Ford once again sounds a wake-up call for muscle car lovers around the world with the introduction of the all-new Ford Mustang. The seventh-generation Ford Mustang adds another chapter to the appeal of the world’s best-selling sports coupe for seven years running. The all-new Ford Mustang comes in convertible or coupe, V8 or turbocharged 4-cylinder, manual or automatic, and performance levels.

The seventh generation adds modern chiseled looks to its heritage-inspired design. Its low, horizontal brow across the front emphasizes overall frontal width, while the upper grille design shape is influenced by the original 1960s design. The Tri-Bar LED headlamps continue the Mustang’s classic lighting signature. Its sleek roofline, broad sprinting stance and shortened rear overhang are also true to the authentic proportions of the first generation, while the widened rear haunches point to the power over the wheels in true Mustang style.  The extended rear deck houses a new crisp signature tri-bar lighting and redesigned diffuser for improved aerodynamic balance in the rear.

Each model in the Mustang lineup carries its own unique front end. GT is differentiated from EcoBoost models by larger, more aggressive grille openings, engineered to allow increased airflow, reflecting the increase in power and performance. The car’s aerodynamics are optimized further with the addition of new hood vents and redesigned front splitter. Similarly, the Mustang convertible continues its drop-top legacy offering maximum open-air freedom.

Behind the chiseled exterior silhouette of the seventh-generation Mustang lies the most technologically advanced, driver-centric cockpit of any Mustang to date. The fighter jet-inspired cockpit offers the driver two flowing and curved displays that can be quickly customized to show information the driver wants or needs to see.

The all-new Mustang delivers an even more exciting drive experience with new and advanced engine technologies.It starts with Mustang GT, now powered by an advanced, 5.0-liter Coyote V8 engine. The fourth-generation 5.0-liter is set to deliver the most naturally aspirated horsepower of any Mustang GT.

Ford has saved the manual transmission for a new generation and the 5.0-liter V8 continues to offer a standard six-speed manual transmission for customers who want an uncompromised connection to eight-cylinder power. Ford’s advanced 10-speed automatic transmission is available.

Customers who desire Mustang’s fun-to-drive feeling with fuel efficiency benefits can opt for the EcoBoost model, powered by an all-new, four-cylinder turbocharged 2.3-liter powertrain.The driver can quickly adjust steering effort, engine response, and transmission and electronic stability control settings through six available Drive Modes to create the perfect Mustang at any time. These are Normal, Sport, Slippery, Drag, Track plus a customizable setting with up to six individual profiles, tailored to the driver’s view ahead of them. Mustang GT and EcoBoost models are both available with an optional Performance Pack, which adds a host of track-focused features.

The new Mustang comes equipped with Ford Co-Pilot 360 features, including Speed Sign Recognition, Intelligent Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop-and-Go, Lane Centering Assist, Evasive Steer Assist and Reverse Brake Assist. Another key feature is Active Pothole Mitigation, included with the Performance Package, which continually monitors suspension, body, steering and braking input and adjusts suspension response accordingly.

Similarly, Ford has also taken the wraps off the new Ford Mustang Dark Horse,a street and track-capable performance Mustang. The Mustang Dark Horse is the first new Mustang performance series in 21 years, featuring a sinister exterior and interior styling hinting at the best performance ever from its new 5.0-liter V8 projecting 760 horsepower. The Mustang Dark Horse comes standard with a six-speed manual transmission that connects to the driver through a standard 3D-printed titanium shift ball.

The all-new Mustang goes on sale in the U.S. starting in the summer of 2023.
