Ford opted to pump-up the notion of what a Mustang truly is when they created the 2015 Ford Mustang. It’s an exciting re-imagining of THE iconic pony car. Ford wanted to completely update the 2015 Ford Mustang while avoiding to dilute it in any way. The Mustang is back and it’s a sleek steed.

This new 2015 Ford Mustang has a new, independent rear suspension, an EcoBoost four-cylinder 2.3-liter engine that makes 310 hp and 320 lb-ft of torque. This baby sucks in 18-lbs of boost. Ford says this powerplant can get up to 32 mpg highway. Keep in mind: if you do not use 93-octane gasoline, your horsepower drops by up to 13%. Still, according to Ford, it is fine to run the EcoBoost on 87 octane all the time.

A 3.7-liter V6 comes standard and should produce 300 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque.
