The 2018 Ford Mustang's Pulsating Start Button Matches A Real Mustang's Heart Rate
Ford has revealed the new push button starter for the Mustang, which pulsates to the time of an actual Mustang's resting heart rate
Last week, we were looking at a Vilner-modified Ford Mustang which had actual Mustang leather on the inside, complete with hairy patches on the seats. It turns out Ford has given the 2018 Mustang a little nod to its horse-shaped namesake too, although you’ll be pleased to know it’s a little more tasteful that Vilner’s efforts.
It’s been given a Jaguar-style pulsating ‘heatbeat’ start button, which flicks on and off in time with the resting heart rate of a mustang horse - 30 beats per minute. Nice attention to detail, no?
The 2018 Mustang will be in showrooms in the USA this Autumn.

Meh real horses have 500++ horsepower… Ferrari is REAL horse here!
I thought it will be the heartbeats of the crowd I wipe out.
What’s next? A Mustang horse with a Ford Mustang engine sound that activates when it wakes up?
Oh Neptune.
Nice gimmick, just like the dynamic turn signals on new Audis. Nobody really needs it, but I like it.
Hmmmmmm, I could’ve sworn I’ve seen the exact same thing previously, but I wonder where that was

This is so gimmicky. If the product is good, it shouldn’t need things like this.
Didn’t JLR do this with their drive selector
wtf… why u giving attention and place on this site for nosense things like this one… this is bullshit.
Car manufacturers nowadays.
