The Ford Mustang remains an iconic muscle car with the power, performance, and look of a modern performance vehicle. The 2019 Mustang sees just a few changes including the return of the Bullitt and some changes to the available features. Also new for 2019 is a California Special limited edition package for the GT Premium. Here are some reasons why the 2019 Ford Mustang is your dream sports car.
The Power
The base engine for the Mustang is a 2.3-liter four-cylinder that delivers 310 horsepower and 350 pound-feet of torque. Once you get into the GT models, the Mustang gets a 5.0-liter V-8 that gets 460 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque. For the Bullitt model, Ford tweaks the V-8 to generate 480 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque. A six-speed manual transmission is standard with an optional 10-speed automatic.
The Mustang Models
The 2019 Mustang lineup starts with the EcoBoost which has 17-inch wheels, a limited-slip rear differential, and launch control with the manual transmission. The EcoBoost Premium adds 18-inch wheels and some interior upgrades. The GT models come with 18-inch wheels, and the GT Premium adds extra comforts with the EcoBoost Premium. The Bullitt stands out with its Highland Green exterior paint, Bullitt badging, and special wheels.
