Silver 2019 Ford Mustang driving on the highway | Ford Dealer | Houston, TXThe Ford Mustang has always been known as the top name when it comes to muscle cars. The Mustang is not only fast and fun but powerful, and designed to hug the road with every turn. Unfortunately, many people think that getting a muscle car is out of their reach because they overlook the base model for the higher level trims. Well lucky for Ford buyers, the 2019 Ford Mustang’s base model will provide you with everything you need in a muscle car at a great price.

Power and Performance

The base model Mustang provides you with all the power and performance that you would expect in your first muscle car. The vehicle comes equipped with a 2.3-liter EcoBoost engine that outputs up to 310 horsepower and 350 pound-feet of torque paired with twin independent variable cam timing.

The 10-speed transmission uses Ford’s patented technology to provide for the optimum ratio of both progression and performance. You can count on fast and accurate upshifting and downshifting through the use of steering wheel-mounted shift paddles.

The available drive modes can help you to control the dynamics of your vehicle driving, allowing you to choose from normal, snow/wet, sport, track, or drag strip with the flip of a switch. With the 2019 Ford Mustang, you can also enjoy the benefits of launch control, which integrates the brakes, the traction control, and the powertrain to provide for quick starts and real-time performance you can view directly on your LCD screen.

Technology and Convenience

The base model Ford Mustang provides you with all the technology you will need to make your drive easier. Available SYNC 3 active technology is easy to use and responds to your voice. You can use the system to locate your favorite restaurant or the closest gas station or to enter simple directions into navigation, allowing you to keep hands-free and your eyes on the road. The system also includes Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, which allows you to connect with your contacts and music with the sound of your voice.

You can customize your technology with the ability to change your view and gauges as well as the color on your LCD screen. You also can opt for Track Apps that can allow you to instantly view your vehicle’s performance metrics.

MyMode

With the available MyMode, you can customize and set your favorite driving settings. Whether you have specific steering or exhaust settings you can set it and forget it with MyMode; the vehicle will remember it the next time you get behind the wheel.
