atomcat68 Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 In 2014, C&D did do a render of what they thought the gen 6 Mustang would look like, and they were pretty close. I think this is why so many are willing to give them the benefit of the doubt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't doubt him. I was just saying that many are going to believe C&D because they were right on that one. It's like people believing a fortune teller because one prediction was correct and forget the 100 that were wrong. I think in a year we'll be laughing at all of their Bronco renderings too.

Shape is close, proportions are off, front end treatment is way off (unless something changed again). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They started with the right dots but didn't necessarily connect them correctly. I haven't seen it but that's how it was described to me in reference to the renders.

Harley Lover Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 Got it - boils down to they are guessing with what has been made public, but their guess is not informed by having seen the actual vehicle. It's free advertising for Ford, so I guess there's that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The windshield needs to be more upright and the sides more squared off rather than angled towards the roof but they got the idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct, the 4-door CGI is a conflation of hybrid V8 Mustang's looks and the Model E, the latter is more of a crossover with Mustang DNA front and back so less bulby. man, this is like describing how the chocolate changes ice cream into chocolate ice cream. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mlhm5 Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 Wonder just how large the market is for an electric Mustang? Ford only sold 75K in 2018 and IMO the e-Mustang will be a small percentage of that 75K. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twin Turbo Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 There will be a hybrid Mustang...........and a fully electric "Mustang inspired SUV". And worldwide they sold nearly 136,000 S550s in 2018! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T-dubz Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 (edited) I hope they change up the grille. It was cool when it first came out on the concept, but then the raptor has been using something similar for years and you can find knock off versions at every auto parts store. I think I’d prefer a simple mesh style grille with the bronco emblem on it, similar to a mustang grille.
