2011 Ford Mustang
The 2011 Ford Mustang is yet to be put into production. However,
given the huge power advantage the Chevrolet Camaro and the Dodge
Challenger have on Ford it is likely that the new Mustang will feature
a substantial power increase. Current rumours indicate the new motor
will be shared with the F150 and will make near 400hp. In fact,
in December 2009 Ford released the horsepower rating at an oustanding
412hp for the 2011 Mustang. The motor is codenamed 'Coyote' and
features 32 valves and measures an honest 5.0L.
Also being introduced in 2010 or 2011 will be the all new 3.7L
Duratec V-6 rated at an incredible 305hp. This engine features 4
valve heads, variable valve timing, and a 60 degrees V engine. All
these changes result in a very efficient engine that achieves 30mpg
when mated with the six speed automatic.
Given the increasing competition in the muscle car market you can
expect Ford to pull out all the marketing stops and offer a few
special models. Will the Boss finally return? We'll just have to
wait to find out.
