The Ford Mustang is an iconic, classic car that debuted way back in the 1960s. Since then, the Mustang has become a household name. Almost everyone can conjure up an image of a classic Mustang model when they hear the word ‘Mustang’. Although we are not even into the next year, we can tell you about the very best of the 2021 Ford Mustang.

Since 1964, the Ford Mustang has been a staple in Ford’s vehicle lineup. In fact, the Mustang currently holds the record for the longest continuous production period of all Ford vehicles. The Mustang has remained relevant for so long on the mainstream auto market both because of its iconic nature and because of Ford’s commitment to regularly updating and upgrading the Mustang according to modern standards. 

Many Ford drivers and classic car fans alike closely follow the production of the Mustang over the years and get excited each year to see the changes Ford has in store for the most famous vehicle in their lineup. For the 2021 model year, the all-new Mustang does not disappoint in terms of drive performance and modern features. Once it hits the mainstream auto market, the classic-turned-modern 2021 Mustang is expected to perform very well even when pitted against other vehicles in its class. 

It has been a long road to reach the all-new 2021 Mustang. If you’ve missed some of the updates on what’s in store for the Mustang for the 2021 model year, keep reading to discover 5 of the best features drivers can expect to see in the 2021 Ford Mustang. 

  1. Mach 1 Revival 

For the 2021 model year, Ford chose to revive the iconic Mach 1. The Mach 1 model has been absent from the mainstream auto market for 17 years, so its resurrection for the 2021 Mustang is very exciting for many drivers.

The 2021 Mach 1 comes equipped with an engine that’s more powerful than ever. It is a 5.0-L V8 engine that delivers 480 horsepower and 420 lb.-ft. of torque on the road and is paired with either a six-speed manual transmission or a 10-speed automatic transmission. 

With a modern style that still pays homage to the iconic Mach 1 of the past, the 2021 Mach 1 has an aesthetic that is both classy and fresh. The production of this revived Mustang model will be limited. The 2021 Mach 1 is expected to hit the auto market and be widely available from official Ford dealerships at some point in Spring 2021.

  1. Premium Features 

The 2021 Mustang offers something for everyone. It is available in four different models: EcoBoost, GT, Bullitt, and Mach 1. Each model comes with its own special premium features and amenities—and its own price tag. 

Some of the most notable available premium features for the 2021 Mustang lineup include climate-controlled front seats, high-end interior materials, a configurable digital gauge cluster, leather upholstery, and much more. 

  1. Available Performance Packages 

When it comes down to it, the Mustang is a very performance-focused model. As such, it makes sense that the 2021 Mustang is available with the addition of several different exciting performance packages. 

Depending on the Mustang model you choose, you can add packages such as the High-Performance package, the Performance Pack Level 1, the Performance Pack Level 2, etc. These performance packages are all designed to help boost the 2021 Mustang’s performance on the road and make this classic car more engaging for drivers. 

  1. Advanced Safety and Driver-Assist Features 

It hit the auto market way back in the 1960s, but the Ford Mustang has come a long way since its original debut. 

The 2021 Ford Mustang comes equipped with a host of advanced safety and driver-assistance features that help minimize driver distraction and reduce the risk of collisions and other accidents on the road. 

Available high-tech safety and driver-assist features for the 2021 Mustang include but are not limited to forward-collision warning, automated emergency braking, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, blind-spot monitoring, and rear cross-traffic alert. 

  1. Impressive Cargo Space 

In recent years, trends on the mainstream auto market have shifted away from athletic sedans like the Ford Mustang toward trucks and SUVS, which tend to be more practical for a wider range of drivers. One of the advantages that models from these vehicle classes tend to have over sedans is storage space. 

The design- and drive-performance-focused Ford Mustang doesn’t seem like a model that would offer very much cargo space inside. However, the Mustang actually offers an impressive amount of cargo space. It can hold up to 12 carry-on suitcases at a time and features a huge center-console bin as well.
