The GT500 is one of the cars that sends the most chills down Ford fans’ back is. Now it seems that the next generation of the Mustang from Ford manufacturer will generate 570 horsepower.
The current generation of Mustang genetates 550 hp from its massive 5.4-liter V8, thanks in part to a long list of performance mods. According to a report from Motor Authority, the next generation will keep its supercharger for the foreseeable future.
The 2014 model will get at least 20 ponies extra, to a total of 570, which is actually usefull if you are driving the current version with the AC on and you feel the power loss.
In terms of design, the next generation won’t benefit from new lines, which would probably ruin it.
Some time ago another rumor has been sparked, which suggested the GT500 would have 620 hp. Now, in this situation, we can’t hide our disappointment with just 20 extra horsepower.
For 2012 is a new Boss version of the Mustang on deck, though details on that model are still being secret. In the meantime, the Mustang is expected to get an even more focused Track Pack to complement the big V-8.
However, the changes brought about in 2013 aren’t revolutionary, so will have to wait for the lighter, more focused next-gen Mustang for a radical track monster
