Mustang to be launched as a seperate car brand?
The British press are saying that the next generation Mustang will be separated of the Ford car brand. Mustang will continue on its own..
Ford will launch the new Mustang in 2011. The Americans seem to want to give the new model a separate status, in which the name Mustang will be a new brand name, just like BMW did with Mini and Chevrolet did with Corvette. That means that the new model Mustang will have a whole bunch of other versions of that model. Ofcourse, there already are the coupe and the convertible, but rumours say that there will be a four-door saloon and a stationwagon or a shooting brake.
Ford would like Mustang to be a separate brand because of the massive success of the current model. The new brand will be firstly introduced in America and Australia but exporting to Europe hasn't been excluded.
