Ford is starting to work on a new rear-wheel drive platform due to be featured on the next-generation Mustang and several saloons.
Company’s executives have given the green light to the new platform which will underspin several models such as the next-generation Mustang and the Australian Ford Falcon. The future platform will be for Ford what the Zeta platform is for GM, a global platform designed to cut costs.
Initially being developed in Australia the program has been transferred to the US due to the weak dollar.
