All-New Ford Mustang: SuspensionStarting a significantly sti�er body structure as the foundation, the all-new Ford Mustang features a fully independent suspension system specifically optimized and tuned to achievea world-class blend of vehicle dynamics and improved ride quality. This is expected to be the quickest and most refined Mustang yet.

• Double-ball-joint MacPherson strut front suspension enables larger, more powerful brakes without excessive wheel o�sets that would hurt steering feel• Non-isolated perimeter subframe replaces individual crossmembers, sti�ening the front structure while reducing mass• Aluminum rear knuckles reduce unsprung mass• Driver can adjust electric power-assisted steering e�ort individually or through Selectable Drive Modes

NOTEWORTHY

The geometry of the all-independent suspension has been tuned to provide twice as much anti-squat, anti-li� and anti-dive force at each axle. This helps keep Mustang’s body more level under hard acceleration or braking.
