I doubt that they are frequently using S550 to test S650 features. Most tests can be simulated by a computer but real world test driving is something different. They might test an AWD setup in an S550 to get some numbers and such but from what we’ve heard the S650 will be built on a heavily...

This article might have some interesting information in-between the lines: https://racer.com/2021/11/10/mustang-and-corvette-gt3-pony-car-wars-coming-in-2024/ Mark Rushbrook from Ford Performance is quoted: "... we want to race Mustangs around the world, since it’s now a global sports car. Not...

I'ld bet my ass on it that the Mondeo will look like this: https://imgr1.auto-motor-und-sport.de/Ford-Evos-bigMobileWide2x-fccab64a-1786366.jpg There is almost no reason to belive it would look much different. Besides, I think it looks good and modern. Fitting for a sedan like Mondeo. On the...

If you are referring to the Mondeo/Fusion replacement that was posted by Ericc B on Friday then don’t worry. It’ll have 3-4 cylinder at best, paired with some sort of electrification, which is maybe optional. Maybe there will be performance versions but these would most likely be called ST or RS...

At least these lights look better in real life. The camo pictures from a week or two ago gave me a horrible impression... and maybe it's not a breaking but rather a daily driving light and since it's a prototype they disabled the tri-bars?😬 Very unlikely because it's most likely an automatic but...

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...
