The all-new Ford Mustang was today simultaneously revealed around the globe
in six cities on four continents. Loaded with innovative technologies and
delivering world-class levels of performance, the next chapter in the life of
the iconic pony car thus begins today.
Mustang's impact goes well beyond the 9 million-plus cars sold in its 50 years
of continuous production. It has made thousands of appearances in film,
television, music and video games, and is the world's most-liked vehicle on
Facebook. For the first time ever, Ford will bring Mustang to customers in key
parts of Europe and Asia.
"We crafted this car with the goal of creating a contemporary interpretation of
Mustang - an American automotive icon that symbolizes optimism and freedom for
millions of people around the world," said Jim Farley, executive vice president
of Ford global marketing, sales and service and Lincoln.
2015 Mustang's All-New Exterior Design
The clean-sheet design of both Mustang fastback and convertible evokes the
essential character of the brand, retaining key design elements - including the
long sculpted hood and short rear deck - with contemporary execution.
Several key design features define the all-new Mustang, including a lower, wider
stance with a reduction in roof height, and wider rear fenders and track. The
2015 Ford Mustang also marks the return of Mustang fastback with a sleeker
profile enabled by more steeply sloped windshield and rear glass.
At the rear, the Mustang has a three-dimensional, tri-bar taillamps with
sequential turn signals.
Mustang convertible drivers will appreciate the standard multilayer insulated
cloth top that gives the car a more upscale appearance and a quieter cabin. The
new top lowers twice as fast as before, and has a sleeker profile when folded
for open-air motoring.
Aviation-Inspired Cockpit
The information and controls an active driver needs are all readily accessible
in the aviation-inspired cockpit, which is executed with the highest degree of
craftsmanship ever found in a Mustang. Large, clear instrumentation puts vehicle
information right in front of the driver in the roomier cabin, while improved
ergonomics and tactile switches and knobs provide better control. The added
width and a new rear suspension contribute to improved shoulder and hip room for
passengers, and a more usefully shaped trunk can accommodate two golf bags.
