I can’t think of anyone I’ve known who has said they dislike convertibles, those sexy two doors with collapsible roofs and tiny back seats.
Mustang does well, such as no-nonsense controls and switches placed where one expects to find them.
Ford has kept the gimmicks to a minimum, loaded the car with lots of creature comforts – including comfortable, well-bolstered front seats – and a soft top that is easy to operate.
The Mustang EcoBoost Convertible is powered by a 2.3L turbocharged four-cylinder engine (330 hp / 350 lb-ft.)
On the road, the 2.3L EcoBoost engine offers impressive acceleration and responsiveness both off the line and at speed. Interestingly, peak horsepower doesn’t arrive until 6,000 rpm, but peak torque sits right in the middle of the power band (3,000 rpm), an excellent spot for accessing its 350 lb-ft.
It’s twitchy fast, responsive, and more powerful than its numbers suggest. And it’s a fun car to drive.
