It Looks Like The V6 Ford Mustang Is About To Die

Judging by information dug up by the Mustang6G forum, the days of the V6 Mustang are numbered
It Looks Like The V6 Ford Mustang Is About To Die

Particularly to us Europeans who aren’t even sold the damn thing, the entry-level V6 Mustang seems a bit of an oddity. Surely it’s a little superfluous given the existence of the more powerful, only slightly more expensive 2.3-litre Ecoboost model?

It seems Ford has decided it is indeed a little needless in the range, as new information dug up on a dealer ordering system by someone on the Mustang6G forum indicates the V6 won’t live past the car’s incoming facelift.

Both the V6 coupe and V6 convertible are conspicuously absent from the various options available, but in taking away the six-banger, Ford has added some spangly new parts for the 2018 model year.

The Blue Oval’s new 10-speed automatic gearbox will become optional - replacing the old six-speed - and magnetic dampers will be available on both the Ecoboost and GT.

How do you feel about the V6’s impending doom?

With the introduction of the EcoBoost I4, I am not surprised.

They should have just boosted the V6 and hoped that they don’t start challenging the V8
