The Next-Gen Ford Mustang Is Just Over Two Years Away: Job Listing
The Next-Gen Ford Mustang Is Just Over Two Years Away: Job Listing-July 2024

A job listing for the Ford Motor Company on LinkedIn, the worst social media platform, seemingly reveals the next-generation will debut in 2022 for the 2023 model year.

My first thought, as a hater troll, is of course “Isn’t the electric crossover supposed to be the next best thing in Mustang????” And the answer is, to my great relief, “no, you idiot.” We will seemingly get a real next-gen pony car according to a job listing caught by the forums.

The listing claims job candidates are vying for a position on the company’s “proud team” to sign off on the “Ford 2023 Mustang S650,” suggesting “S650” may be the internal code for the next-gen muscle car.

Further down, more of the listing seems to confirm it’s talking about a new Mustang, via :

The current-generation Mustang’s internal code is S550, and the next-generation’s code is believed to be S650. If the job posting is accurate, that means the next Mustang would launch as a 2023 model. Further down the listing, one of the job’s “responsibilities” is “on-site launch lead for Wind/Road Noise and Air Leakage attributes when S650 launches in 2022 as a 2023MY.” That seems to at least confirm the first mention isn’t a typo.

You can currently access the job listing on LinkedIn .

So, it would appear the next Mustang is coming in 2022, seven years after the sixth-generation was introduced back in 2015, with a minor, controversial redesign in 2018. One wonders if it will have anything to do with the Mach-E.
