It may be winter in the United States, but Ford has begun shipping the all-new Mustang convertible to dealers across the country.
To convince buyers that the drop-top Mustang can be comfortable to drive in the cold season as well, Ford is bragging about the available heated seats and remote start feature which allow the Mustang convertible to be enjoyed year-round.
Ford also says the selectable drive modes with a snow/wet setting allow the Mustang convertible to perform well in harsh weather conditions. “Cold weather may have come unseasonably early this year, but with available heated seats, remote start and selectable drive modes with a snow/wet setting, Mustang is the perfect offering for the season,” said Melanie Banker, Mustang brand manager.
Heated seats, which also have a cooling feature, are standard on all premium Mustang convertibles, while remote start is standard on all automatic-transmission Mustang models. The latter feature enables customers to start the engine from the comfort of their home, allowing both the engine and the car’s interior to get warm.
Selectable drive modes are also standard on premium Mustang models, with the wet/snow setting tweaking throttle response, steering effort and traction control to mitigate wheel spin and maximize vehicle control. U.S. pricing start from $29,100 for the V6 model, $34,670 for the EcoBoost and $41,600 for the GT. All prices exclude $825 destination charges.
