New '700bhp+' Mustang Shelby GT500 Is Ford's Most Powerful Road Car Ever
Ford is fed up of playing second fiddle to Dodge in the power stakes, so to take on the Challenger Hellcat it's brewing a special supercharged Mustang
Something big is coming from Ford. The company has confirmed a new Mustang Shelby GT500 for 2019, and it’s going to have at least 700bhp.
It’s going to have a supercharged V8, most likely derived from the current 5.0-litre unit, and it’s going to be Ford’s most powerful road-legal production car ever. As you’ve probably guessed, Ford has had enough of being outgunned by Dodge’s 707bhp Challenger SRT Hellcat.
It follows the Ford-sanctioned Roush supercharger conversion that acts as a stop-gap 700bhp solution. Bank on functional aerodynamics and ‘track technologies’ in a car derived from Ford’s relevant motorsport programmes. We can’t wait to see (and hear) it.

How many teasers you’re going to make, Ford?
A few
Hopefully not as many as dodge did with the demon…
Wow! Ford are going all out! First the Ford Mustang Bullit and now this 700bhp+ GT500. It would be great if this wasn’t overshadowed by the new Mach 1 electric SUV though.
most people prefer SUV’s and i dont know why.
But what if Mach 1 electric SUV is what allows to keep environmental authorities happy and produce 700hp+ supercharged V8s? And future sales could allow to use profit surpluses on even more awesome cars?
P.S. just a way of looking at it, ofc still could have used a different name for it, but if it allows to sell more of the SUVs and get more profits to spend on making awesome cars, I don’t mind
Wasn’t there already such a car? The super snake? As far as i can remember it had around 750 hp stock
Que a load of the same old Mustang crash videos…..but faster.
First we get a mustang bullit and now this?!?!
What a time to be alive!
When will they release the new Cobra Jet? 😎
When will they release the new Mach 1? Oh wait.
Probably soon. Not that they need to, the existing one already shames the Demon.
hmm Cobra or Hellcat?
I sense a difficult decision arising…
I’d prefer the Cobra. It has more cornering capabilities than the demon
Well do you want to drive in a straight line in the hellcat or have slight convindence you can make it around that turn in a mustang going 30 mph
I just wish that someone won’t put another mustang-crowd jokes here. It’s a very jaded jokes.
More than 700 horses soon to be avaible on parking lots. Probably possible for spectators to touch them
Well it isn’t far from the truth lol
I think that Ford have a petrolhead as their chief engineer (Mustang Bullitt, this GT500), but also a improved clon of Ethan (the Mach 1 electric SUV)
Nah, probably the chief is a petrolhead but he has to hold down a team of economic and ecologic experts that would turn the Mustang into a eletric crossover without thinking twice. He saved the Bullit and the GT500, but wasnt able to save the Mach 1.
So does this mean, that I have to run faster if I’m in the crowd?
So a 700 + Hp crowd pleaser then!!!????
Sorry about that, I’m allergic to dead memes.
