Sports cars have always been a scarce product in the Chinese market, especially when the independent car brand has not yet risen, the sports cars imported into the Chinese market in previous years are often expensive, if it is not the identity of the rich second generation, the hand has saved three or four hundred thousand car purchase funds, in this case, the brand of Porsche does not even think about it. However, there is an American classic sports car that is relatively close to the people, this car is the Ford Mustang, that is, many young people like the Ford Mustang, of which the 2.3T version is reasonably priced in the Chinese market, at least not so floating, but the 2.3T version does not reflect the power of the American large displacement.
In 2024, Ford will introduce a new Mustang Dark horse, which is directly translated as the Ford Mustang Dark Horse version, which can actually be understood as the performance version of the Ford Mustang sports car. This version is set to be officially launched on January 29, and given the strong rise of Chinese car brands and the fact that the Ford brand has clearly begun to budge in recent years, the price of this imported sports car should show good sincerity.
Because it adopts a sports car architecture, the size of this car is not very large, the total length of the body is controlled within 4.8 meters, the body width is more than 1.9 meters, and the wheelbase is 2720mm, which is about the level of a compact car. In this case, the two-door 4-seat design is adopted, and the two seats in the rear row are indeed cramped, but compared to those two-seater sports cars, the practicality is still good.
This special edition of the Ford Mustang sports car is really cool on the outside, the first batch of models has arrived in port, and the paint is in a cool dark gray, the front face of the car has a very sharp matrix LED headlights, the car logo is black, the bonnet can be seen to see the obvious muscle line bulge, and there are additional air intakes.
The body also looks cool from the side, and the original factory offers lightweight forged Black Samurai wheels with blue multi-piston brake calipers inside. The key original state is the modified large-bore 4 exhaust, paired with a larger rear wing trim.
The exquisite atmosphere in the car has been improved, and the more conspicuous on the table is the double large screen, the digital LCD instrument panel and the central control car screen also form an angle, which makes the central control car screen angle biased to the driver's side, and the semi-surround style can avoid reflection problems. The seat fabric is made of color-blocked material, and the author thinks that the black countertop with the white seat will look more comfortable.
In fact, looking at the hood of the front of the car, you can already feel that the structure in the engine compartment is not simple, because this car is indeed equipped with a classic 5.0-liter displacement V8 engine, which is the real soul of the American muscle sports car, with a power output of 506 horsepower and a maximum output torque of 566 Nm, and it is a large-displacement naturally aspirated engine, there is no need to wait for the turbo to intervene, and the acceleration will be very linear. Interestingly, this model will be available in both automatic and manual configurations in the Chinese market, with the manual version using a 6-speed manual transmission.
The question is, how much do you think this sports car should be priced? Welcome to leave a message in the comment area, and fans will discuss it together!
