta parking spot. It’s not just “another small SUV.” It’s a compact beast with real traction, space for gear, and that quiet confidence that comes from being over-prepared for whatever Sussex throws your way.
Whether you’re commuting to Newton, heading to the Appalachian Trail, or hauling kids, snacks, and snow boots — the Bronco Sport just might be your low-key hero. Take one for a spin at Nielsen Ford of Sussex.

The Ford Explorer Brings Big Confidence to First-Time Drivers — and Their Parents

Teen drivers face more than just a road test in New Jersey. They’re diving headfirst into real-world traffic, snow-slicked roads, and driveways that double as obstacle courses with bonus trash cans. That’s why the pre-owned Ford Explorer earned a spot in Nielsen Editorial’s feature on the safest vehicles for teen drivers in NJ. It’s the kind of SUV that helps new drivers feel protected, seen, and in control, without needing a luxury badge or a price tag that causes immediate heartburn.
Recent Explorer models come with top IIHS crash-test scores and Ford’s Co-Pilot360™ safety suite, which includes Blind Spot Information System, Lane-Keeping System, and Automatic High Beams. What does that mean for your young driver? It gives him or her an extra set of eyes when they’re checking mirrors, second-guessing lane changes, or trying to survive late-afternoon logjams where everyone forgets how four-way stops work.
What really makes the Explorer a standout is its size: not so massive that your teen feels like they’re captaining a cruise ship, but substantial enough to offer that “nothing’s going to rattle me” kind of security. Whether it’s hauling half the soccer team’s gear, taking on Route 287 in a snow squall that came out of nowhere, or giving your new driver the extra height to spot that guy who’s auditioning for Fast & Furious: New Jersey Drift, the Explorer is like having training wheels you don’t have to admit to.
It’s roomy, steady, and forgiving — basically, the SUV equivalent of a chill older cousin who shows a teen the ropes without making them feel like a total rookie. Find a pre-owned Explorer for sale in NJ at Nielsen Ford of Morristown.
