FordÂ’s iconic Mustang is poised to play a crucial role in FordÂ’s future by expanding beyond its traditional role as a single performance figurehead into a complete range of global models. And the companyÂ’s Australian arm looks like the source for all the necessary hardware.
In a secret product planning meeting last fall, key Ford executives discussed a bold strategy to take the legendary Mustang mainstream. Ideas include both sedan and wagon variants of AmericaÂ’s original muscle car, with those cars joining the traditional coupe when the sixth-generation Mustang arrives in U.S. showrooms in 2011, AutoWeek sources say.
