Canada’s performance car market is driven (pun intended) by two of North America’s most iconic brands – Ford and Chevrolet. Their respective entries to the sports car world, the Mustang and Camaro, have long been examples of searing performance, unrivaled body quality, and for 2019, all the tech capacity that you might expect in SUVs or sedans. It’s because of this that neither the Mustang nor Camaro are bad choices if you need some excitement in your life, but today we want to help you decide between the two.

Come in below with Sherwood Ford as we show you in greater detail how the 2019 Mustang and Camaro models match up with one another. Knowledge is power when you’re looking for a new, quality vehicle, and it’s on its way today!

Test drive a new 2019 Ford Mustang at Sherwood Ford in Edmonton AB

With greater off-the-line power and torque than the Camaro, as well as a transmission that offers two more available gears (and better throttle response as well), there’s no denying the Mustang’s viability in the Canadian performance market. Plus, with up to 36 imperial highway miles per gallon, leather seating (also heated, a welcome addition for Alberta winters), and an in-vehicle Wi-Fi hotspot, the Mustang is more innovative and comfortable than its Chevrolet counterpart in just about every manner. That’s not even mentioning the Ford Safe and Smart Package, which makes its way into the Mustang and creates a drive that’s safer than any other sports car out there. It features the following:

Lane-Keeping Alert
Adaptive Cruise Control
Blind Spot Information System with Cross-Traffic Alert
Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking

The Mustang is always a hot sell here at Sherwood Ford, so contact us today to schedule a test drive of its new 2019 model. You’ll find the hair-raising, adrenaline-pumping drive too good to pass up, we promise!
