What's new about the design of the 2018 Ford Mustang?

With many changes for the 2018 Ford Mustang, it's surprising that the Mustang is still so recognizable. The Mustang's new look can only be described as athletic. It features a remodeled hood that's set lower on the vehicle and a fresh new grille that makes it appear leaner. There are new upper and lower front grilles and the hood vents have been moved for supreme aerodynamics. 2018 also marks the first year that the Ford Mustang will provide every trim level with all-LED front lights; the signature headlights, turn signals, low-beams, projector high-beams, and optional foglights will all be exclusively offered with LED lighting. The rear of the Mustang also features new changes as well, including a brand-new fascia and bumper as well as revised LED taillights. There's also a new available performance spoiler. On EcoBoost model Mustangs, a dual-tip exhaust is standard, while the Mustang GT features a bold quad-tip exhaust. There are 12 alloy wheel designs available and an all-new exterior paint color, Orange Fury. On the interior of the Mustang, more changes have occurred. The interior features a new premium look, with fine touches such as a hand-stitched wrap with contrasting accent stitching across the center console. The seating of the Mustang has been restyled with new patterns and color options. There's also a new key fob design for the 2018 model year.

What's new for the powertrain of the 2018 Ford Mustang?

2018 makes a major change to the engine lineup of the Ford Mustang: swapping the standard engine! Previously, the base engine was a 3.7-liter V6 capable of 300 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque. For 2018, the base engine is now the well-loved 2.3-liter turbocharged EcoBoost four-cylinder which uses innovative overboost technology with a unique calibration to increase torque and throttle acceleration. This engine cranks out 310 horsepower and 320 pound-feet of torque, a huge boost over previous models. Previous models also offer an optional 5.0-liter V8 engine; this engine returns with significant upgrades. It features all-new dual-fuel, high-pressure direct injection alongside low-pressure port fuel injection -- a first for the V8 Mustang. These new adjustments deliver more low-end torque, improved fuel economy, and high-rpm power. 2018 also brings a new 10-speed automatic transmission that improves performance and responsiveness as well as MagneRide damper technology for optimal ride quality and handling in any environment.
