The Ford Mustang Mach-E Handily Outsold The Gas Mustang In 2024Good observation. Appears Chevy dropped 4-cylinder turbo for 2024, making the V6 the base engine. Prior to 2024 they had 3 very distinct engine choices; the 2.0L turbo, 3.6L NA DOHC V6, and 6.2L pushrod V8. Interesting enough EPA shows the V6 as only choice that burns regular gas, so fuel cost is significantly lower than 4-cylinder turbo. The V6 was also more powerful and accelerated faster, though torque rating was slightly lower. I don't see why many would buy the 4-cylinder turbo over V6 given those conditions, which likely explains turbo 4 getting dropped.
As to V8, yeah it's really fast but more expensive to buy and a gas guzzler by comparison to V6; plus requires premium fuel making it even more expensive to operate. Test data showed V6 could hit 60 in 5 seconds, so agree many buyers likely felt that was more than enough power. Just pointing out that many buyers sometimes do see a middle ground when it makes sense because it offers practical value.Sun, 19 Jan 2025 14:17:41 +0000
