The 2024 Ford Mustang is the seventh generation of the iconic pony car. Physically, it’s been upgraded in every way, but I won’t say it’s been redesigned, more-so, revised. Inspired by fighter jets which I think, worked out great!
A revised chassis is the big talk about this car. It’s the same chassis with the same wheelbase as the previous generation but has been revised and stiffened. Ford has fitted an all-new suspension setup and steering systems to improve its handling at high speeds. The Mustang Dark Horse, which is the most powerful and high-performance model, has far more chassis upgrades than the GT model.

Interior

An all-new interior enhances this completely revised pony. Common features of today like a heated steering wheel and heated and cooled seats are no brainers, but the seventh gen pony has been given special treatment. Ford has made the digital gauge cluster and infotainment system, one large curved screen. Well, that’s what it appears to be. The gauge cluster is a 12.4-inch digital screen and the infotainment system is a 13.2-inch touchscreen. Which at first glance appears to be one massive 27-inch widescreen, well done Ford. Notable features you can find in these screens are selectable drive-modes which has different animations for each mode, selectable exhaust sound modes, track apps with customizable lay-out, and gauge cluster color selection. Speaking of gauge cluster colors, ford has taken out the time to make mustang lovers even happier behind the wheel. Not only are there preset cluster themes for different drive modes, Ford has also digitize the 1987-93 fox body gauge cluster themes, as a featured selection.

Powertrain

There are two engine options for the new 2024 mustang. The GT fastback, GT convertible and Dark Horse, come with a 5.0-liter V-8 engine that produces 480 horsepower and 415-lb.ft. of torque at 4,900rpm. The Dark Horse, tuned to 500 horsepower and 418-lb.ft. or torque. This motor can either be connected to a 6-speed manual transmission or a 10-speed automatic transmission. The estimated fuel consumption for the manual transmission is 14 city/23 hwy/ 17 mpg combined. The automatic, 15 city/24 hwy/ 18 mpg combined. Keep in mind that these numbers are based of premium 93-octane fuel.

 

A 315-hp turbocharged 2.3-liter EcoBoost engine is available for the EcoBoost models with 350-lb.ft. of torque. There is no manual transmission option on this 6-cylinder engine, just the 10-speed automatic. This EcoBoost has fuel consumption estimates of 22 mpg city/33 hwy/ 26 mpg combined. Once again this is based of premium 93-octane fuel.
The redesigned 2024 Ford Mustang starts at $30,920. The 2024 Ford Mustang GT featuring the legendary 5.0 coyote V8 motor starts   at $42,495. You can drive off in a Dark Horse which starts at $59,270. The Mustang is available in both hardtop coupe and soft top convertible body styles as usual.
A few more notable features worth mentioning, line lock, drag brake, launch control and rev match. You can also enjoy all these features in optional Recaro bucket seats.
