2022 Ford Mustang Mach-E

About this car

Performance The 2022 Mustang offers a range of engine options to suit different drivers, though the GT and Mach 1 saw a slight reduction of 10 hp and 10 lb-ft of torque from the previous year due to emissions regulations. EcoBoost (310 hp): The base model is powered by a turbocharged 2.3-liter four-cylinder that produces 310 horsepower and 350 lb-ft of torque. With the available High-Performance Package, output is increased to 330 horsepower. GT (450 hp): This model features a 5.0-liter V8 engine that generates 450 horsepower and 410 lb-ft of torque. Mach 1 (470 hp): The track-focused Mach 1 uses a higher-output version of the 5.0-liter V8, making 470 horsepower and 410 lb-ft of torque. It adds performance upgrades like a MagneRide damping system and Brembo brakes. Shelby GT500 (760 hp): The top-tier GT500 is a high-performance track car with a supercharged 5.2-liter V8 producing a massive 760 horsepower. Exterior and styling The 2022 Mustang maintains the classic, muscular pony-car aesthetic with a long hood and distinctive tri-bar sequential taillights. Several new appearance packages were introduced for 2022: Ice White Edition: Features white paint, white-painted wheel pockets, white rear spoiler, and white leather interior. Stealth Edition: Gives the Mustang a blacked-out, menacing look with black badges, mirror caps, and 19-inch aluminum wheels. Coastal Limited Package: Available on the EcoBoost Premium, this package adds side scoops, a rear spoiler, a unique grille, and vinyl stripes. California Special: This package for the GT Premium includes special badging and side stripes. Interior and technology The cabin features a modern-retro design with some hard plastics on lower trims. Tech and comfort features vary significantly by trim level. Standard features include a 4.2-inch infotainment screen, a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot, and the Ford Co-Pilot360 suite of driver-assist technologies. On higher trims, an upgraded system with an 8-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto is available. Optional or standard on premium trims is a 12-inch fully configurable digital instrument cluster. Seating is comfortable for front occupants, but the rear seats are cramped and best suited for small children or extra cargo. Ride and handling The Mustang is generally considered an excellent driver's car, delivering sporty handling without sacrificing a comfortable ride. All models are rear-wheel drive and come with a standard six-speed manual or an optional 10-speed automatic transmission (the GT500 has a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic).
