2024 Mustang Info

Looks solid but nothing revolutionary

What's with the lights in the grille?  Does it project a pony logo up there or something?

 

[rmc523 4,428]

I didn't like it at all from the official photos, but I like it a lot more once I saw it in a live video.  I feel like it probably looks much better in person than it photographs 

[AM222 102]

Looks like the headlight shape is not the only thing inspired by the 2015 Mustang, I noticed that even the hood shape with its taller power bulge resembles the one on the '15 Mustang. The 2018 hood has a lower profile inspired by the Shelby GT350.

I wasn't a fan of the grill when that one leaked photo came out...it looks far better in "real life"

 

[Chrisgb 202]

Rather anticlimactic IMO. I was hoping for a new design language, but as the spy photos started rolling out, I became more and more disheartened. 

Real horses haven't changed much over the last nine years either, though.

The differences from the last gen S550 are substantial.

It’s evolutionary yes, but much like the 10-14  S197 hugely elevated the 05-09’s design (in the vast majority of the Mustang community’s opinion at least) this car has done the same for the 18-23 S550, IMO.

I’m getting a 911 vibe from this shot.

Good article from Ezra Dyer at Car and Driver about S650 Mustang, Mach-E, the future of Mustang, and what the "Mustang" name really means. Mustang Is a Vibe (caranddriver.com)

 

The name "Mustang" is an attitude, not a format. We can argue about whether a given car lives up to the idea of a Mustang, but how it gets there is going to change. Maybe the 2024 Mustang will be the last one that shares its basic setup with the 1964 original. Maybe it won't. But eventually, the Mustang as we know it will die. The idea, though, will live on—fast, fun, and a little bit juvenile. In whatever form it takes.

Does the IP have a HUD option? I can't help looking at the back of it and the centre console thinking that's got to be a pain to keep clean. Overall though, I like it.

I would be surprised if it does.  They had it on the Escape and now dropped it.

Lower models don't have the two screens connected.  Kind of a weird thing to do (and uggo).

I liked the feature, too bad it didn't catch on.

I don't know how I feel about that. Did someone steal my gaming station?

I suspect once you actually drive it the displays are very functional and ergonomic.  I know that’s the case with our 22 Nautilus.

I don't doubt that. I'm grabbing a test drive when they come out.

After further review, the interior is starting to grow on me except for the screen setup.  I hate screens that are not integrated into the dash.  Would really like this if they would integrate them into the dash. Would love to see gauge binnacles in front of the gauge screen.  This trend with screens  "stuck on"  seems lazy design to me...

I thought the same thing but after owning our 22 Nautilus for a few months I’m a convert.  The ergonomics far outweigh the looks.

My "Tablet" is lower on the console. A little slow to start after starting the car, I am a convert and enjoy it. I feel I won't notice the difference too much on the Mustang.

Does your Nautilus's screen have a slight tilt to it or is it 100 percent vertical? That was my biggest complaint about the screen in the Escape. I really wanted it to be tilted 10-20 degrees

100% vertical and parallel to the dash.  I love it.

[akirby 16,891]

For comparison.  Having it angled slightly towards the driver would be better (for the driver) but harder for passengers.

 

 

[fuzzymoomoo 7,552]

I would have liked it tilted back a little because it physically hurt me to use it but I also have nerve issues so it could just be me.
