2018 Ford Mustang EcoBoost Premium – Everything You Need to Know

We’ve already reviewed the 2018 Ford Mustang GT Premium. Now, let’s look at the detailed review of 2018 Ford Mustang EcoBoost Premium. Gone are the days when buying a GT model was considered as a “big thing.” The 2018 Ford Mustang EcoBoost Premium model produces 310 hp. Do you know what that means? The EcoBoost Premium model can achieve 60mph in about 5 seconds and cover a quarter mile in about 14-15 seconds at 100mph. And, the best thing is that all this can be achieved using a turbo powered 2.3-liter I4 engine. The 2018 Ford Mustang EcoBoost Premium costs a little over $31,000 CAD.

Some of the striking features of the EcoBoost Premium model are active noise cancellation, automatic LED headlights, a steering wheel covered with leather, auto-ignition, a rearview camera, an audio system with 6 speakers, heated and cooled front seats, the brand-new Sync 3 infotainment system with a high-quality 8-inch touchscreen, and dual-zone automatic climate control.

Overall, the EcoBoost Premium model is more fun to drive, smarter performer, and better balanced than ever before.

2018 Ford Mustang EcoBoost Premium – Design and style

There are very few differences between the exteriors of the EcoBoost Premium and GT Premium model. The front face of the car comes with a modified grille and an aggressive appearance. The rear diffuser is more stylish and the Premium variant features exhaust ports that are quad-tipped. The overall height of the EcoBoost Premium model’s nose has also been cut.

The seats are covered in high-quality leather and come with in-built dual-mode climatic controls. The interiors also contain a 12-inches LCD Digital Instrument Cluster. Mounted controls on the steering wheel allow you to access controls such as tire pressure reading, fuel economy check, etc. The interiors are cleaner and are made of better-quality materials. The 2018 Ford Mustang EcoBoost Premium scores 8 out of 10 on our design and style scale.

Safety features that come with the EcoBoost Premium model are side and front curtains, airbags mounted on the seats, LED headlights, a rearview camera, and a special airbag to guard the driver’s knee during sudden impact.

2018 Ford Mustang EcoBoost Premium – Performance

As already mentioned below, the EcoBoost Premium can achieve 60 mph in almost 5 seconds. Even though the 6-speed transmission is available for the traditional drivers, our tester was equipped with the all-new 10-speed automatic transmission. Moreover, the EcoBoost Premium comes with the EcoBoost Performance Package that includes bigger brake rotors with 4-piston fitted calipers, 3.5 TORSEN limited-slip rear end, a unique chassis tuning, high quality front springs, a massive radiator, and an enhanced rear sway bar. On the performance scale, this four-cylinder packs a punch.

When it comes to the overall weight, EcoBoost Premium is almost 200 lbs. lighter than the GT model. The steering provides great control, the brakes work wonderfully, and the car functions best in the Sports mode. Some GT features such as lap time recording apps, zero-to-60 run tracking app, line-lock, etc., can also be found in the EcoBoost Premium model.

2018 Ford Mustang EcoBoost Premium – Comfort and space
The leather-covered seats are well-bolstered and comfortable. The front seats are spacious and come with ample legroom. But, the lack of storage space in the cabin and the snug trunk negatively impact the front-seat comfort. Rear seating for adults is a bit tight; however, it is good to go for younger kids. Even though the rear seats are supportive, the problem areas are the headroom and legroom, as well as the egress, and ingress. The rear legroom is around 29 inches.

2018 Ford Mustang EcoBoost Premium – Fuel economy
When it comes to fuel economy, the EcoBoost Premium variant returns 32 mpg highway, 21 city, and 25 combined. The 2.3-liter turbo-4 and 10-speed transmission make it fuel efficient.
