Just in time for Christmas Ford wanted to give a small but welcome gift to Mustang fans by sharing more information about the new seventh generation sports car. In particular, data on engines were disclosed, which were not shared at the time of the presentation of the new Mustang. Therefore, the American car manufacturer wanted to satisfy Mustang fans who wanted to know much more about this model before its planned market launch. next summer.
And we can only start from the very last Mustang Dark Horse who will have a more powerful version of the naturally aspirated 5-litre V8. Ford is keen to emphasize that this is the best V8 engine ever built for a Mustang. To move on to the fourth generation of its engine, Ford worked on several fronts. For example, a new camshaft was introduced, new pistons and forged connecting rods were used. The engine can stretch up to 7500 rpm. These and other activities have power of 500 hp (507 hp) with 566 Nm maximum torque in the Dark Horse version.
Unfortunately, Ford did not want to share performance data for a Mustang Dark Horse equipped with this engine. Given the numbers, the lucky ones who get to drive it will certainly get a chance to have some fun.
The home of the blue oval wasn’t just talking about the best version of their new Mustang. In fact, he also provided some information about other engines installed in his sports car. There Mustang GT there will be a version of the naturally aspirated V8 with a volume of 5 liters, capable of issuing 480 HP (487 hp) with a torque of 562 Nm. Power that can rise to 486 hp (493 hp) with a torque of 566 Nm when using a special exhaust system that can be ordered separately.
The new Mustang will also be offered with the new engine. 4-cylinder EcoBoost with a volume of 2.3 liters. able to deliver 315 HP (319 hp) with 474 Nm of torque. All engines will be paired with a 6-speed manual or 10-speed automatic.
V8 engines have a special valve-closing exhaust system that helps to limit the noise generated by vehicles, especially when driving in urban areas. Instead, a model with an EcoBoost engine can count on an exhaust system capable of amplifying the sound of a 4-cylinder engine. Unfortunately, there is still no information about the possible arrival of the new Mustang in Europe.
