Cologne, Germany, February 1st, 2024 – For 60 years, the iconic American Ford Mustang has captured the imagination of drivers worldwide, and now the new Mustang arrives with impressive dynamic design and transformed for the digital world.
The world’s best-selling sports car features a digital cockpit supported by cutting-edge Unreal Engine gaming technology, enhanced road handling, and an unparalleled, thrilling driving experience.
"The new Mustang is everything our customers expect from an undisputed automotive icon. State-of-the-art technologies complement and elevate the performance level that will win the hearts of an entire new generation of drivers," said Jon Williams, General Manager of Ford Blue Europe.
Timeless Design
The new Ford Mustang coupe and convertible are now available in Europe with a dynamic fresh design, a revolutionary digital experience, and enhanced dynamics inspired by six decades of heritage. The sculpted hood and powerful rear spoilers are key to the muscular presence that has quickened the pulses of drivers since the first Mustang launched back in 1964. An added new front spoiler and side sills improve aerodynamics and road handling, while three LED light bars have been added to the classic taillights.
The convertible features a breathtaking design and carries that unique sense of freedom that appeals so much to all fans of the model. The retractable roof can be raised and lowered in seconds, and despite its compact design, the trunk manages to fit two golf bags.
Thanks to the digitized dashboard and the 13.2-inch central screen, driving the new Mustang creates the sensation of piloting a jet aircraft. The Unreal Engine software supports interactive animated graphics, which the driver can easily select and change simply by touching or swiping the screen.
Ford has doubled the computing power of its SYNC 4 infotainment system for the new Mustang. The system adapts to display the functions each driver uses most frequently. Smartphone integration for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto is now wireless. Thanks to 5G connectivity, music streaming happens seamlessly even in real-time through the high-quality B&O audio system, while cloud-connected navigation updates traffic in real-time.
Spectacular and Athletic Performance
The powerful 5.0-liter engine carries the true American V8 spirit at its heart. An integrated dual air intake system ensures more efficient engine "breathing," guaranteeing quick responses with every press of the pedal for more acceleration.
The new active exhaust system not only improves performance but also transforms the engine sound depending on the setting. This means you can enjoy a quiet and calm drive in urban conditions without disturbing others, but also feel the full power of the sound and motor on open roads.
Six drive modes adjust the vehicle's behavior, whether it's for more confidence on wet surfaces, more adrenaline in corners, or unleashing full potential on the racetrack. You can choose from Normal, Sport, Slippery, Drag, and Track modes, with the option to customize settings.
The standard Performance Pack gives drivers a true sense of control on the road or track. Brembo brake calipers behind 19-inch alloy wheels provide consistent performance, while the limited-slip differential reduces wheel spin for better traction—especially when cornering. The optional MagneRide suspension monitors road conditions a thousand times per second and adjusts settings to provide the best possible control and comfort.
