The 2024 Ford Mustang EcoBoost is best described as the affordable, modern gateway to the Mustang experience, blending turbocharged performance with cutting-edge digital technology and impressive fuel efficiency.
Here are the key points that define it:
Turbocharged Performance: It features a potent 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine that produces 315 horsepower and 350 lb-ft of torque, which is a slight increase from the previous generation. It offers quick acceleration (0-60 mph in the mid-4 second range with the optional Performance Package) that is very respectable for a base model.
Modern Digital Interior: It has one of the most significant changes, embracing a high-tech cockpit with an immersive, configurable digital display. This includes a 12.4-inch digital gauge cluster that flows into a large 13.2-inch center touchscreen running Ford's SYNC 4 infotainment system.
A Balance of Power and Efficiency: The turbocharged engine is paired exclusively with a 10-speed automatic transmission, which helps deliver excellent power while achieving an EPA-estimated 26 mpg combined (22 city/33 highway), making it a practical choice for a daily driver compared to the V8 models.
Sharp, Evolutionary Styling: It boasts the aggressive, chiseled styling of the all-new seventh-generation Mustang, making it look every bit the modern muscle car.
