Surprise among the official sketches of the new Ford Mustang. The American brand has presented the seventh generation of the iconic “pony car”, but its designer has included a very special silhouette among the drawings. Perhaps a future bodywork or a preview of one of the brand’s unfulfilled dreams.
The new ford mustang It was revealed a few weeks ago. The blue oval brand has complied by unveiling the seventh generation of one of its most important models worldwide, the iconic “pony car” that will hit the market a year after its debut. The first units will hit European roads from the second half of 2023, as model 2024.
The brand has opted for a safe value, that of evolving with more modern tints a style that has captivated thousands of customers, so it has not taken more risks than necessary and thus has ensured that it maintains its attractiveness. But among the sketches of the new Ford Mustang a surprise has appeared, something that we did not expect at all, and that the German colleagues of «Auto Motor und Sport». The German magazine has detected the silhouette of a more special Mustang, in the form of an elegant and sporty sedan with a more fastback format.
The Ford Mustang Berlina, an idea or a simple survey?
Analyzed in a little more detail, there is no doubt that there is a drawing that is out of the canon of the rest, and that it is a sports sedan. Their front door is smaller than in the rest, even though the shape of the roof line remains intact, while at the same time the tailgate intrudes further into the flap and the muscular rear wheel arch.
Christopher Stevens, the stylist responsible for the design of the new Mustang, also signs this very special sketch, which can only be an idea or a survey. The truth is that the American brand has already considered this option on several occasions, It is not the first time that it has figured in his plans the idea of launching a more practical version of the Mustang, although so far it has not materialized. A very different concept from the electric crossover that sells globally and has been a hit since its launch, but which would undoubtedly be a perfect complement to the Mustang Mach-E.
Ford is silent, it has not referred to the purpose of this sketch at any time, which does not mean that it is being considered for the future, much more so when the brand is embarked on the full electrification of its product range. It is quite true that sedans are not going through their best momentbut with the new batch of technology for electric cars, and given that its main rivals will not give up this more practical body in any way, an electric 4-door mustang makes a lot of sense in the future.
