Ford Shows 4-door Mustang Hybrid to Dealers; Price <$40k, <4 sec 0-60, size/design likened to Panamera

[2026FX]

Any news website that paywalls its content is questionable to me, IMO.

Anyways, this is seemingly the same information people have been regurgitating for the last three years. I'll believe it when I see mules start running around here in Dearborn.

There is an old saying, you get what you pay for, if you want quality news, then you have to pay for it.

Because they're the gold standard of the enthusiast industry and have proven to be somewhat effective at appealing to younger and more affluent buyers which is the holy grail. Young and rich are the demographic you want as a brand when it comes to make aspirational products.

So learning from that isn't a terrible idea. It doesn't mean Fords gonna charge as much as Porsche does for their 4 door, dealers were told sub 40k starting.

Heck of a way to say made one of the greatest sports cars ever.

Def a solid product, but pretty piss poor styling as far as mid-engine supercars go. I'm really digging the c9 renderings we're seeing. If it looks like this, it'll be a winner.

He needs to learn the rest like using a different name though. Porsche does things for a reason.

But they're trying to turn the mustang badge into a porshe badge in the sense that mustang becomes its own brand.

Bro it doesn’t make sense, there was no car called the “Porsche”

Like I said it was a name just like Ford. Look up the history of Porsche.

That would be like Porsche looking at Ford and saying they want the 911 to be a badge and brand like Ford. (Others have stated 911-4/Carrera 4 for a sedan, Mach E would be like Porsche 911 Carrera E)
