Первый взгляд ford mustang 2024 года: фотографии и полная информация

Pricing and Which One to Buy

The Mustang is best enjoyed with its sonorous, 450-hp 5.0-liter V-8, which comes only in the GT or the Mach 1. The latter has an additional 20 horsepower (470 total) versus the regular GT model, and features performance equipment pulled from the Shelby GT500 that makes it more exciting to drive. Unfortunately, its starting price is close to $58,000, so we’d recommend the regular GT coupe. Sticking with the standard manual transmission, we’d opt for the GT Performance package that adds upgraded Brembo front brakes, a limited-slip differential, stickier summer tires, unique chassis tuning, and more.

Design & Features

Introduced as a 2021 model in November 2019, the Ford Mustang Mach-E is nearly four years old. In the case of a normal, gas-powered SUV, Ford would’ve planned a facelift. However, the Mustang Mach-E still looks quite appealing and customers continue to find it highly desirable. Moreover, there haven’t been any test mule sightings yet either, which usually precede a minor or full redesign.

At this point, we can only assume the 2024 Ford Mustang Mach-E will be a carryover model from the design perspective, although it may come with new color options and styling packages. The trims could be the same – Select, California Route 1, Premium, and GT, but the standard equipment included and the configurations in which they are orderable could differ from the outgoing model. Customers specifying the GT trim will likely be able to specify the Performance Edition package optionally.

With Ford continuously improving its BlueCruise 1.2 hands-free driving technology, the 2024 Mustang Mach-E could ship with some enhanced and additional functions. Just back on May 2, 2023, the company added the capability to make hands-free lane changes when the driver taps the turn signal in the outgoing model’s BlueCruise 1.2. Even the SYNC 4A touchscreen infotainment system in the new model could debut new and improved functions.

On the wishlist

Owners and fans are expressing their desire for a few changes in the Mustang Mach-E with the upcoming model year. We’ve seen existing and potential customers talking about various revisions online. Front seat ventilation is one of the commonly discussed features for the 2024 model year. Also on the wishlist is Active Park Assist 2.0, a system that automates parking and was previously available in the Mustang Mach-E before the semiconductor chip shortage impacted production.

Ford needs to improve the charging aspect of the Mustang Mach-E, as a peak power of 150 kW falls short of today’s standards. The Mustang Mach-E takes 33 minutes for a 10-80% fast-charging session. Hyundai’s Ioniq 5 and Kia’s EV6 can be fast-charged quicker, as they can accept direct current at much higher rates. Customers wish to get more security and safety as well, with a feature similar to Tesla’s Sentry mode and a higher-resolution backup camera.

Overview

For more than 55 years, the Ford Mustang has continued to evolve into a more sophisticated steed. This iteration comes standard with a 310-hp turbocharged inline-four EcoBoost engine with a six-speed manual transmission. And while the pony car gets as wild as the 760-hp Shelby GT500, reviewed separately, the more conventional choice is the Mustang GT with the 450-hp V-8 engine. Both the four-cylinder and V-8 can be mated to a manual transmission or a 10-speed automatic. Mustangs are offered either as a hard-shell coupe or rag-top convertible, but every Mustang powers the rear wheels. Although a High Performance 330-hp EcoBoost is an available upgrade for the four-cylinder, the Mustang is best served with the growling V-8. While its closest muscular rival, the Chevy Camaro, has a more ergonomic interior, the Mustang’s larger back seat and better outward visibility make it easier to live with.

2024 Ford Mustang: Evolutionary, Not Revolutionary

While many Boomers are still Mustang fans, the inevitable march of time means they won’t be around indefinitely. Ford has already leveraged some of the name’s magic on the Mustang Mach-E electric crossover, but needs to cultivate new customers while simultaneously satiating the faithful to justify the continuing existence of the traditional internal combustion engine-powered Mustangs.

Ford managed to grow the Mustang customer base substantially with the 2014 debut of the current Mustang. Far more technologically sophisticated than its predecessors, it became a global product sold in 180 countries for the first time.

Given that—and the numerous spy photos circulating—it was clear that the basic shape of the new Mustang wasn’t going to change. From a mechanical perspective, this new model is an evolutionary refinement of the outgoing car, first introduced for the model’s 50th anniversary in 2014. It is still offered as a coupe or convertible and is roughly the same size and weight as before.

A true design evolution, the 2024 car gets a more chiseled interpretation of the iconic Mustang styling elements but retains some of the structure of the existing model. Ford

Specifications

The 2024 Ford Mustang Mach-E may carry over the powertrains and battery packs from the outgoing model, which received major changes in these areas on May 2, 2023.

