Ford fans weren't exactly jumping for joy a few years ago when the sixth-generation model arrived with an available four-cylinder engine. A four-pot under the hood of the American icon simply didn't seem right, but more open-minded enthusiasts soon realized that the EcoBoost deserved more credit than it got. For this, the seventh-gen Mustang Coupe, there is a new 2.3-liter EcoBoost to go along with edgier styling, a digital cockpit inspired by fighter jets, and many tasty performance upgrades. With the current Dodge Challenger aging - and imminently going electric - and the future of the Chevrolet Camaro up in the air, the all-new Mustang looks to be leading the conventionally-powered muscle car realm for another good few years.
When Is The Ford Mustang Coupe Coming Out?
If you want a current-gen Mustang, there is still some time to get one as the new one won't be coming out just yet. The release date for the Ford Mustang Coupe is set for the summer of 2023 when it goes on sale in the USA.
2024 Ford Mustang Coupe Price And Competition
As is often the case for a new release, the 2024 Ford Mustang Coupe's price hasn't been shared yet. It will likely cost a bit more than the current Mustang EcoBoost, which begins at $27,470 MSRP, and we'd be happy if the Blue Oval manages to keep it under the psychological $30,000 mark.
We don't need to tell you what rivals the Mustang will be measured against as that's obvious: the Dodge Challenger and the Chevrolet Camaro. We already know that Dodge is retiring its V8 engines soon, but the base Challenger V6 may just stick around long enough to overlap with the Mustang before Dodge turns to electrification. There are also rumors that Chevy will drop the Camaro after 2023, but until this is confirmed, it will remain a Mustang competitor.
