New Airbag Technology In The 2015 Ford Mustang

New Airbag Technology In The 2015 Ford Mustang

Ford is introducing an all new inflatable airbag restraint system that provides the front seat passenger in a Ford Mustang with knee airbag protection while significantly reducing system size and weight. This allows for a roomier interior for more comfort
This is a first for Ford as they introduce this first passenger knee airbag system packaged inside the glove box door that has 15 patents granted and more pending
The all new Mustang has twice as many airbags, twice as many peripheral crash sensors and additional pretensioning safety belt technology compared to the outgoing 2014 Mustang model. The new airbag will be introduced later this year as part of a standard comprehensive safety system that includes a more robust package of sensors, safety belt anchor pretensioners, improved exterior lighting and double the total number of airbags on the all-new Mustang. See the video below to see how it was designed and works:

2015 Mustang Pace Car At Nascar Race

2015 Mustang Pace Car At Nascar Race

This past Sunday was fathers day around the world and again the marketing engine at Ford came up with another genius way to get the new 2015 Ford Mustang GT in front of a major audience on TV for the Quicken Loans 400 NASCAR Sprint race that was held at the Michigan International Speedway. The race ready and race red 2015 Ford Mustang GT was prepared with special "50 Years" graphics, special race rubber on all four corners and crazy bright LED pace car lights, that included an aerodynamic roof mounted set.

The 2015 Mustang ace car was powered by the new 420 horsepower and 390 ft/lbs of torque 5.0L V8 engine and was the perfect choice for the event seeing as the new 2015 Mustang is being built at the local Flat Rock Assembly plant, it felt like a home event of sorts for the Mustang crew. Ford have marketed Mustang Pace cars to the public in the past like the replicas of the 1964, 1979 and 1994 Indy 500 and the 2011 Daytona 500 pace cars for retail sale, but from what we hear Ford has no plans at this time to market replicas of this pace car to consumers, so that means this will probably added to Fords Collection of one of a kind collectibles. What do you think - would you like to have this in your garage?

Euro Spec Mustangs Sell Out In Just 30 Seconds

In a recent blog post, we showed you how Ford Europe was going to market the new 2015 Ford Mustang during the 2014 EUFA cup final in Lisbon Portugal between Real Madrid and Athletico Madrid a few weeks ago. Well after initial concerns about sales of the new mustang being slow to start with in the European market, Ford can give themselves a pat on the back and view the advertising campaign a success after the first 500 Euro spec Mustangs sell out in just 30 seconds. Ford said that over 9,300 people attempted to snag one of the special all-new muscle cars and they are very happy that the European market is receiving the new Mustang so enthusiastically!

"We knew there was huge excitement building for the new Ford Mustang coming to Europe, but the response during the UCL Final was overwhelming," said Roelant de Waard, VP of marketing, sales and service for Ford's European outfit. "It was a truly special way to kick off the Ford Mustang era in Europe."

Customers who successfully reserved a slot haven't been notified just yet – that will come in the next few weeks – although we do know that the 500 cars were available to drivers in 20 different European countries. The specs, though, were limited.

Hardtop fans are limited to Race Red, while Convertible drivers will get Magnetic Silver – the 2015 Mustang's launch colors. Despite the lack of a choice on color, owners will be able to choose between the Mustang's two European engines, the 2.3-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder and the brawny, 5.0-liter V8. The initial run of cars will include my ford Touch with Sync and navigation, black leather seats with heating and ventilation functions, park assist and 19-inch wheels. We do not have any information currently on how much the car will cost in the European livery.
