Muscle Without Shouting

The Mustang Coupe keeps the classic long-hood, short-deck silhouette but with modern detailing that still turns heads on the motorway and in town, its footprint stretching roughly 4.81 m long and nearly 1.92 m wide. Proportions read as purposeful rather than ostentatious, and the low roofline (about 1.40 m) gives a planted, athletic stance that works equally well on straight roads and outside cafés. Under the skin the range is simple and honest: multiple variants of the 5.0‑litre V8 Ti‑VCT are offered in manual or automatic form with around 446–453 hp, which explains the visual confidence. Those engines also set expectations for fuel consumption and sound—this is muscle car territory, not a compact cruiser.

Cockpit: Retro Charm, Modern Touches

The interior blends retro cues with contemporary ergonomics, featuring supportive bolstered seats up front and a driver-focused instrument layout that prioritises clarity at speed. Materials are broadly good where it matters—stitching, leather, and aluminum touches—though some hard plastics remain in lower zones, a reminder that this is a performance-focused coupe rather than a luxury saloon. The infotainment and switchgear are straightforward and usable while driving, and the cabin controls are arranged so the essentials fall to hand without fuss. Overall the Mustang feels like a place built for engagement rather than for showing off tech specs.

Daily Life: Four Seats — Sort Of

Officially a four-seater, the rear bench is best used for children or for occasional adult trips thanks to limited legroom and a tight headspace created by the sloping roofline, while the two doors make rear access less convenient for daily school runs. The trunk holds about 381 litres, enough for two medium suitcases or a week’s groceries, and the 61‑litre tank gives real-world flexibility for longer trips. Curb weight sits around 1,808–1,837 kg, so expect a planted feel but plan for heavier handling at low speeds and in tight car parks. Payload is modest, reflecting the car’s focus on performance over family-hauler practicality.

Playful, Rear‑Wheel Mischief

Driving dynamics centre on the traditional rear‑drive layout and a torque-rich V8 delivering roughly 540 Nm, which makes roll-on acceleration decisive and overtaking effortless; depending on version 0–100 km/h ranges from about 4.4 to 5.3 seconds. The steering and chassis tune favour a communicative, slightly heavy feel that rewards committed inputs rather than razor-sharp precision, so corners are tackled with confidence rather than clinical accuracy. Weight is noticeable compared with dedicated sports cars, but the trade-off is impressive straight-line pace and a satisfying, physical driving experience. A manual gearbox adds engagement, while the automatic trims tend to be quicker in straight-line sprints and easier for everyday traffic.

Thirsty for Fun

Fuel consumption sits in the low double digits, roughly around 12.0–12.4 L/100 km in combined figures, and CO2 emissions sit near 275–282 g/km, which keeps the Mustang firmly in the “performance car” running-cost bracket. With a full 61 L tank and combined driving, the practical range hovers near 500 km but real-world urban or enthusiastic driving will cut that figure noticeably. Owners should budget for regular visits to the pump and expect higher fuel bills than smaller or hybrid cars, which is the trade-off for that V8 soundtrack and brisk performance. The overall running costs reflect the car's character: memorable to drive, and not shy about the price of fun.

Tech That Keeps Up

The Mustang’s infotainment supports contemporary smartphone integration and straightforward menus, while available driver aids cover essentials such as adaptive cruise and lane support to make longer trips less tiring. Instrumentation is readable at speed and configurable drive modes let the engine, steering and stability systems be tailored to the road or mood, preserving the car’s personality in more relaxed settings. Safety and assistance tech are competent rather than cutting‑edge, prioritising a clean driving experience over intrusive automation. In short, the electronics are there to complement the driving character, not to replace it.

Who Should Consider One

The Mustang Coupe suits drivers after an authentic V8 experience: strong straight-line performance, a charismatic engine note and classic proportions, with enough luggage and two usable rear seats for weekend escapes. It is less suited to those needing compact-car running costs, easy rear access every day or the last word in corner-carving precision, but it rewards buyers who prioritise emotion and presence over frugality. The range offers manual and automatic choices with slightly different performance and consumption figures, so prospective owners can pick the flavour that best matches their driving style. Expect a memorable ownership experience but budget for fuel and running costs accordingly.
