• Engine and Power

  

  With a high-performance vehicle like the 2020 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350, the engine is really the heart of the machine and arguably the most important component. In any vehicle, the engine is essential for overall performance, but with a sports car, everything that the engine brings to the table simply becomes even more vital. Thankfully, the incredible engine in the Shelby GT350 does not disappoint, and it guarantees a thrilling ride that will keep you coming back for more and make you excited to get behind the wheel.

  The engine in the 2020 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350 is a 5.2L Ti-VCT V8 with a flat plane crank, which provides 526 hp and 429 lb-ft of torque for truly fantastic performance. This kind of power takes off quickly from the line and puts you back in your seat as it roars to life and propels you forward with incredible speed. It is exactly what you would expect in something like a Mustang Shelby model and really pushes the limits of what a consumer performance car can do.

  For the sake of comparison, consider this: the standard 2020 Ford Mustang comes with a 2.3L GTDI engine that offers up to 310 hp and 350 lb-ft of torque. Even the incredible BULLITT edition of the 2020 Mustang with its 5.0L V8 engine still only produces up to 480 hp and falls short of what this beauty can do. The only model that can beat the GT350 is the GT500, and to be fair, that car is simply on a different level.

• Soul of a Racecar

  

  Although the 2020 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350 has been designed for consumer use, deep down, it really does have the soul of a racecar. Whether you plan on hitting the track or not, everything about this incredible machine has clearly been inspired by the performance and design of a professional racecar. You can see these details inside and out, and they not only look amazing but also come through in terms of performance.

  For example, the engine in the Mustang Shelby GT350 does not come paired with any old transmission, or even a nice automatic one. No – this is a car designed for true racing enthusiasts, which means it comes with a TREMEC six-speed manual transmission. If you love performance vehicles, then you already know that manual transmissions are becoming harder to find, which makes it such a joy to see a fantastic and responsive manual on this car. It feels every bit as good to drive and smoothly shift through the gears as you might imagine, but you really have to experience it for yourself to fully appreciate it.

  Similarly, the independent rear suspension is designed to help improve handling and vehicle responsiveness, so you know you are in control every moment you are behind the wheel. The dual exhaust system sounds amazing and keeps you running beautifully, and the Brembo brakes in front and rear ensure you can stop quickly and safely, whether you are on the road or at the track. Speaking of at the track, a launch control system is designed specifically for track use and will help you get off the line even faster.

• Interior Options

  

  Although you are probably more interested in the engine and similar features of the 2020 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350, at the end of the day, as a driver, you will spend most of your time inside the cockpit of the new Mustang. As such, you should care about what is going on in there, and it is clear that Ford feels the same way because the interior features and options for this car are fantastic. It never loses sight of its racecar inspirations, while still affording luxury and comfort that you might not expect.

  RECARO cloth/Miko sport seats come standard in the Mustang Shelby GT350, which can include 6-way power adjustability for the front passenger and driver seats. Leather-trimmed details are available, which matches the leather-wrapped steering wheel and other features inside the cabin. The Shelby GT350 also features dual-zone electronic automatic temperature control, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, and aluminum foot pedals.

  Although a 9-speaker sound system is standard, there is also an available 12-speaker Bang & Olufsen premium sound system that includes HD radio and a subwoofer in the trunk. Voice-activated navigation is available, and the Shelby GT350 comes with a suite of track apps, Ford performance scuff plates, and a performance instrument cluster. All of these features come together to create an experience that is absolutely breathtaking and truly a thrill to drive.

• Safety Features

  

  In general, most people choose a high-performance vehicle like the 2020 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350 for its incredible power and how fun it is to drive, not its safety features. That being said, safety still matters, especially when you have the kind of power at your fingertips that the Mustang can provide. While you should drive safely and responsibly, good safety features are incredibly important in case the unexpected should occur.

  The Shelby GT350 might not have as many safety features as some of Ford’s other vehicles, but it still has a lot to offer. Standard safety features include 3-point belt restraints, AdvanceTrac with electronic stability control, and an SOS post-crash alert system just in case. One of the best things about this vehicle in terms of safety is the impressive suite of airbags included with it. The Ford Mustang Shelby GT350 includes a glove-box-door-integrated knee airbag, driver’s knee airbag, dual front airbags, front-seat side-impact airbags, and safety canopy side-curtain airbags.

  Additional safety features of the 2020 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350 include a rearview camera, daytime running lights, power glass side mirrors with integrated blind spot mirrors, and LED sequential taillights. There are also a few optional safety features that are available on this car, including a blind spot information system with cross-traffic alert. This lets you take your safety a step further and ensure you are absolutely as secure as possible. Just remember that active and passive safety features are no replacement for safe behavior when you get behind the wheel. Always drive carefully and remember that even though the Shelby GT350 performs like a race car, the open road or the highway are not race tracks.
