What happens in Vegas may usually stay in Vegas, but Ford might have just spilled the beans on some thrilling future plans. Rumors are swirling that the automaker showcased a potential four-door Mustang, dubbed the Mach 4, and an off-road variant at a recent dealer event in Las Vegas.
Automotive News reported that "people with knowledge" revealed these exciting developments, adding that CEO Jim Farley even shared an image of a lifted, off-road Baja model with special tires. Other possible additions to the Mustang lineup include an EcoBoost variant with a starting price around $55,000 CAD and a manual V8 convertible.
While no official timelines were given, the presentations in Vegas indicate that Ford is seriously considering expanding the Mustang family beyond its traditional two-door coupe. However, this news has sparked debate, particularly considering the mixed reception to the Mustang Mach-E using the Mustang name.
The Las Vegas event also gave dealers a glimpse of other exciting Ford projects. These included a van based on the Maverick pickup, intended to replace the discontinued Transit Connect, and the previously announced low-cost EV platform with potential sedan, crossover, and pickup body styles. While these models haven't been confirmed for production, they showcase Ford's commitment to innovation and electrification.
It's an exciting time for Ford fans, as the automaker continues to push boundaries and explore new possibilities. Whether you're a fan of the classic Mustang or eager to see Ford's electric vision come to life, there's no doubt that the future holds plenty of surprises.
