The next second, the 2020 Ford Mustang Hybrid enters the scene with an alternate grille and headlights. The two 'Stangs probably won't share anything for all intents and purpose aside from the horse in advance, however then again, the V8 motor and whatever remains of the vehicle are lit in Tron-esque neon blue, the mark shading for charged Ford models.
And thus, the plot thickens. Will the Ford Motor Company go with forced induction and fewer cylinder or natural aspiration and all-American V8 with a cross-plane crankshaft? On the other hand, there’s also talk of an electrified front axle, translating to all-wheel drive when the engine and motor work their magic at the same time.

Another theory is that the electric motor is located between the engine and 10-speed automatic transmission, sending the goodies exclusively to the rear wheels. While there are people who claim that plug-in hybrid technology is possible, Ford isn’t likely to tread down this path because plug-in equals more weight that hybrid.

According to another guesstimate, the 2020 Mustang Hybrid might deliver 400 horsepower and 400 pound-feet of torque if the Ford Motor Company decides to use the 2.3-liter EcoBoost as the internal combustion engine. To be honest, this type of powertrain would suit the Mustang like a hand in glove, acting as the mid-range option between the EcoBoost four-cylinder without hybrid assistance and Coyote V8.
In related news, the Mustang Shelby GT500 will put an end to the S550 lineage with more than 700 horsepower from the 5.2-liter supercharged V8 codenamed Predator. Come 2021, the Mustang will transition to the CD6 platform, which will debut next year on the 2020 Ford Explorer and 2020 Ford Police Interceptor Utility.

Speaking of the next-generation Police Interceptor Utility, the 3.3-liter Ti-VCT with hybrid assistance and all-wheel drive come as standard according to a leaked specifications document. The 3.0-liter EcoBoost V6 serves as an optional extra.
