Powertrains feature a turbocharged 2.3-liter EcoBoost inline-four yielding 310 horsepower and 350 lb-ft of torque, or the revered 5.0-liter Coyote V8 in 460-horsepower GT form (480 with exhaust upgrade), escalating to GT350’s 526-horsepower naturally aspirated V8 and GT500’s supercharged 760-horsepower beast, all rear-wheel drive with optional MagneRide adaptive suspension.

Fuel economy ranges 22/32 mpg city/highway for EcoBoost (21/29 GT) to 12/18 for GT500, supported by lightweight aluminum architecture and aerodynamic tweaks reducing drag to 0.35 Cd. The driver-focused cockpit seats four with supportive Recaro options, a 12.4-inch digital cluster, and 13.2-inch Sync 4 touchscreen integrating wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, navigation, B&O 12-speaker audio, and ambient lighting amid Alcantara accents.
