Mustang News

A new report and discovery from a recent NHTSA VIN filing made by Ford reveals the company’s plans to once again offer three engine options for the 2020 Mustang when it begins production later this year.

The NHTSA filing lists not one, but two 2.3-liter I-4 engines — the first of which is the 310-horsepower EcoBoost serving duty as the current base Mustang engine. The second 2.3-liter EcoBoost shows the horsepower as to-be-determined, although sources of Hagerty claim this will be a new, high-powered 2.3-liter engine.

The publication goes on to speculate that the new engine could even produce as much as 350-horsepower like that in the Focus RS. Given the amount of shared engine components, this seems plausible.

Various GT500 in different colors are now making the rounds at US auto shows around the country.

We’ve recently shown you the Performance Blue GT500 at the Chicago Auto Show. Now see the Iconic Silver GT500 at the Baltimore Auto Show and the Red Hot Metallic GT500 at the Philadelphia Auto Show.

Ford just issued a safety compliance recall (reference 19C03) for select 2019 Ford Mustangs (among other vehicles) for potentially faulty instrument panel cluster (IPC) assemblies.

The affected vehicles have IPC assemblies that may be blank upon vehicle startup and owners are advised to have their dealerships update the IPC software.

The action affects approximately 4,200 vehicles, which include certain Lincoln vehicles. Affected 2019 Ford Mustang vehicles were built at Flat Rock Assembly Plant between November 5, 2018 and January 15, 2019.

The 2020 Shelby GT500 Mustang is making its auto show rounds since its world debut in Detroit, and its latest pitstop was at the Chicago Auto Show.

This time the next GT500 was also on display at the “First Look for Charity” black tie event before the show officially opened to the public.

The photos were captured by M6G members in attendance at the event, showing the GT500 in Performance Blue and providing us another close look at the wheel/brake caliper clearance, rear wing, splitter, paddle shifters and more.