The SR RWD and SR AWD power-electric configurations gained a 72 kWh Li-Ion LFP battery pack as a replacement for the previous 70 kWh Li-Ion NMC battery pack. Moreover, the power and torque outputs of the SR AWD configuration’s dual-motor powertrain changed from 266 hp and 428 lb.-ft. to 311 hp and 427 lb.-ft., respectively.

In a July 2022 announcement, Ford indicated that it will use CATL’s module-less LFP battery pack(s), saying that its EV architecture flexibility allows efficiently incorporating the Chinese battery maker’s prismatic LFP cell-to-pack (CTP) technology. It may use CATL’s battery pack(s) with ‘Qilin,’ the third generation of its CTP technology announced on June 23, 2022.

CTP 3.0 battery, or Qilin, supports two cell chemistries: nickel cobalt manganese (NCM) and lithium iron phosphate (LFP). CATL says that this technology can increase the energy density to 255 Wh/kg for ternary (lithium-ion) battery systems and 160 Wh/kg for LFP battery systems. In the same pack size and chemistry, it can deliver 13% more power than the 4680 battery. CATL is expecting to start mass-producing batteries with this new technology by the end of 2023.

Following the May 2023 revisions, Ford expects the Mustang Mach-E to travel 3 miles longer (250 miles) in the SR RWD configuration and 2 miles longer (226 miles) in the SR AWD configuration. EPA is yet to confirm these targeted range improvements.

The SR RWD variant has become much slower following the battery pack swap, with a 0-60 mph sprint taking 6.3 seconds instead of 5.8 seconds previously. the SR AWD variant can do the same in 5.1 seconds, which is an improvement of 0.1 seconds. Both variants have become 291 lbs. heavier, tipping the scale at 4,609 lbs. and 4,789 lbs., respectively Below is what the power-electric variant line-up along with the trims looks like now:

Mustang Mach-E Configuration	Battery	Range	Power	Torque	0-60 mph
Select SR RWD	72 kWh LFP	250 mi (Targeted)	266 hp	317 lb.-ft.	6.3 s
Select SR AWD	72 kWh LFP	226 mi (Targeted)	311 hp	427 lb.-ft.	5.1 s

Outgoing Ford Mustang Mach-E specifications (Source: Ford)

During the 2022 model year, Ford improved the Mustang Mach-E’s DC fast-charging by raising the charging level for high power (which it stops accepting at 80% SoC). macheforum.com member Cherlin’s 2021 Mustang Mach-E received a ’21P22′ software update, after which it fast-charges beyond 80% SoC, up to 90% SoC. A picture posted on the forum shows the 2021 Mustang Mach-E charging at 45 kW when the charging level is 85%.

With the May 2023 update, Ford reduced the DC fast-charging time of the Standard Range variants (SR RWD and SR AWD) by 5 minutes to 33 minutes. We expect the company to make DC fast-charging even quicker in the Extended Range variants (ER RWD and ER AWD) with the 2024 model year update. The 2024 Mustang Mach-E may have efficiency-related revisions for a marginally better range as well.

Donna Dickson, who took over Ron Heiser’s Mustang Mach-E Chief Engineer position at Ford in 2021, talked about the range and various other aspects of the EV with YouTube channel Munro Live in August 2021. She suggested that the Mustang Mach-E will see range improvements with every model year update, not just ’22.

2024 Mustang Tech: Digital Vibes for the Kids

Even more significant changes come to the cockpit of the new pony in favor of a much more 2020s vibe. The cabin experience is clearly where Ford hopes to draw in a younger generation of sports car buyers. The traditional dual cowl dashboard is ditched in favor of a massive digital environment. Base models get a separated dual panel configuration with a digital instrument cluster display in front of the driver and a landscape 10-inch touchscreen in the center.

Ecoboost Premium and GT models get a continuous arrangement with a panel stretching from the driver’s side pillar across the center of the dash. Like many other recent new models, it looks like one panel when off, but there are, in actuality, two displays hidden under the glass: one for the instruments and a 13.2-inch touchscreen for infotainment.

Like other automakers, including Rivian and General Motors, Ford’s interface designers have leveraged the Unreal 5 gaming engine software to produce the graphics and animations within the system. There is no shortage of moving pixels when changing drive modes, cluster graphic themes or anything else.

The Mustang’s cabin is dramatically upgraded for 2024, with a twin-tablet array of screens that resembles recent BMW models in some respects. They cost much more, but the Mustang and the two-door BMW 4 Series models are similar in size and purpose. Ford

Despite not arriving until mid-2023, the new Mustang is staying with the current Sync 4 infotainment system rather than adopting the new Android Automotive-based system that is on the horizon. Sync 4 has been reskinned for the Mustang to make it look consistent with all the other graphical elements. Features like line-lock for easy on-demand burnouts and track apps also carry over.

