When Will the 2024 Ford Mustang Dark Horse Be Available in Wisconsin?
Wisconsinites who love power and performance when they get behind the wheel can expect to see the 7th-Generation 2024 Ford Mustang at dealerships in Summer 2023. When it makes its debut at Benna Ford, drivers will have a pair of standard models to choose from – Mustang EcoBoost® and Mustang GT – that are available in coupe and convertible body styles. The track-focused 2024 Ford Mustang Dark Horse is expected to arrive in the same timeframe with upgraded performance attributes and a more aggressive style.
How Much Power Does the 2024 Ford Mustang Dark Horse Have?
The 2024 Ford Mustang sets the bar high for the iconic muscle car with an impressive engine lineup that is more powerful than ever. The entry-level Ford Mustang EcoBoost® employs the most powerful standard engine in a Ford Mustang to date with a 2.3-liter EcoBoost® four-cylinder that produces 315 horsepower and 350 pound-feet of torque. The ever-popular Ford Mustang GT uses a 4th-Generation 5.0-liter Coyote V-8 that is capable of 486 horsepower and 418 pound-feet of torque – making it the most powerful naturally-aspirated eight-cylinder Ford Mustang ever.
The Ford Mustang Dark Horse is a horse of a different color and will challenge many competitors in its class. Powered by a performance-engineered 5.0-liter Coyote V-8 power core, the 2024 Ford Mustang will make 500 horsepower and 418 pound feet of torque with a responsive six-speed TREMEC® manual transmission. That is the most powerful eight-cylinder engine in any Ford Mustang that does not have the Shelby® name attached to it.
What Are the 2024 Ford Mustang Dark Horse Performance Features?
