Ford presented the new generation of the Mustang at the Detroit Motor Show. The seventh generation of the legendary model, in production for 58 years without interruption, adds a modern touch to a design inspired by tradition. The characteristic three-section bonnet aligns with new LED headlights to create a more striking front end, an identity strongly influenced by the first generation of the 1960s and optimised to comply with the latest safety regulations, such as pedestrian impact.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

The sleek roofline, lowered stance and shortened rear overhang are faithful to the authentic proportions of the first generation, while the widened rear flanks define the model in terms of strength and power, emphasising sportiness, particularly in the GT version powered by the powerful 5.0 V8, a must for a Mustang. The rear houses new, sharp three-bar lighting and a redesigned diffuser for improved aerodynamic performance.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

“The GT has unique styling cues that deliver on the Mustang Performance promise,” explains Christopher Walter, head of Mustang design. “The new Mustang is more chiselled and angular, while retaining the classic muscular strength typical of this timeless model.” The interior has also been digitally revolutionised: the traditional circular dual instrument dashboard has given way to a reconfigurable 12.4-inch digital panel flanked by a 13.2-inch floating infotainment display. “We are exploiting every pixel in order to maximise the user experience,” said Craig Sandvig, Ford Mustang Interaction Design Manager.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":15,"featured_media":55086,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[989,1515,713],"class_list":["post-55090","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-en","tag-ford-mustang-en","tag-ford-mustang-en-2","tag-mustang-en"],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-07-14 01:09:30","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/autodesignmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/55090","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/autodesignmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/autodesignmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/autodesignmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/15"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/autodesignmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=55090"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/autodesignmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/55090\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/autodesignmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/55086"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/autodesignmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=55090"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/autodesignmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=55090"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/autodesignmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=55090"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
