Whenever it finally arrives, it will likely be the last of its kind. V8s are continually being eschewed in favor of more efficient and more powerful turbocharged V6 engines, and Ford has plenty of EcoBoost experience to make the smaller configuration as powerful as a traditional gas guzzler. For the final iteration of the V8-powered ‘Stang, expect hybrid assistance, more tech, better quality, and possibly even AWD. But with the proliferation of new EVs like the Mach-E, Explorer, and F-150 Lightning entering the market, Ford may yet have enough low-emissions vehicles to justify one last overpowered hurrah for the V8. We can only hope.
