Without even looking at the spec sheet you can pretty much safely assume that the 2016 Ford Mustang is a powerful vehicle that offers a unique and thrilling driving experience. But have you ever wondered what engines are available in the 2016 Mustang? You can find everything from an I-4 to a V8. Take a look at what each engine in the Mustang offers!
V6 Engine in the 2016 Ford Mustang
The standard engine in the base 2016 Ford Mustang is a highly capable 3.7L V6, which puts out some pretty impressive stats at 300 horsepower and 280 lb-ft of torque. The V6 engine comes with a 6-speed manual transmission, but you can also upgrade to a automatic with paddle shifters, if you’re comfortable with that.

2016 Ford Mustang with an I-4 engine
It might seem strange to some people to put a four-cylinder engine in a sports car, but Ford specially made this engine to get an incredibly amount of power for its size. The 2.3L EcoBoost offers 310 horsepower and 320 lb-ft of torque. Not only can the I-4 boast about its power, but it’s also surprisingly efficient — giving its driver up to 32 MPG on the highway. There’s really no downside to the I-4 in the Mustang, which also comes standard with a 6-speed manual transmission, but does have an automatic available.
