The thought of a four-cylinder American muscle car might have Mustang diehards recoiling in horror, but according to Ford’s powertrain VP Bob Fascetti, the new model's Ecoboost four has the right numbers to excite drivers.
Speaking to TMR at the Sydney unveiling of the new Mustang, Mr. Fascetti said that there was no apprehension within Ford about putting a four-cylinder motor under the long bonnet of the Mustang.
“Not when it’s turbocharged like this,” Fascetti told TMR.
“Our success with the ecoboost lineup in North America has surprised even us. The F150, when we put the 3.5 Ecoboost in it - it’s now over a 40 percent mix [of overall F150 sales].”
