PLYMOUTH TOWNSHIP, MICH. (August 2, 2018) — New 2019 model year ROUSH Stage 1 and Stage 2 Mustangs are available beginning today from ROUSH Performance. The releases continue Roush and Ford’s long-standing tradition to produce vehicles with the raw power, looks and legacy that passionate drivers crave.

“Together for over 20 years we’ve been designing and building high-performance ROUSH Mustangs engineered to thrill,” said Jack Roush Jr., advanced business strategist for ROUSH Performance.

Harnessing the power of Ford’s 2.3L EcoBoost® engine combined with Roush’s signature styling, the ROUSH Stage 1 Mustang fuses both form and function. The turbocharged 4-cylinder engine produces 310 horsepower and 350 lb-ft of torque, all in a lightweight package specially designed for the 2.3L’s increased power. A high-performance, stainless steel exhaust system increases air flow for an aggressive sound presence. ROUSH also offers additional aftermarket performance parts for the enthusiasts that want to get even more out of their Mustang.

The Stage 1 Mustang’s classic, racing-inspired design captures the Mustang’s timeless American appeal, while incorporating the latest in cutting-edge engineering. The ROUSH R8 aero package is designed with maximum airflow and downforce in mind. An enhanced high-flow upper grille features the signature “1” badge, while the widened lower grille encourages increased powertrain cooling.
