The 2025 Ford Mustang: Iconic Performance Reimagined
Compelling Powertrain Options
A turbocharged 2.3L EcoBoost inline-4 engine serves as the Mustang’s standard powerplant and puts out 315 horsepower and 350 lb-ft of torque. A lightning-quick 10-speed automatic transmission distributes that power to the rear drive wheels.
As if the standard powertrain wasn’t exciting enough, the lineup offers a 5.0L V8 that produces 480 horsepower on GT models and 500 hp on the Dark Horse. Buyers can stick with the 10-speed automatic or switch to a 6-speed TREMEC manual with rev matching if they prefer a more traditional drive. The TREMEC manual transmission on Dark Horse models allows for no-lift shifting, so you can keep your foot on the gas as you change gears.
Superior Handling
In order to optimize handling characteristics across a variety of conditions, the Mustang is available with a number of drive modes, including Sport, Slippery, and Track. The MyMode feature enables you to fine tune and save your settings. The car’s independent rear suspension has been set up to maximize stability in the corners and reduces bouncing by using aluminum-alloy rear knuckles and H-arms.
Available on several Mustang variants is Ford’s MagneRide Damping System, which helps to ensure a smooth ride over just about any road surface with its dampers’ ability to make a thousand adjustments each second. The standard brakes are sizable at 12.5 inches for the front and rear, but regular track goers will want to opt for the available 15-inch Brembo front brakes with 6-piston calipers for added stopping power and heat absorption.
Functional, Driver-Focused Interior
The Mustang’s cockpit continues to make callbacks to previous generations of the pony car while enhancing your drive with top-notch creature comforts. A massive 12.4-inch digital LCD instrument panel shares its housing with an even larger 13.2-inch SYNC 4 infotainment touchscreen, making your experience more streamlined and convenient. The latter grants access to Apple CarPlay/Android Auto integration and a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot.
Standard front bucket seats keep you firmly in place while the car aggressively corners and come with 4-way adjustable head restraints. Seating for up to four people and generous legroom means that the Mustang is perfectly suitable for everyday use. The optional heated seats, electronic dual-zone climate control, and 6-way power adjustability and lumbar support for the driver’s seat bring a luxurious touch to the car.
Whether you’re a longtime fan or an uninitiated driver, the latest Mustang is sure to impress. Head down to Peppers Ford in McKenzie, TN today and explore this beast of a ride!
