Mustang Ecoboost Convertible
The Ford Mustang EcoBoost Convertible represents the turbocharged four-cylinder open-air variant of the iconic pony car, featuring the 2.3-liter EcoBoost inline-four producing 315 horsepower at 5,500 rpm and 350 lb-ft torque at 3,000 rpm in current generation models (310-330 hp depending on variant and package). The EcoBoost architecture utilizes turbocharger, intercooler, DOHC 16-valve construction with aluminum block and head, and port plus direct fuel injection across 138 cubic inches (2,261 cc) displacement. Weighing 3,741 lbs with four seats and 13.3 cubic feet trunk space, the EcoBoost Convertible achieves 24 mpg combined (21 city/29 highway) with 380-mile total range, balancing performance and efficiency.
The optional High Performance Package increases output to 330 hp through larger turbocharger and upgraded cooling. Transmission choices include six-speed manual or ten-speed automatic, with the automatic delivering approximately 4.5-second 0-60 mph times. The power-retractable soft top mechanism operates at speeds up to specific threshold, enabling open-air driving with classic Mustang styling. The EcoBoost Convertible offers accessible Mustang ownership with turbocharged efficiency, lower weight than V8 variants improving handling balance, and genuine performance credentials. The combination of iconic convertible styling, modern turbocharged power, available Performance Package, and reasonable running costs makes the EcoBoost Convertible compelling choice for enthusiasts seeking open-air pony car experience without V8 fuel consumption.