Interior, Comfort, and Cargo

The Mustang interior is an evolutionary design that harks back to Mustangs of old while managing to be fully functional and livable. While it’s available with premium features such as heated and cooled front seats, its mediocre plastics and cramped Headless Horseman-only back seats are demerits. Stellar performance combined with impressive cargo space makes the Mustang a high-performance daily driver. In our testing, it held the second-most carry-on suitcases and has the most interior storage space among rivals. The back seat stows by pulling a strap and folds easily by hand. Should you need to transport up to 12 carry-on bags, the Mustang can do so. The Ford wins with the biggest center-console bin among competitors we tested.

Fresh Metal

Despite retaining the same basic shape and dimensions, every piece of sheet metal on the 2024 Mustang is new. The previous generation adopted a more European style with deep undercuts in the side panels and a fresh take on the classic tri-bar taillamps. The new model has a more chiseled look, doing away with those undercuts, at least on the sides. The goal was to give the Mustang a distinctly American muscle car look, which largely succeeded.

The front fascia is more aggressive and utilizes a more blunt-looking grille; it continues the evolution from the 2015 model through 2019. In profile, it retains the traditional shark nose that has been part of most Mustangs, except for the Fox-bodies Stangs of the 1980s and 90s. Triple LED projector headlights are standard, but the tri-bar signature lights have now been moved to a horizontal layout with one above each main projector.

At the rear, the three-dimensional lamps of the last generation are swapped for a more aggressive version of the flush lamps used on the Mach-E. The rear face also has a deep horizontal valley running the width of the tail. As usual, a variety of easter eggs are hidden around the car, including a graphic across the bottom of the rear window featuring stylized profiles of all seven generations of Mustang.

The Mustang’s muscular, sixties-inspired silhouette remains much the same for 2024. Ford

The Mustang convertible’s top continues to fold nearly flush with the bodywork for a clean look when down. Ford

Interior Style

For the physical rather than digital elements of the Mustang, designers have also made a range of upgrades to materials and finishes. There will be a carbonite package with plenty of visible carbon fiber trim. Interior surfaces that previously featured simulated animal grains have shifted to smoother grains, while other surfaces are now being laser etched with patterns like white noise. Speaker bezels are seamlessly integrated into surrounding panels; sometimes, the interior ambient lighting colors can come through the grilles.

Since the same basic structure is retained from the previous generation, Ford has kept the same power top system for the convertible. Like the outgoing model, when retracted, it sits flush with the surrounding bodywork giving the convertible a clean profile.

Warranty and Maintenance Coverage

The Mustang has a solid but average warranty. However, unlike Chevy, Ford doesn’t provide a complimentary scheduled maintenance visit.

• Limited warranty covers three years or 36,000 miles
• Powertrain warranty covers five years or 60,000 miles
• No complimentary scheduled maintenance

Hybrid Mustang is Dead

One feature that Khan confirmed is that the new Mustang will not get a hybrid powertrain. A hybrid was under development for at least a few years using the same system found in the Explorer and F-150. However, with the roaring success of the Mustang Mach-E, Ford decided that a hybrid wasn’t needed. The expense of adding another powertrain in a declining market segment wasn’t worth the effort.

Will the new tech-forward approach to the interior and improved performance have what it takes to attract a new cohort of owners to the family that was started nearly six decades ago? We’ll get a better picture a year from now when the all-new 2024 Mustang begins arriving in showrooms.

This generation will likely be the last iteration of Mustang powered solely by an internal combustion engine; future generations will likely follow the lead of Dodge and its e-muscle cars and get a battery only. If owning a showroom-new V8-powered pony car is a box you still want to check, now’s your time.

Safety and Driver-Assistance Features

Overall Safety Rating (NHTSA)

The Mustang is also available with more driver-assistance technology than any rival pony car, so you can go faster and feel safer. That’s how driver assists work, right? For more information about the Mustang’s crash-test results, visit the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) websites. Key safety features include:

• Available forward-collision warning and automated emergency braking
• Available lane-departure warning and lane-keeping assist
• Available blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert

Sales

Though the Mustang Mach-E is one of the best-selling electric vehicles in the U.S., Ford has some way to go before it can catch Tesla. The Mustang Mach-E ranks second in sales in the pure-electric SUV segment in the U.S., with the Tesla Model Y taking the top spot. In 2022, Ford Mach-E U.S. sales grew by 45.4% year-over-year to 39,458 units (2021: 27,140 units).

