PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Ford Motor Company just unleashed the most powerful Mustang in the model’s 55-year history. Ford did this by putting the most powerful street-legal engine in the company’s 117-year history into the 2020 Mustang Shelby GT500. With 760 horsepower and 625 lb-ft of torque, the Shelby GT500 can hit 60 mph in 3.3 seconds, clear the quarter mile in 10.7 seconds, and accelerate from 0 to 100, and then get back to 0 mph, in 10.6 seconds. These figures might suggest the new Shelby GT500 is all about straight-line performance.

It’s not.

In fact, rumors from Ford insiders suggest it will pull better road course lap times than some of today’s most capable supercars, including the all-new mid-engine Corvette. After several hours driving the new 2020 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500, on both public roads and around Las Vegas Motor Speedway’s 1.5-mile racetrack, we won’t dispute these claims. The GT500’s confidence and poise when driven aggressively on a closed course are fully matched, if not surpassed, by its refined – almost docile – personality on public roads. The full spectrum of the new GT500’s capabilities are truly impressive.

PRODUCT DISCRIPTION

The 2020 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 is powered by a new hand built, supercharged 5.2-liter V8. This engine features a 2.65-liter roots-type supercharger offering up to 12 psi of boost, as well as an air-to-liquid intercooler located in the V8’s engine valley. With a maximum of 760 hp and 625 lb-ft of torque the engine easily catapults the GT500 forward at nearly any RPM, despite the coupe’s 4,200-pound curb weight. Additional performance upgrades include a reinforced aluminum alloy block, longer head bolts and a baffle system in the oil pan to keep oil from draining away from the pickup tube during high lateral g situations.
Delivering that power to the rear wheels is an all-new Tremec 7-speed dual-clutch transmission – a first for the Ford Mustang, and for any American performance coupe. This is the only transmission available on the new Shelby GT500, but enthusiasts pining for a traditional 3-pedal manual take note: this is among the best transmissions we’ve ever experienced. Everything an engaged driver wants from a transmission, the Tremec delivers.
