NEXT STAGE: Reengineering in 2023

The seventh-generation Mustang, scheduled to go on sale in summer 2023 in coupe and convertible configurations, was developed to be more of a driver's car than its predecessors. The interior now has a curved digital display made up of a 13.2-inch center screen and 12.4-inch instrument cluster. Ford removed physical buttons for the radio and climate control, moving those functions onto the center screen. Some of the digital displays and instrument gauge settings are similar to those found on the Mustang Mach-E electric crossover. The new Mustang also gets a new steering wheel design with a flat bottom instead of a circular one.

In terms of power, Ford is offering updated versions of the current 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder and 5.0-liter Coyote V-8 with a manual transmission.
