2021 Ford Mustang GT Convertible Review: Top-dropping American Muscle

我说,2021年的福特野马GTs one of the most enjoyable soft-top sports cars in the USA would not be an exaggeration, and not just because there are few things more American than a Mustang. Along the same vein, it is powered by a raucous naturally aspirated V8 gas engine that throws out a hefty 460 horsepower ad 420 lb-ft of torque. This makes the GT Convertible exceptionally fun to drive, even with the handling drawbacks that come with being a drop-top. Locally, the 2021 Mustang GT Convertible goes up against theChevrolet Camaro Convertible, while pricier European convertible sports cars ask for a lot more money. This is one of the reasons it's so popular, but is this well-earned or just a matter of convenience? A closer look should reveal all.

2021 Ford Mustang GT Convertible Changes:What’s The Difference vs The 2020 Mustang GT Convertible?

For the 2021 model year, the Mustang GT Convertible shuffles the standard and available features. It's still the same vehicle underneath, but you can dress it up in new colors or option on one of two new wheel designs. It is now possible to delete the rear seats entirely to open up some extra space, but the illuminated glovebox has been removed from the options list. The most appreciated update to the sixth-gen Mustang is that Ford Co-Pilot 360 is standard on all models, including features like blind-spot monitoring and lane-keep assist.

Pros and Cons

  • Powerful NA V8 engine
  • Classic muscle car styling
  • Comfortable ride quality
  • Handles well for a drop-top
  • Practical enough to be a daily
  • Fuel economy is a joke
  • Not as engaging as the coupe
  • Cramped rear seats

Engine and Transmission

提供的力量激励这巨额的巡洋舰is a 5.0-liter V8 that develops an impressive 460 hp and 420 lb-ft. These outputs are sent to the rear-wheel drivetrain by either a six-speed manual gearbox or a 10-speed automatic, depending on which you choose. Naturally, there is no turbo lag here, so acceleration is immediate and gratifying. The only qualm we could find is that the automatic transmission sometimes shifts up too early, leaving you wanting a little more oomph at times. Nevertheless, the Ford convertible offers admirable performance and can sprint from 0-60 mph in the mid-four-second range.

Verdict:Is the 2021 Ford Mustang GT Convertible A Good car?

There aren't a lot of sports cars out there that offer a good balance of power, handling, and practicality, especially not at a reasonable price, which is what makes the Mustang GT Convertible such an appealing oddity. Sitting at the top of the range, it has the most power on tap, but it also gets access to the most premium features. This helps it go toe to toe with more premium rivals. It doesn't hurt that it has a usable amount of trunk space, either. In terms of a safety rating, there is no review of the 2021 Ford Mustang GT Convertible by either the NHTSA or IIHS. The base Mustang scored a perfect five-star rating, and the addition of more safety tech with the Ford Co-Pilot 360 suite should help make the convertible comparable. The model line also has a good reputation for reliability.

There may be more capable 2-door sports convertibles out there, especially abroad, but the Ford Mustang is undeniably enjoyable. It's also affordable, exudes classic American muscle machismo, and speaks to a sense of national pride. It would be difficult to find something to hate about it so why try? Take one for a spin and we're sure you will agree.

What Ford Mustang GT Convertible Model Should I Buy?

You only get one model to choose from, so what it comes down to is how you spec it. This is already a sexy car, so an eye-catching color like Rapid Red or Velocity Blue can make it pop. However, Velocity Blue paired with the Black Accent Package can be just as alluring if more understated. The Ford Safe and Smart Package is a must for those long cruises down the coast, since it adds adaptive cruise control and voice commands, so you can really just sit back and enjoy the ride. If you want your GT to have a bit more of an edge, you could option on the Performance Package, but at $6,500, we feel it is not really worth it. If you are you happy with our suggestions, you can expect the price of your 2021 Ford Mustang GT Convertible to come in at around $48,700 with destination included. You could spoil yourself further by adding the 401A package for the larger digital instrument cluster and heated steering wheel, if you don't mind tipping the price over $50k.
