Ford Mustang is coming to India! Here is how the iconic sportscar looks

After years of waiting , Ford Motors has finally brought the prancing horse to Indian shores. A legend already in the automotive industry, Ford Mustang was unveiled in India last week.

The sporstcar will be launched in India in the second quarter of 2016
Ford Mustang features one of the most recognisable emblem on any car. Fixed in the middle of the front grille, the galloping horse emblem hints at the character of the car.
Introduced in the year 1964, Ford Mustang sold globally at present is the sixth generation, and that is the one we will get here in India.


Ford has said that the car that will be brought to India will be identical to what it sells in other markets with minimal changes. The changes would only be to meet Indian norms and requirements.
The car showcased by Ford here was the GT Variant. In other countries, Ford also has the 2.3 litre EcoBoost and a V6 variant. Ford Mustang comes as a convertible as well but it is safe to assume that, the convertible will not be available here anytime in the near future.
The GT variant that India will come with only one engine option. It will have 5 litre V8 engine which will produce 420 hp of power and a torque of 529 NM. This will help the car reach a top speed of 250 kmph.

The engine will come mated to a 6-speed SelectShift automatic gearbox
Among the many eye-catching design features that Ford Mustang has, the triple-bar LED tail lamps is probably the most striking with the sequential turn indicator.
Ford Motors said that till now it has sold 9 million Mustangs around the world.
Selectable Drive Modes (SDM), allow them to toggle easily between normal, snow/wet, sport and track modes to quickly adjust steering effort, engine response, and transmission and electronic stability control settings
Premium features like navigation, push button start, passive entry, power folding mirrors, and a rear camera are standard on the all-new Mustang
In Mustang's 5 decades of existence , it is only now that Ford has started selling right hand drive variant of Mustang.

This has helped Ford Mustang in growing its global reach to countries like Australia, South Africa, Japan and now India.
