The Ford Mustang and Dodge Demon are two of America’s most iconic muscle cars. The Mustang has been around for over 50 years, while the Demon recently hit the market. So which one is better? Let’s take a look at their specs to find out!
Design & Style
• Exterior Design
The 2023 Ford Mustang and the 2023 Dodge Demon are very different cars offering unique takes on the muscle car aesthetic. The Dodge has a sinister look to match its high-power numbers, while the Mustang is more subtle about its performance capabilities.
Both vehicles have long hoods and large grilles, but other than that, they couldn’t be more different in terms of design language. The Ford has round headlights and fog lights in each corner; meanwhile, the Demon has quad rectangular lights up front with wide air intakes flanking them on either side (and even wider ones along both sides).
In back are huge rear fenders that house enormous tires-the biggest available for those models-and round tailpipes sticking out from under huge rear diffusers made up of four vertical planes instead of one large flat panel as we see on most modern cars today.
• Interior Design
You’ll find some of the most dramatic differences between these two vehicles. The Ford Mustang has a stylish interior with plenty of space and features that make it feel like home, while the Dodge Demon’s interiors are somewhat spartan.
The 2023 Ford Mustang seats five people, including heated seats and leather upholstery options. There are also additional storage compartments throughout the cabin for storing your belongings on the go.
On top of all that, there’s even an optional wireless charging pad built into one side panel!
Technology & Safety
The 2023 Ford Mustang and the 2023 Dodge Demon have safety features such as blind spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and adaptive cruise control.
The 2023 Ford Mustang has a built-in Wi-Fi hotspot connecting up to 10 devices simultaneously and includes 4G LTE connectivity. You can also use Apple CarPlay or Android Auto on your dash screen for navigation, music streaming, and more!
The 2023 Dodge Demon doesn’t have any additional safety technology beyond what’s already included with its base model; however, it does come standard with traction control and stability control systems-two, things that aren’t included in any other vehicle on the market today!
Performance
The Mustang is a classic musclecar with a naturally aspirated V4 engine that puts out 310 horsepower and 350 lb-ft of torque and a manual transmission. The Demon has an all-aluminum supercharged V6 making 797 hp and 945 lb-ft of torque and an automatic gearbox with paddle shifters for manual control if you want it.
The two cars are also tuned differently; the Ford is designed more for comfort than outright speed, while the Dodge is focused on going from 0 to 60 mph in 2 seconds flat.
The Bottom Line
The bottom line is that the new Ford Mustang is better than the Dodge Demon. The Mustang has more room, seats, and cargo space than any other pony car. It also has a better safety rating and comes standard with a 6-speed transmission (which will make it quicker).
