They called him "eagled-eyed member"
I think it's time for a new nickname @amk91 :D
I'm glad they referred to this forum. Many would've just quoted LinkedIn and would've called it their source...
It does make sense and maybe there won't be another non hybrid l4. I'm looking forward to the v8 hybrid.
I still can't believe that we have to wait until 2025 for the hybrid though... Maybe as a MY25 in 2024? But then it would need a refresh a year after... or they sell the hybrid in a "Shelby"...
I think you nailed the front. Still not sure about your proportions - or overall appearance. For some reasons I still think it's odd although it checks a lot of boxes ;)
boy... that looks ugly a.f....
Like a cheap Audi A6 version... to me it doesn't carry any resemblance with the Mustang rear lights...
Anyhow, it's the Fusion/Mondeo and it will have at least slightly different rear lights than the S650. There's still hope ;)
That’s not how I read the article…
It was an interesting article indeed but it focusses more on future improvements rather than on the ongoing chip shortage. Carmakers always struggle to implement new stuff. It took like what – 100 years – before the first redesign of the dashboard occurred? I...
That doesn’t make much sense to me. Test vehicles and mules barely need any semiconductors. They’re one-offs, no mass products. I’m sure Ford can spare a few parts for future cash cows and poster cars ;)
Besides, the chip shortage is partially based on the fact that even modern cars use the...
He also said that the transmissions would carry over and that a hybrid won’t be available from the get go but rather be introduced with the refresh in ~2025.
That in in line with Ford Europe saying that they will only sell hybrids and full EVs from 2026 onwards. What a coincidence…
Regarding...
That article is nicely written. However, it doesn’t contain any real news regarding S650 and reads itself more like a summary or clickbait. To me it feels like someone was closely monitoring this forum ;)
Don't get me wrong. I'm a hundred percent sure that a pure V8 S650 would sell like ice cream on a hot summer day but I doubt Ford is willing to pay the price. They would have to implement an OPF (eradicating the sound/soul of the car) and still pay the high CO² emissions.
They never sold the...
I don't know how reliable FOX "News" is in that regard but 2025 seems very late... It would however, be in line with the FORD Europe plan to replace every car sold with a full EV OR hybrid by 2026.
Then again it would mean that we (here in Europe) either don’t get the S650 until 2025 or that...
I don’t see Ford selling „a ton of these thru the remainder of the decade without the additional investment for a new model”… The current version is already pretty dated. Don’t get me wrong, I like the car but it’s getting old.
Maybe it’s just me but I definitely want a NEW Mustang. The...
I doubt that the source has reliable information regarding a S650 GT500. Main reason is a potential release date of such a car. The GT500 was introduced after the S550 refresh as a “the best we can do” for that generation. A S650 GT500 would therefore be released in 2027 or so?! (S650...
I made the bold prediction of an EV Mustang comming around 24/25... Well turns out I completely missed an exklusive 'REUTERS' story dating back to my birthday... May 25th :D
Anyhow, apparently Ford will develop two dedicated EV platforms until 2025, one for trucks (TE1) and another one for...
It looks like one of these cheap aftermarket display that imitate Tesla... Isn’t it mostly controlled by touch? If it’s optional it’s fine. Otherwise plz give me physical buttons to push!
I absolutely dislike the vertical alignment of the screen. It should be horizontal and placed in the...
If I had to make that decision it would be fairly easy:
Start the S650 program ASAP and be the first with a hybrid muscle car.
Knowing that the platform isn't meant for full electrification start expanding on the Mustang JET... Get the fan base excited for an EV Mustang. Furthermore, while...
That does sound quite concerning… In addition, I thinks it’s almost granted that S650 will be pushed back… Ford has problems building the F150 and I doubt they have any semiconductors to spare for anything other than the cash cow itself. Besides, wouldn’t a new car with modern tech require many...
I know nothing about Nascar except that “Vagisil” will make a formidable driver :D
Jokes aside, I thought they had presented their next gen Nascar already?!
Besides, Mark Rushbrook said that “ our world is changing with hybrid powertrains, full-electric powertrains, if we were going to do this...
NEVER ask that question when a forced idiology is coming along ;)
Things might have to change but it's not an open minded discussion about how to find the best solution but rather a toxic and biased sh!t-show.
I think that the S650 will be an upgraded S550 with hybrid options. However, I doubt...
That doesn't look like a Mustang at all - more like an exotic... I would buy it though :D
Anyhow, I think we should watch the 8th of July where the future of dodge will be 'revealed'. I think that Dodge and Mustang have a lot in common but that the Dodge fanboys are a little bit more open to...
