Join us watching online for the live show starts at 8 p.m.

“As we kick off the next chapter of the Mustang story, this is also going to be the first opportunity many have had to experience F-150 Lightning and the Bronco Heritage,” said Suzy Deering, global chief marketing officer, Ford Motor Company. “The return of the Detroit Auto Show is a great opportunity to interact with our customers and give them the opportunity to experience Ford's incredible new vehicle lineup."
