Could the Ford sports car sculpture from Beijing be the next Mustang?

The Ford booth at the Auto China show has this sculpture of a sports car on display. The low-riding fastback sports a short front overhang, a dome-like top and a stretched hood. The radiator grille is octagonal, and the overall impression is that of a lightning-fast car. But what car, specifically?

The prevailing opinion seems to be that this is the next-gen Mustang (see video). However, Ford representatives claim that it is actually a design study based on a new philosophy called Progressive Energy In Strength. Apparently, the new style mixes boldness of approach with Chinese aesthetics.

Ford will be opening a new design center in China next month, where it will be designing new models specifically for that market.
