Ford already has a ten-speed automatic in its parts bin, which is currently used in the F-150 pick up truck in the US. It was developed in collaboration with General Motors where it will go into the 2017MY Camaro ZL1.

For its application in the 2018 Mustang, the unit will likely receive a different calibration to better suit the Mustang’s character and bring better efficiency to the muscle car.
