2022 Ford Mustang to go AWD with Hybrid V8?
Rumor has it that electrified V8 will spearhead the 2022 arrival of the next-generation Ford Mustang.
Ford’s muscle car icon, the Mustang, will enter its next generation in 2022, and Autocar understands it will be brought into a new era with its first hybrid powertrain.
An electrified variant of the Mustang will join the electric Mustang Mach-E, which is due to be delivered to customers from this autumn, as Ford’s electrification roll-out gathers momentum. Ford plans to launch 18 mild-hybrid and full-hybrid models by 2022, and the next Mustang is thought to be one of those.
Ford is hoping for the new model — codenamed S650 — to build on the success of the current, S550-generation car, which has been on sale since 2015 and was the first Mustang to be marketed and sold globally.
