In our most recent “Latest News†post, we spoke about the excitement generated around the new Mustang Mach-E, the all-electric SUV that's set to shake up the segment later this year. However, the Mach-E isn’t the only new 2021 ‘Stang on the way, and for those looking for a more traditional pony car, you won’t be able to go wrong with the Mach 1.
Â
The new 2021 Mach 1 eschews electric or hybrid fanciness; instead, Ford relies on tried-and-true magic. This is an old-school sports machine in a familiar package—a fastback coupe that is set to thrill with a conventional gasoline 5.0-liter V8 engine that produces a wild 480 horses at 7,000 rpm and 420 lb.-ft. of torque at 4,600 rpm. Thanks to the incredible handling, this pony car is as impressive whipping around turns as it is shooting down straightaways, and purists will experience a shiver of delight as they operate the standard six-speed manual transmission.
It’s been 17 years since the Mach 1 has seen the shores of either Canada or the U.S., and we can’t wait for this limited-edition machine to arrive in spring 2021.
