It will be Ford’s fourth different Monster Energy Series model since the modern era began in 1972 — the Mustang will follow the Thunderbird, Taurus and Fusion, the current model.
The move follows similar decisions from fellow manufacturers Toyota and Chevrolet, which changed their body styles significantly over the past two years. Chevrolet introduced the Camaro ZL1 into the Monster Energy Series this year.
Ford has used the Mustang in the NASCAR Xfinity Series since 2011.
