2015 Mustang News: New Leaked Images Revealed Online
While many have been baffled by the leaked images of the sixth generation Mustang four months ago, KGP Photography has done it again - but this time it leaks images of the new Ford without all the unnecessary cladding.
The 2015 Ford Mustang prototype has been spotted in all its naked glory. The prototype was seen being driven around a private Ford-owned test track at an undisclosed location in the United States, says Car Magazine.
Judging from the photos, the 2015 Ford Mustang looks very much like a muscled up Evos, says Auto Blog. Ford Evos was unveiled late August 2011 in Berlin, Germany. A representative in the video below said that the Ford Evos concept shows the future direction of Ford - possibly hinting on how the "Evos-like" 2015 Ford Mustang would look.
According to Car Magazine, the newly leaked images of the 2015 Ford Mustang prototype show "slimmer headlights, prominent trapezoidal grille and heavily contoured bonnet." The prototype is very much similar to an earlier prediction made by the site, with shrunken grille and headlights, and sharply profiled rear arches.
While the leaked prototype images reveal much of its exterior, car experts are still wondering what the car boasts of under its hood.
Earlier, Edmunds has reported a possible weight loss on the 2015 Ford Mustang. Citing an anonymous source, the report noted that the sixth generation Mustang might be shedding a minimum of 400 pounds. Also noting Ford, the 2014 Ford Mustang V6 coupe has a curb weight of 3,523 pounds when equipped with the six-speed automatic transmission and 3,501 pounds when equipped with the six-speed manual transmission. The weight loss would put the 2015 Ford Mustang around 3,100 to 3,200 pounds.
A 5.0-liter V8 with smaller turbocharged options are also highly likely says Auto Blog. The 2014 Ford Mustang has a 3.7-liter V6 engine.
As for the price, the 2015 Ford Mustang might go up by about 10 percent. The source told Edmunds that the 2015 Ford Mustang's "maximum price is going to go up about 10 percent and that will be depending on equipment."
