When you think of American muscle, the first car that comes to mind is the Mustang. Ford has been producing the Mustang for more than 55 years, and it has turned into a sophisticated and mighty steed. You can get the 2023 Ford Mustang in two body styles, a rag-top convertible or a hard-shell coupe. Read on to learn more about this rear-wheel muscle car.


Check It Out

The first engine available in the ’23 Mustang is a 2.3L Ecoboost that delivers 310 horsepower and 350 lb-ft of maximum torque. You can choose the 2.3L high-performance engine with a larger twin-scroll turbo compressor and get 330 horsepower with 350 lb-ft of max torque. The ’23 Mustang GT boasts an incredible 5.0L Ti-VCT V8 powertrain that produces heart-pumping acceleration with 450 horsepower and 410 lb-ft of torque.

If you want maximum track prowess, look at the Mustang Mach1. The Mach1 has a 5.0L Ti-VCT V8 engine tuned and calibrated for optimal performance. The available Mach 1 handling package provides agile handling with the Mach1’s 470 horsepower and 410 lb-ft of maximum torque. This powertrain is paired with a six-speed manual transmission that has rev-matching tech.


Independent Rear Suspension

The ’23 Mustang rides incredibly well with its independent rear suspension that is standard across the lineup. This suspension system allows the Mustang’s rear wheels to move individually. This increases handling and ride quality over bumps, through turns, and down straightaways.


Ride Damping

The ’23 Mustang has an available MagneRide Damping System capable of responding 1,000 times/second with each damper. As a result, you have a smooth and balanced ride that builds your confidence.


Interior Design

The driver-centric cockpit of the ’23 Mustang places all vehicle controls within easy reach of the driver. The available heated and cooled seats keep you comfortable while driving in town or flying down the track. The available heated steering wheel keeps your fingers warm even on the coolest mornings, while the accent-stitched center console provides excellent storage for your small items.


Power-Assisted Steering

The ’23 Mustang has selectable electric power-assisted steering, EPAS. This incredible system provides three power-assist settings to give you the steering control you want and need. These settings are comfort, normal, and sport. The comfort setting is excellent for everyday driving and requires the least amount of steering effort from the driver.

The second setting, normal, is the perfect balance between comfort and sport, providing steering support but allowing you to engage with the drive more. Finally, the last setting is sport, and this is perfect for when you want an engaging drive that makes you feel connected to the road.
