2018 Ford Mustang (rumor)
The sixth generation
Ford Mustang is now getting ready to be updated, as a facelifted version is
already in the pipeline.
Besides the usual exterior tweaks that will include
an updated grille, different lighting units on both ends and modified front and
rear bumpers, joined by possible trim mods inside, the popular muscle car will
share an important feature with the Chevrolet Camaro: a 10-speed automatic
gearbox.
Expected to show its fresh face sometime in 2018,
according to Autocar, the Ford Mustang will retain its 2.3-liter EcoBoost and
5.0-liter V8 engines, along with the 3.7-liter V6 that is offered in the US,
and the most probable scenario is that the new transmission will be offered as
an option to the V8. Sources within the Michigan-based giant state that
the gearbox will be offered in the USA, but have yet to confirm whether it will
be launched in Europe too.
Word on the street has it that Ford will probably
make an announcement of the facelifted Mustang at either the 2016 LA Auto Show, or at the 2017 Detroit Motor Show in January.
