Choosing Between Mustang GT and EcoBoost in 2025
Comparing the 2025 Mustang GT vs EcoBoost
Choosing between the 2025 Mustang GT and EcoBoost comes down to how you prioritize horsepower, efficiency, and driving personality. At Lewis Ford of Hays in Hays, KS we help drivers decide which Mustang powertrain better matches their performance goals and lifestyle.
Performance Feel & Driving Character
The Mustang GT delivers classic V8 muscle with traditional exhaust sound, stronger acceleration, and a more aggressive driving character. The EcoBoost provides turbocharged torque with lighter front-end dynamics, offering quicker response in corners and better fuel efficiency. Both feature selectable drive modes that adjust steering, throttle, and transmission behavior to match relaxed cruising or spirited driving moods.
Cost, Comfort, & Daily Drivability
The EcoBoost trim can be the smarter choice for drivers wanting Mustang style at lower cost and higher mpg, while the GT appeals to those who want full power and authentic muscle car sound. Interior technology, seating comfort, and available safety features are similar across both, allowing buyers to choose performance first without losing convenience or modern cabin tech. Insurance premiums, fuel costs, and long-term usability are also part of the decision.
