Muscles of Mustang Won't Overburden the Car

Next year’s Mustang has received a full package of technical information, including the controversial weight figures.

Ecological modification not surprisingly turned out to be the most light-weight: Fastback with automatic transmission is only slightly over 3,500 lbs. Derivative with a manual gearbox differs from its automatic counterpart by a benefit of mere 5 lbs. The giant of Ford Mustang line-up is a cabriolet GT with automatic transmission. It is made when you take EcoBoost Fastback and feed it to 3,852 lbs.

Briefly speaking, those who were concerned with excessive weight gain might finally sleep sound. Depending on a modification, next year’s Mustangs put on different figures, but not more than 80 lbs. Rear suspension with its independent construction is also a benefit.

As well as in weight, volumes, cylinders, horsepower and torque also differentiate in 2015 Mustang array. Here one can find a six-cylinder with 3.7 litres making 300 bhp and lb-ft of 270, smaller and compact strongman producing 5 bhp and 30 lb-ft more and, finally, proud future leader with the most spacious, 5-litre engine working on 8 cylinders and cranking out 420 bhp and torque figure of 390 lb-ft.
