The Ford Mustang emerged in April 1964 as a sporty, youthful car based on the Ford Falcon compact car’s low-cost mechanicals. The Mustang was an instant hit, inspiring a whole class of “pony car” rivals, including the 1967 Chevrolet Camaro and the 1970 Dodge Challenger. The Ford Mustang was everything in 1969, from a stylish six-cylinder coupe to a high-powered Boss 429 convertible with a NASCAR-ready V-8 engine stuffed underneath its scoop hood. The Mustang’s ongoing success can be attributed to its capacity to be whatever you want it to be.
Like other luxury and supercars, it’s also available easily in Dubai. In fact, you can also find Mustang for rent in Dubai at leading car rental agencies. Due to its exhilarating features, it always stays high in demand.
Here are some of the latest Mustang models that have impressed one and all:
Mustang Shelby GT500:
The all-new Shelby GT500 is based on the latest-generation Mustang and is the most powerful production Shelby model ever manufactured. It also has the fastest acceleration and greatest horsepower figure on a street-legal Ford Mustang with factory components. In addition, the new GT500 is equipped with the fastest-shifting transmission ever available on a Mustang.
The hand-built 5.2-litre aluminium alloy V8 engine behind that long sculpted hood is modelled on the Shelby GT350’s Voodoo engine, but the flat-plane crankshaft has been substituted with a more typical cross-plane layout. A gigantic 2.65-litre roots-types supercharger with an air-to-liquid intercooler is responsible for the 760 horsepower and 625 lb-ft. of torque.
For enhanced response and low-down torque, both the supercharger and the intercooler are neatly incorporated into the V of the engine.
Normal, weather, sport, drag, track driving modes, a line-lock feature and launch control are all available through selected Track Apps in Ford’s UConnect infotainment system, as one would expect from a sports car of this level.
Bullitt:
The exterior paint hue of the Bullitt Mustang could be clearly distinguished from the GT and EcoBoost models. Customers could only pick between two colours: green or black.
The Mustang badge is replaced by the Bullitt logo and is not visible outside or inside the Bullitt.
The Bullitt’s cabin is comparable to the Mustang’s previous models, except for a cue ball shifter and an aluminium bezel. Recaro seats are an option for users.
The 12-inch touchscreen controls the car’s driving modes, steering, stability, and exhaust sound. Users can not only choose from a variety of driving modes but also create their own. Users might, for example, choose to start the automobile in a quiet model because the exhaust may get somewhat noisy.
Overall, $61.000 appears to be a fair price for what the Bullitt has to offer.
Ford Mustang:
The pony car genre was created by the legendary Ford Mustang.
The classic styling harkens back to the original 1964 Mustang. The car’s stylish design included three vertical taillights, a fastback form, and a tall hood. The car’s front end didn’t have the original model’s circular headlights, but the designers did a much better job than that. The silver galloping horse, which harkens back to the car’s beginnings, matched the flat hexagonal grille.
Ford fitted a SYNC 3 infotainment system for the driver, which could be synced with a smartphone. It comes with three engine options: a turbocharged 4-cylinder, a 3.7-litre V6, and a 5.0-litre V8. In Europe, the four-pot and the V8 are available, but the V6 is not.
Mustang Shelby GT350R
The 2017 Mustang primarily comes with a four-wheel independent suspension, which enhances cornering performance over previous Mustangs that relied on a live axle to move the vehicle.
The Mustang has several high-performance models, but this one stands out, with noticeable aerodynamic improvements to the body. A splitter and lower lip spoiler at the front help push the car down at high speeds, while the side skirts have a step-like form to generate a linear airflow along with the bodywork. Wider tires are mounted on the quarter panels, and a bigger wing on the trunk lid pushes the back of the car even harder into the ground. Furthermore, a diffuser aids in the ground effect.
A flat-crank V8 engine sits beneath the hood, designed to withstand extreme temperatures and lengthy periods of high revs. It’s paired with a six-speed manual transmission that sends power to the rear wheels through a Torsen limited-slip differential.
Conclusion:
Since 1964, the Ford Mustang has been among the most popular sports cars in the world, selling millions of units.
The Mustang’s main goal is to provide pony car thrills at a decent price. Today’s Mustang coupe and convertible, which were last revised for the 2015 model year, maintain the original’s design cues, with long-hood, short-deck style, a smallish backseat, and rear-wheel drive. If you want to test drive this car before buying, prefer renting it from one of the top car rental agencies in Dubai, such as One Click Drive. You will find many Mustang models available for rent.
