Surely, one of the most iconic American cars is the Ford Mustang. When it was first introduced back in 1964, it wowed the nation with its powerful engine and shockingly gorgeous design, and it has remained a flagship of Ford’s line-up ever since. Needless to say, it’s changed a lot over the years, and now, there’s a new 2022 Ford Mustang, and it’s packed full of new and exciting features to keep it relevant in the modern world.

Exciting Engine

When it comes to Mustangs, the first things to come to mind are their powerful engines, and this new range is no different. Starting with a 2.3L GTDI I-4 on the EcoBoost model, engine sizes eventually go up to a massive 5.2L V8 on the Shelby GT500 model which puts out an impressive 760 horsepower, giving it a top speed of 180 mph.

Smooth Handling

With all this power, Ford has had to rethink the suspension and drivetrain to make the drive smoother. Even the bodywork has been redesigned to provide more downforce, giving you much more grip as you go around sharp turns, and the sport suspension will keep your ride taut and easy to control. All of this comes together to make the new Ford Mustang an outstanding track car.

Most Economic Ford Mustang Yet

Of course, Mustangs aren’t exactly famous for being economical, but this time, Ford has tried to change this reputation by creating the EcoBoost range; a range of Mustangs with a much higher MPG than previous models. The most economical of these – the Ford Mustang EcoBoost Premium Fastback – gives a decent 30 MPG when driving on the highway: not bad when compared with other cars in its class.

New Technologies

If you enjoy taking your Mustang out for a drive on a racetrack then you can take advantage of the new Track Apps that come as standard on all new models. These apps will display performance stats as you drive around the circuit, letting you track your acceleration times, cornering g-force, and lap times. Not only that, but this system also comes with launch control and traction control to ensure you get the smoothest starts possible on the track.

With all of these new gadgets and features, there really is a lot to love about the new Mustang. From its smooth handling to its dramatically beautiful design, this really is one special car, so it’s no surprise that it has got everyone talking about it.
