Pricing Changes for V-8 Models
For the 2025 Ford Mustang, buyers opting for the V-8 engine will see an increase in pricing. The base price for the GT Fastback has climbed $2,600, now starting at $47,055. The GT Premium trim starts at $51,575, while the GT Convertible Premium is priced at $57,075. The most significant increase is seen in the Dark Horse trim, which is up $2,645 for 2025. The Dark Horse Premium now starts at $69,870—an increase of $3,645 from the previous year.
Updates to Standard Equipment
Despite the price increases, Ford has also included more standard equipment for buyers of the more expensive GT models. Dual-zone climate control and leather/vinyl trimmed seats are now standard for GT Fastback models. Additionally, the 10-speed automatic transmission is listed as a no-cost option, whereas it was a $1,595 upgrade in the previous year. However, other options such as active exhaust and Brembo brakes come with a higher price tag in 2025.
Changes in Trim Levels
For the 2025 Mustang EcoBoost, prices remain the same, but changes in standard equipment have been made. Dual-zone climate control now comes as standard, resulting in a lower price for the 101A Equipment package, down to $2,095. However, the EcoBoost High-Performance package is no longer available in the configurator for the 2025 model year.
EcoBoost Model Changes
Ford has improved the value proposition for the EcoBoost models by adding standard dual-zone climate control. This has lowered the price of the 101A Equipment package and made the EcoBoost models more attractive for buyers looking for a turbocharged four-cylinder pony car.
Overall Value and Comparison
Ford emphasizes that the Mustang continues to offer the best value for horsepower in the market, especially with its V-8 engines. The inclusion of a 10-speed automatic transmission as a no-cost option and standard dual-zone climate control across all 2025 Mustangs adds to the overall value proposition for buyers. The updates to pricing and equipment aim to provide buyers with a better driving experience and more features for their money in the 2025 Ford Mustang.
