Sources familiar with the replacement of the current Mustang told Automotive News that its life cycle is six to eight years.
Ford has been discreet with the car, beyond the promise that work is being done on a style of hybrid functionality.
However, the convertible and two-door are expected to share parts of the platform with the newly introduced Ford Explorer and Lincoln Aviator, transfer to a rear-wheel drive configuration by 2020, and be hybrids. They also come with an optional all-wheel drive, which can mean the Mustang will get this feature to help you compete more in the snowband states with the Dodge Challenger GT.
The Mustang is lately the best-selling of the 3 American pony cars, ahead of the Challenger and the 3rd Chevrolet Camaro, which would be suspended as soon as the new Mustang arrives.
The Mustang is one of the most durable American car models and has been in constant production since its arrival as a 1964.5 model.
