2026 Ford Mustang

Thirty-three MPG on the highway is not the number most people expect to lead a Mustang conversation, but it is one of the reasons this 2026 Mustang EcoBoost Coupe makes such a strong everyday sports car. EPA estimates are 22 MPG city, 33 highway and 26 combined, giving you a car that can make the Wesley Chapel-to-New Tampa commute interesting without treating every drive like a trip to the gas station. Adriatic Blue Metallic gives this one plenty of visual personality before you ever press the start button. The 2.3L EcoBoost works through Ford's 10-speed automatic, with a 3.15 limited-slip rear axle helping manage power when you lean into the accelerator. Selectable drive modes let the car change character depending on the drive, while Track Apps gives you performance-focused information when you want to explore more of what the Mustang can do. Independent rear suspension and electronic power-assisted steering round out a setup that is just as comfortable heading through Land O Lakes during the week as it is taking the longer route toward Dade City when traffic finally disappears. This one is also refreshingly clean from a styling standpoint. Ford deleted the rear spoiler and did not add the black-painted roof, leaving the Adriatic Blue body lines to do the work. The 18-inch Shadow Silver painted cast-aluminum wheels and 235/50ZR18 all-season tires keep the stance sharp without trying to turn an EcoBoost into a GT look-alike. LED signature lighting, sequential LED taillamps and rain-sensing wipers give the exterior useful detail without clutter. Parks Plus paint protection and rain-repellent treatment are a natural match for a color like this in Florida, where intense sun and sudden storms are part of the ownership experience. Black Onyx cloth seating keeps the cabin straightforward, but there is nothing dated about the cockpit. A 12.4-inch digital cluster sits directly in front of the driver while a 13.2-inch center display handles SYNC 4. Dual-zone automatic climate control, Intelligent Access with push-button start, two smart-charging USB ports and a split-folding rear seat make the Mustang easier to use on days when it has to be more than a fun car. This new Mustang also includes the Parks Ford Lifetime Powertrain Warranty from Parks Ford of Wesley Chapel. A crowded parking lot in New Tampa is where the less exciting technology starts earning its keep. Rear parking sensors and the rear-view camera help with tight spaces, while Ford Co-Pilot360 adds driver-assistance support once you are moving. The 4G modem supports Ford app capability, and the Connectivity Package includes one year with the Ford app. Six-speaker audio handles the soundtrack when you are not more interested in what the EcoBoost is doing. The smaller details keep the Mustang practical without dulling the experience. Automatic LED headlamps, rain-sensing wipers, power mirrors, cruise-friendly steering-wheel controls and a tire inflator and sealant kit are already here. The
