Ford has confirmed UK pricing for the 2015 Mustang, marking the first time the iconic muscle car is officially available in right-hand drive for British buyers.

Engine Options and Performance
Buyers can choose between two engines. The entry-level 2.3-litre EcoBoost turbocharged four-cylinder produces 313hp and 434Nm of torque. For those seeking more traditional muscle car performance, the 5.0-litre V8 GT starts at £32,995 and delivers 412hp and 524Nm. Both engines in the UK Mustang offer more power and torque than their American counterparts, with the EcoBoost model in particular exceeding the US version’s figures of 305hp and 406Nm.
The Mustang’s performance credentials are further enhanced by its standard rear-wheel drive layout and a chassis setup designed to appeal to driving enthusiasts. The 5.0-litre V8 GT provides strong acceleration and a classic muscle car soundtrack, while the EcoBoost offers a balance of efficiency and performance for buyers looking for a more economical option without sacrificing power.
Pricing and Rivals
The Mustang’s UK price positions it directly against European coupes such as the Audi A5, BMW 4 Series, and Nissan 370Z. With a starting price of £28,995, the Mustang undercuts some of these rivals while offering higher power outputs. Ford’s pricing strategy aims to attract buyers who want the distinctive character of an American muscle car combined with competitive value and equipment levels.
For those interested in open-top motoring, the convertible body style is available for an additional £1,500 over the equivalent Fastback model. Choosing an automatic gearbox adds another £1,500 to the price, regardless of engine or body style. For example, a V8 GT Convertible with automatic transmission tops the range at £35,995.
Standard Equipment and Features
All UK Mustangs come with right-hand drive as standard, a significant milestone for British enthusiasts. The standard equipment list is generous, including:
- 19-inch alloy wheels
- Xenon headlights
- LED tail lights
- Performance brake package
- Rear diffuser
- Ford Sync2 infotainment system with 8-inch touchscreen
- Nine-speaker audio system
- Choice of ten exterior colours
These features ensure that even the base model is well equipped, offering technology and comfort that rivals established European competitors. The inclusion of a performance brake package and 19-inch alloys highlights the Mustang’s sporting intentions, while the infotainment system and multiple audio speakers cater to modern connectivity and entertainment needs.
Right-Hand Drive and UK Launch
The arrival of the 2015 Mustang in right-hand drive form is a direct result of Ford’s decision to offer the car globally in both left- and right-hand drive configurations. This move opens up the Mustang to new markets, including the UK, where American muscle cars have traditionally been a rare sight due to left-hand drive limitations.
Production for European deliveries is ramping up, and UK buyers can order both coupe and convertible versions from launch. The Mustang’s combination of right-hand drive, competitive pricing, and two distinct engine options positions it as a new challenger in the UK sports coupe segment. For British drivers who have long admired the Mustang from afar, the 2015 model represents a new opportunity to own an iconic piece of American automotive history, now tailored for UK roads.
