Details of the new powerful «Mustang» have been revealed
Ford has shared the characteristics of the 2020 Mustang Shelby GT500. Under the hood will be a modernized 5.2-liter “eight”. The engine produces 770 horsepower and 847 Nm of torque.
If you look at the photo of the new engine and say that the same engine is installed on the “younger” Mustang GT350, then we take our hat off to your observation, but at the same time we have to disappoint you with the fact that there are a lot of differences between the engines. For example, the new engine has a Roots compressor. The cylinder head, valves, and crankshaft design have also changed.
It is curious that the acceleration time to a hundred is still kept secret, but Ford announced that the muscle car takes only 10.6 seconds to accelerate from zero to 100 miles per hour (about 161 km/h) and brake to a complete stop. By the way, in addition to the new engine, the GT500 will be equipped for the first time with a robotic transmission with two clutches and 420-mm front brake discs.
