Ford Mustang Ground Clearance by Year

The Ford Mustang’s ground clearance is listed as 5-6 inches across the catalog years 1999-2022. This range gives a general reference for the vehicle, rather than a single measurement that applies to every Mustang. Ground clearance is the space between the lowest part of the vehicle and the road, so it can matter when approaching steep driveways, uneven pavement, or obstacles.

Read the listed range as a span, not as a guarantee for each year or trim. The available facts do not identify which clearance belongs to a particular model year, engine, or configuration, or explain what accounts for the variation. They also do not specify a measurement method or vehicle load. For the exact figure for a specific Mustang, check the door jamb or the owner’s manual.

Stored ground clearance by year. Missing years have no clearance figure in this extract.

The largest stored change occurs between 2012 and 2013, when ground clearance increases.
