Dhanush's New Ford Mustang

Ford India first unveiled the Mustang GT in the country right before the 2016 Auto Expo, promising a launch in the second half of 2016 and was Ford show-stopper at the expo. Staying true to its word the American carmaker has finally launched the car in India in July 2016. The new generation Ford Mustang GT retains its brawny looks along with the All-American Muscle styling. In fact, the new-gen Ford Mustang GT won the NDTV Performance or Sports Car of the Year 2017.

The India-spec Ford Mustang comes in its top-spec avatar powered by a 5.0-litre V8 under the hood. The V8 features larger intake and exhaust valves, revised intake and exhaust camshafts among several other features to ensure maximum power generation. That said Ford has detuned the engine for the Indian market, which currently produces 390bhp and develops 515Nm of peak torque. The V8 comes mated to a 6-Speed automatic gearbox with paddle shifters. Ford offers the new Mustang GT with four different driving modes - Norman, Sport+, Track, and Snow/Wet modes. Each mode delivering power output as per its requirement.