Between January and May 2023, Ford delivered 9,930 units of the Mustang Mach-E in the U.S., 36.8% lesser than in the January-May 2022 period (15,718 units). It would hope to turn things around with the MY2024 Mustang, sporting all-round improvements.

2024 Ford Mustang: The V8 Lives!

At launch, the 2024 Mustang will be offered with upgraded versions of the powertrains currently available in non-Shelby Mustangs. That means the 2.3-liter four-cylinder EcoBoost and the fourth generation of the 5.0-liter Coyote V8. Ford is holding back on specifications so that they have plenty of news to trickle out over the next nine months or so until this car goes on sale. There’s no word yet on a successor to the Shelby GT500.

We know that both engines will offer more power and torque than before and are expected to be more efficient. The four-cylinder currently produces 310 horsepower and 350 pound-feet of torque. (The high-performance package adds another 20 horsepower.) The changes to this engine for next year include adopting a combined dual port and direct injection system strategy. This is already in use in most other EcoBoost engines and helps improve cold emissions and drivability. The new 2.3 will probably produce somewhere between 330-hp and the 350-hp of the now-discontinued Focus RS.

The changes to the V8 are more extensive. For 2024, it employs an all-new intake system with dual throttle bodies. Each throttle body has its own intake snorkel feeding from a dedicated air-filter box right behind the grille. Ford is not saying how much power it will produce, except to emphasize that it will be the most powerful Mustang GT to date. The 2022 GT generates 450-hp while the Mach-1 comes in at 470 hp. With the new intake system, it seems likely that the GT will at least match, if not surpass the Mach 1.

Both engines pair with an improved version of the current 10-speed automatic transmission. Unfortunately, not enough EcoBoost buyers have opted for a manual transmission to justify offering it for 2024, so the automatic transmission will be the only offering with that engine. Since about half of Mustang GT buyers go for a three-pedal layout, a six-speed manual remains available with the V8.

Chassis Tweaks

Very little hasn’t been touched in some way, but the same basic front strut and integral link independent rear suspension layout carry over. Among the most extensive changes were to the steering system, which gets a new rack with a faster ratio, a stiffer shaft and reduced compliance throughout for a better feel.

The overall architecture hasn’t changed, but Eddie Kahn, vehicle engineering manager, told Forbes Wheels, “We’ve changed many of the links, we’ve changed some of the attachment points, we changed the chassis setups. We do have a new lower control arm, aluminum control arm in the car, we changed the knuckles.”

Ford hasn’t released the final horsepower numbers for either engine yet, but we expect the GT to produce nearly 470 horsepower. Ford

Drifting for the Masses

Another feature exclusive to V8 Mustangs in 2024 is an electronic drift brake. Developed with the assistance of Vaughn Gittin Jr., it enables, as someone is likely saying somewhere, “epic” drifting action. Like most modern cars, the Mustang is ditching the cable-actuated parking brake in favor of an electronic system that uses the stability control hydraulic actuator to apply the rear brakes.

Opting for the drift brake gets you a handle that looks like a traditional park brake, but it’s really an electronic switch. The track mode app switches the parking brake programming to drift mode, which actuates the brakes much more rapidly when pulling the lever. According to Khan, it will apply “four to five times more pressure than something you can do with the conventional mechanical hand brake.”

The result, based on Gittin’s input, is the ability to kick the tail out almost instantly to initiate the drift. The four-cylinder gets the same switch-activated system—but not the drift brake—used on most cars with something that looks like a window switch on the console.

It’s hard to fix what isn’t really broken, but Ford’s muscular makeover has given the Mustang more chiseled lines that look even better than before without reinventing the wheel, much in the vein of the recently-introduced Nissan Z. Ford

Production

Ford manufactures the Mustang Mach-E at the Cuautitlán Stamping and Assembly Plant (Mexico) since 2020. It built 6,717 units in the first year and then 63,683 units in 2021, which was the model’s first full year of production. In 2022, the company increased Mustang Mach-E production to 77,959 units. On December 31, 2022, the model’s cumulative production figure in North America stood at 148,359 units.

Between January and May 2023, Ford manufactured 33,238 units of the Mustang Mach-E in Mexico. The company had said that it plans to ramp up Mustang Mach-E production in the second half of 2023 in response to the high demand globally, and we’re expecting it to announce an update on that soon. On November 30, 2022, the Mustang Mach-E was available in 37 countries, compared to 22 in 2022. Since 2021, production of the Mustang Mach-E takes place in China as well, at the Changan Ford joint venture company’s factory in Chongqing.
