The dealers, who were shown a prototype of the four-door Mustang, noted that the car was inspired by the Porsche Panamera in many ways.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Mustang has been a two-door sports coupe since it first hit the roads in 1964, but now, according to a report by <a href=\"https:\/\/fordauthority.com\/2026\/08\/four-door-ford-mustang-takes-cues-from-porsche-panamera-say-dealers\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Ford Authority<\/a>, things are about to change. At the meeting, Ford showed the dealers an early prototype of the four-door Mustang on stage during the event, offering them an idea of what could arrive at their dealerships in a few years.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some of the people present at the meeting said that the size of the four-door Mustang was very similar to the Porsche Panamera. The vehicle\u2019s design also reportedly matched the Panamera in some respects. Is Ford taking design inspiration from Porsche? <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ford did not reveal what the four-door Mustang would be called, but based on information from an earlier dealer meeting, the vehicle has reportedly been referred to as the Mach 4. In February 2025, Ford filed a trademark for the same term, though it has not been confirmed as the production name.<\/p>\n<p><img data-od-added-loading=\"\" data-od-removed-fetchpriority=\"high\" data-od-replaced- data-od-xpath=\"\/HTML\/DIV\/*[2][self::DIV]\/*[1][self::DIV]\/*[1][self::DIV]\/*[1][self::DIV]\/*[4][self::DIV]\/*[5][self::FIGURE]\/*[1][self::IMG]\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\"  src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/2024_FORD_MUSTANG_COUPE_08-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Ford Mustang\" class=\"wp-image-1871432\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ford told dealers that the new Mustang will accelerate from a standstill to 60 mph in under four seconds, is expected to start at under $40,000, and will offer more rear-seat space than the Panamera.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, it will take a while before the four-door Mustang hits the road since the report states the vehicle won\u2019t enter production until at least 2028.<\/p>\n<p>Small SUV Worth $25,000<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dealers were also notified about a small SUV that will be offered at a starting price of $25,000. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.roadandtrack.com\/news\/a73392845\/ford-4-door-mustang-and-25000-dollar-suv-report\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Road &amp; Track<\/a> reported that dealers saw \u201cmock-ups\u201d of a compact SUV priced competitively. It will be available in gas and hybrid forms and will go on sale in 2029.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Photos of the prototype showed a wide and boxy design of the vehicle, and one person reported it looking like the first-generation Ford Escape. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, the design has not been approved for production, and neither has the vehicle been assigned a name yet, so it would be too early to confirm its arrival. Ford didn\u2019t disclose the vehicle\u2019s dimensions, but it may be similar in size to the EcoSport or Escape.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Reports about the Ford Mustang receiving two additional doors have been doing the rounds, and now, a meeting&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":70423,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[21181],"tags":[25916,31557,8406],"class_list":["post-70422","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-porsche","tag-ford","tag-ford-mustang","tag-porsche"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/70422","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=70422"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/70422\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/70423"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=70422"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=70422"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=70422"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
