The long awaited 2015 Mustang is finally here and it's all new! A new independent rear suspension, a new four cylinder EcoBoost engine and a totally different styling. As the official unveiling is just hours ahead, we have learned a lot more about the new Pony car!
Engine options:
First of all, the 2015 Mustang will keep the 3.7-liter V6 while the GT variant will also keep the 5.0-liter Coyote engine. According to Ford, both engines will be more powerful than their 2014 equivalents. The big news though, is the new 2.3-liter EcoBoost four cylinder turbocharged engine that might produce as much as 305 Hp and 300 lb ft (406 Nom of torque).
Handling:
When it comes to the suspension, it's a very big debate. There is no wonder that the new independent rear suspension will offer a better handling. But hardcore fans of the Mustang would argue that the car would have changed a lot and might loose its soul. But maybe it's time to move on. Performance figures are yet to be announced so be patient!
Styling:
Some people might argue that the new Mustang looks no longer like a muscle car. Well I have to disagree. The new Mustang dares to be different but the main character lines that define a proper Mustang are still there. And I'd recommend that we all wait to see the car flesh in flesh before making a final judgment. The Corvette C7 Stingray shocked the crowds when it first came out but now everyone loves it...
