You may not be able to get your hands on the new 2015 Mustang until late next year, but that doesn’t mean you can’t test drive one right now. Virtually, that is. Today Ford announced that the sixth generation Mustang is available as a free download in the Need for Speed Rivals video game, out now. The 2015 Mustang will come with five different liveries and uses real audio from the 5.0L V8.
“We worked closely with the development team at EA to provide them with engineering data for the new Mustang, several months before we showed it to the rest of the world,” said Mark Bentley, Ford product licensing manager. “Computer design models enabled the game developers to create an accurate representation of the new Mustang before it goes on sale.”
The Shelby GT500 “hero car” from the upcoming Need for Speed movie has also been available to drive in the game since it launched in November. Players can also drive the 2014 Mustang GT and 2014 Shelby GT500, which is available as a police chase vehicle.
