There’s something undeniably
nostalgic about muscle cars. These speedy and powerful vehicles are the
quintessential American vehicle, a car that hearkens back to the days when
Steve McQueen was the reigning “King of Cool.”
That being said, legacy cars
often find themselves in a quandary: how do you retain that sense of nostalgia
without being stuck in the past? Luckily, vehicles like the 2016 Ford Mustang
attempt to bridge the gap between old and new with excellent results.
Muscle Under the Hood
This year’s crop of Mustangs come
with four engine configurations, but even the base model, which has a 3.7-liter
V6 engine, can generate up to 300 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque. If
that’s not nimble enough for you, you can get the topline trim which sports a
5.2-liter V8 engine that makes a walloping 526 horsepower and 429 pound-feet of
torque.
Fast--But Not Reckless
While the Mustang brand built its
legacy on impressive power, the 2016 iteration is also packed with technologies
that keep drivers safe during everyday drives. These include features such as
blind spot monitoring to alert of nearby but less-than-visible cars, as well as
a forward collision alert that warns you when it detects an impending
front-side crash.
Powerful But Not Wild
For the first time in its
history, the Mustang will sport an independent rear suspension. What does that
mean for you? Simple: you can expect smoother rides during day-to-day driving.
If the 2016 Mustang has piqued
your interest, this exceptional sports coupe is already available at Ford
dealers near New Albany. Drop by at one today and request for a test drive to
experience the power and refinement the new Mustang offers.
