 Mustang Outsells Muscle Car Competitors2015 Mustang sales are set to hit six figures for the first time since 2007, leaving the Challenger and Camaro in Ford's wake.
By: Lake Shore Ford As of June, 2015, 68,290 Mustangs have been sold, putting Ford on target for breaking six-figure sales in 2015 for the first time since 2007. Ford officially responded to the sales surge, saying, “Year-to-date, Mustang sales are up 55%, with a 116% increase in southern California, America’s largest sports car market. The 2.3L EcoBoost engine is now that market’s best-selling Mustang engine.” The EcoBoost engine is brand new for the 2015 model year, giving drivers a fuel-efficient Mustang that doesn't compromise on power (it's rated at 310 hp and 320 lb-ft of torque yet earns 31 highway mpg). Drivers seeking more classic, naturally aspirated engines can find a standard 3.7L V6 with 300 hp and 280 lb-ft of torque, earning 28 highway mpg as well as the Mustang GT's 5.0L V8 with 435 hp and 400 lb-ft of torque. The key to the Mustang's success over the Camaro and the Challenger is a simple one: it appeals to all generations. The new turbocharged engine and modern styling makes the pony car a hit with the Millennials while Baby Boomers and Generation X can enjoy some of the old muscle car flair that comes with a traditional V6 or V8 engine and some of the design throwbacks to the Mustangs of old.
