NASCAR 21: Ignition has received an update which allows players to test out the next gen Ford Mustang.
Motorsport Games' roadmap for NASCAR 21: Ignition earlier this year didn't bring much good news for those hoping for a major overhaul of the title, but some interesting news teased in that roadmap was the forthcoming addition of a next gen NASCAR vehicle. That next gen car has now been released.

The full changelog for version 1.4.5.0 is as follows:
