Ford is within the remaining levels of testing the seventh-generation Mustang. The mannequin is not scheduled to make its debut till September 14, and it will not land in showrooms till the 2024 mannequin yr, however the Blue Oval is giving followers a preview of the obtainable V8 engine’s exhaust word.
Posted on Twitter, the 16-second video is music to our ears: it options the sound of a V8 engine revving a couple of instances adopted by the noise of tires squealing. It seemingly confirms that the subsequent Mustang (which known as S650 internally) will probably be provided with a V8, doubtless a model of the present automotive’s 5.0-liter unit. Whereas an eight-cylinder was an expectation, it is shortly turning into a singular promoting level. Dodge introduced that its Hemi V8 will die with the Challenger and Charger after the 2023 mannequin yr, and the Chevrolet Camaro’s future is murky at greatest.

Official technical specs stay underneath wraps, however an earlier report claims the next-generation Mustang will land with near 500 horsepower, although whether or not that determine corresponds to the GT, the Mach 1 or one other variant is not clear. We’re guessing that the roster of engines will carry over from the current-generation automotive, which means base fashions will ship with a turbocharged, 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder. Rear-wheel drive will once more come customary, and patrons will probably be requested to decide on between a six-speed handbook and a 10-speed computerized.
Ford will unveil the seventh-generation Mustang on September 14, 2022, on the Detroit auto present.
