The 2018 5.0L Mustang is the latest in a long line of legendary V8s. Can’t hurt that it’s faster and more powerful than any of the 5.0L engines to come before it, thanks to a new port fuel and direct injection. We’re talking 460 horses and 420 lb.-ft. of torque.
The new optional 10-speed SelectShift automatic transmission changes the game. An all-new electronic control system in the transmission features real-time adaptive shift-scheduling algorithms engineered to help ensure the right gear at the right time, including skip-shift and direct downshift capability. That translates into optimum ratio progression and efficiency, smoother shifting and better performance across the board.
The Shelby GT350 makes short work of any asphalt that lies before it. Consider what the 5.2L V8 engine with a flat-plane crank can do on a straightaway. Or how those serpentine S-turns seem tame when the magnetic suspension starts adjusting itself thousands of times per second. Brembo™ brakes. Track Apps. 529 hp and 429 lb.-ft. of torque. Imagine the roads you could conquer behind the wheel of one.
Optional on the EcoBoost® Premium and GT Premium, this 12-inch all-digital LCD cluster makes it possible for you to customize your gauge layout with three different views – Normal, Sport or Track mode. And to take that personalization even further, you can use MyColor to tweak the color of those gauges to your perfect shade.
