The Car Guide rating 3.5/5 73% Detailed ratings
Price $28,988 – $74,388 Payments
Fuel consumption 7.7 – 17.2 L/100km
For 2018, the iconic Pony Car, in coupe or convertible form, benefits from styling revisions, a recalibrated suspension and new paint colours, while the cockpit gets a new 12-inch, fully digital driver instrument panel on the options list. The V6 engine has been retired, so the Mustang now offers the 310-horsepower, turbocharged 2.3-litre four cylinder and the GT’s 460-horsepower, 5.0-litre V8. The Shelby GT350 and GT350R coupes still boast a 5.2-litre V8 with 526 horsepower.
