2015 Ford Mustang Will Use Evos Concept Design

Ford’s future design direction clearly lies within the lines of last year’s Evos concept. You’d be forgiven for thinking that the Fusion and Mondeo were twins of the concept if you were only looking at the front end, and the Fiesta ST also makes use of that gaping grille.
But Ford is expected to extent the Evos’ lines to a design icon for the brand. The Blue Oval’ Kinetic Design language 2.0 will make its presence felt in the Ford Mustang, as the famous pony car becomes less of its retro self and more futuristic. We don’t expect the next ‘Stang to be unrecognizable, but overall, the upper grille will be much bigger (and hexagonal) than the lower one.

If memory serves us well, Ford usually previews new Mustangs with a concept, since they don’t want to get it wrong, especially now that it’s going global. So you’ll still have a “Yey” or “Ney” in the design.

The Wall Street Journal reports that the sixth generation model will keep the "shark-nosed grille and round headlights" of the classic car, but it will borrow the lines of the Fusion. From what we understand, the rest of the body will have almost the same proportions as the concept, so we could be looking at a very modern ride.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
