Ford Mustang: Engine Performance | Sports Cars & Convertibles | Ford PH
Get your daily dose of adrenaline.
Performance is at the heart of every Mustang ever built. The unique thrill of opening up on that straight line.
The quick and responsive downshift. Tight cornering through a curve on a winding road.
Not to mention the legendary power under the hood and that throaty growl that comes with it. You’ll get it all and more with the new Mustang.
There are no wrong choices here.
2.3L EcoBoost®
2.3L EcoBoost®
The new 2.3L EcoBoost engine continues to show up and perform. This iteration of the proven engine boasts even more torque. The extra bump in the EcoBoost is all thanks to the transient overboost function, which lifts outputs on every gear change. So you can focus on the rush you get as you step on the gas.
5.0L GT
5.0L GT
The 5.0L Mustang V8: a legendary engine revamped to get you maximum power. How did we make that happen? By adding a new dual-fuel injection. Which not only translates to more horsepower but also higher-rpm power. Sounds like a win-win to us.
10-Speed Automatic Transmission
The new 10-speed SelectShift® automatic transmission is the best automatic in any Mustang ever. The 10-speed architecture, featuring Ford-patented technology, is designed for optimum ratio progression and efficiency. It also provides more accurate, quicker upshift and downshift capability. And if you’re someone who likes ultimate control, steering wheel-mounted shift paddles are included as well.
Dual Exhaust and Active Valve Performance Exhaust
Put those beautiful dual exhausts with quad tips to work with the brand-new active valve performance exhaust. This is a fully variable exhaust system, which means you can control the volume of your Mustang’s rumble.
MagneRide® Damping System
Performance runs in our family. So it’s no wonder we borrowed the MagneRide Damping System you’ll find in the Shelby GT350®, improved upon it and tuned it specifically for the New Mustang. This system provides lightning-quick responsiveness to changing road conditions. How quick? We’re talking 1,000 times per second. That’s how fast each damper adjusts automatically, and it’s the reason you can count on optimum handling performance.

Selectable Drive Modes
This is the ultimate in control when it comes to customizing your Mustang driving experience. Five drive modes – Normal, Snow/Wet, Sport, Track or Drag Strip mode – let you dial in the dynamics you want. Handling and response times are adjusted based on your selection. All you have to do is flip the toggle switch on the center stack to get what you want.
