In order to modernize the new Mustang’s interior, the F150’s parts bin was raided. The all-new circular vents that are flush-mounted in the F150’s dash protrude from the Mustang’s board, as well, and can be highlighted with available chrome bezel rings. The in-dash CD player and display is the same unit used in all F150s, except the Lariat version and the three manual HVAC control knobs below the audio center are also replicas from the truck. (This layout is a departure from that of the former version, which placed these knobs above the stereo.) Some Ford F150s arrive with a center console attached to the dashboard, and it is from this element that the Mustang’s console is based. Upright, square-arched “eyebrows” on both sides of the center stack help the direction of the design progress from vertical to horizontal. On the door panels, the inside levers are now mounted at the top, also emulating the placement and look of those in the F150, and no longer contribute to a mass of confusing space. Either a short-throw five-speed shifter or a T-handled automatic lever is positioned at the front of the console, a cue true to classic Pony cars. Choice of materials and Standard equipment
Base Mustangs feature supportive cloth seats with horizontal ribbing that references the 60s. Leather surfacing and six-way power adjustment is optional. Choose a GT model, however, and a Color Accent Package that includes red leather seating surfaces, red door inserts, and red floor mats becomes available. An overhead console provides storage, as does the space between the front seats. Two cup holders and two power outlets are standard.
