December 31st, 1969 Ford's latest teaser photo is of the 2010 Mustang 'Power Dome' hood as they refer to it. The photo does not reveal much but you can tell it has been raised a bit to accomadate what Ford refers to as powerful engines. Does this mean there will be an increase in horsepower for the 2010 Mustang, probably so but to what extent is still unknown. Check out Ford's description of the hood and a high-res photo after the jump... Ford's Words: Mustang enthusiasts always have loved the power of America’s favorite muscle car. A glance at the hood showcases the power waiting to be unleashed as the potent nature of the 2010 Mustang is amplified by aggressive sculptural surfacing on the all-new hood. “The strong powerdome punches outward from the hood surface, further emphasizing the powerful engines underneath,” said Design Manager George Saridakis. “It’s practically bursting through the surface.” The2010 Mustang indeed is ready to charge forward. But with that brute strength are touches of beauty and style as well. “The subtle surface changes on the fender edge make for a more dynamic design,” said Chief Designer Douglas Gaffka. “The softer, blended-in surfacing of the wheel arch creates a much-more flowing look, giving the car an appearance of a wider stance,” added Saridakis. All the better for 2010 Mustang drivers to leap off the line. “The 2010 Mustang is all about crafting a world-class car,” said Senior Designer Robert Gelardi. “Everywhere you look, exterior and interior, there’s attention to detail in design, engineering and manufacturing befitting this American icon.”
