40+ mpg 2015 Ford Mustang SVO
Fantastic! Thats solid thinkin on fords part.
It should power just under 280 hp mark and have stick shift 6 spd. I have an 84 and 86 svo and need a donor engine. Bring on the new SVO I am a fan B4 it is even built. I hope they make it the mustang Flagship again. just dont make it so much more expensive than the V8 this time around. |
Link?

Doesn't say 40 mpg. While it's definitely possible to get 40 mpg out of the Ecoboost four-banger motor, there's little chance of that being the official EPA highway figure for the Mustang...

Yah I imagine the epa being near that but not quite 40. The new chassis looks alot more aero dynamic then the previous few chassis. If they put that in a smaller rwd car that would be hardcore. Makes me mad that I have around 300 hp and only get 15 mpg on a good day. Fml.

Oh gawd, I may be one of those a holes driving a mustang in a few years. :eek:
So far Im hearing the boat tail like rear end where the center pokes out more than the edges isnt cool with a lot of people. THey rather the rear be flat like that of the charger, challenger and previous mustangs. |
Dealers are saying it will be over 300 HP. Allegedly, 315 is the expected amount. None of the Ford dealerships I have spoken to know anything about fuel economy, let alone 40+ MPG claims.
The @Ford magazine (internal Ford publication) does not mention it either. "The Mustang EcoBoost engine uses direct injection, variable cam timing and turbocharging to deliver plenty of performance and projected segment-leading fuel economy. A unique intake manifold and turbocharger housing enable it to deliver the performance Mustang drivers expect with output projected at more than 305 horsepower and 300 lb.-ft of torque." @Ford, December, Page 13. Keep in mind, Top Gear should be using imperial gallons, too. Will check the Mustang forum I use if there is any more recent, or more detailed word. |
nice shots
I really hope they make a distinct appearance though that 5.0 is hot!

It DOES look like am accord! I saw that all of the manufacturers are doing turbo 4 ' s in their big muscle cars
