In a move that is sure to disappoint some Mustang enthusiasts, Ford has announced that it will be raising prices on V-8-powered Mustangs for the 2025 model year. The price increase will vary depending on the specific model and trim level, but it is expected to be in the range of $2,000 to $3,000. This is the second price increase for the Mustang in less than a year, as Ford also raised prices on the EcoBoost models for the 2024 model year.
There are a number of factors that are likely contributing to the price increase, including rising production costs, the global chip shortage, and the increasing popularity of the Mustang. The Mustang is one of Ford’s most popular vehicles, and it has been in high demand in recent years. The V-8-powered models are particularly popular with performance enthusiasts, and they are often seen as the “true” Mustangs. However, the V-8 engines are also more expensive to produce than the EcoBoost engines, and this is likely a major factor in the price increase.
