2015 Mustang Rendered Again!

2015 Mustang Rendered Again!

Posted on 11. May, 2012 by in News

Each passing day brings a new rumor about the 2015 Ford Mustang. Today, we have new renderings!

This rendering is brought to us by Inside Line. While the design is similar to some of the ones that we have posted in the last few months, there are a few things that have evolved since then. The most noticeable change is the front end design. It’s dramatically different from the current Mustang’s retro look and is a big change from other renderings we’ve seen, most of which have been a modernized version of the current design.

However, the new Mustang’s renderings do keep the traditional long hood/short deck proportions that have become very well-known as “Mustang.” The rear end also keeps the familiar light bar with the triple lens taillights.

However, while many have mentioned how similar the car is to the Evos concept that we shared last September, it is also very similar to the new 2013 Ford Fusion, especially when looking at the front end styling. While the 2013 Fusion and the 2015 Mustang rendering are both based on the Evos, we’re wondering–are they too similar? What do you think?

Inside Line also shares more about the rest of the car, beyond the design. They’re sharing many of the same rumors that we’ve been hearing since last year:

  • The new Mustang will be smaller. It’ll have a lot less sheet metal and a few more curves and will be sleeker and much less bulky than the current Mustang.
  • It’ll be a world car. The Mustang will now be sold all over the world, but we’re not sure exactly which markets outside the United States will actually be getting the new pony car. Will there be a right-hand drive version?
  • It is going to move to an independent rear suspension. After decades of using a straight axle rear end, the new suspension will improve performance and drive-ability.
  • The engines are staying the same, at least initially. Eventually, we are likely going to see an EcoBoost four cylinder with similar power to the current V-6, yet much better mileage. That engine just might not be available for the 2015 model year.

With these rumors being repeated over and over, we’re getting more and more confident that these are some of the things we’ll be seeing in the next Mustang. The timeline for the Mustang’s release also looks the same–we’re still expecting to get our first glimpses of the new Mustang at the 2014 New York Auto Show, less than two years away.

What do you think of the latest renderings?

    Its gonna be like 1974 when the mustang design went bad…. The 2013 design is awesome and now they’re gonna go to this… Very disappointing.

    I don’t think this is real. Do you see how the tree’s are obviously cloned? I think FORDs renderers would do a better job than that.

    and have a new Cobra R Fox with the new 5.8L also, but don’t sell the GT’s for $40k and the Cobra R’s for $60k though either.

    This has to be a joke! Kinda reminds me of when Ford wanted the Probe to be the next Mustang. Lets all hope that they don’t build this P.O.S!!

    It’s not the mustang concept…its the ford evo concept. My mustang club just had this discussion couple weeks ago. Google ford evo concept and your nerves will be calmed :)

    So they hired they same designers as the Mustang II is see… It’s good to know that Ford is letting their employees smoke crack at work. Why not just rename it the Pinto while their at it…

    Lol kind of looks like a shark. Its okay and may perform good. But at the end of the day that doesn’t matter. That car is ugly and doesn’t look like a mustang at all lol. If they decide to go with that car and bring it out in 2015 the mustang is going to flop.

    It’s simple Ford- for the fiftieth anniversary repeat with the 64.5 -66 body style with updated safety,engine,drivetrain and electronics and they’ll sell in the billions but with this one – the pony will be off to the glue factory.

      I second that!!! They need to build something very much like the 64.5 to 66 years or do a fox body retro look.

    What the hell are they thinking ? If they use this design why don’t they just save a ton of money and put a mustang badge on a Hundaii or a honda. Seems like they always forget what works and keep trying to rebuild the wheel. I agree that an updated, modern version with hints of the 65-66 body style would sell. Just look at the success of the 05-10 mustangs.

    Looks great to me. I just hope it isn’t FWD or AWD with a transverse engine. Keep it RWD. Otherwise, nice looking car.

    I would think they would fix the rear end on the one they have before they try and take all of the muscle look out of the whole care.
