Also, not letting the Mustang nameplate fall into obscurity is smart. Sales will only continue to slide for the Mustang, and no hybrid or electric versions will save it. Taking advantage of the brand recognition is wise and people will eventually forget that the Mustang was ever just a RWD 2-door sports car.
I guess it is more a question of how many more nameplates will land with Mustang badging, and for how long. Does Ford eventually make Mustang a performance trim level?
Anyway, I'm going to lawl when the first videos of the Mach-e GT start going around showing it beating up on GT350s, and GT500s that can't get traction.

If they couldn't convince the public that a FWD sports car was a Mustang when FWD was the hot new thing they are going to have a rough time with an electric crossover!
Personally I have no love of the Mustang name so don't care but still don't see it going over well.
