Mustang prices go up across the board for 2021. But, with the inclusion of some new features as standard, are the price increases warranted?
Increases Across the Range
Anyone who's been thinking of buying a new Mustang in 2021 might be a bit perturbed to find out that prices have gone up across the board. On average, the price of a Mustang has gone up by $374.29. This price hike isn't totally unwarranted, however, as Ford is making some new features standard across the range.

This package includes the following: Auto high-beam headlamps, and BLIS (Blind Spot Information System). Co-Pilot360 will also feature a lane-keeping system, which includes lane-keeping assist, lane-keeping alert, and driver alert.
