If you want to unleash your inner racer, you might want to check out the Ford Mustang GT4. This is the newest and most affordable race car from Ford Performance, based on the 2024 Ford Mustang Dark Horse. The GT4 is designed to compete in the SRO-sanctioned GT4 category, which features some of the most exciting and diverse sports car racing in the world.
The Ford Mustang GT4 debuted at the 24 Hours of Spa in Belgium, showing off the stunning livery created by Troy Lee Designs. The car also features the new Ford Performance logo, which reflects the brand’s commitment to motorsports excellence. The GT4 is the result of a collaboration between Ford Performance and Multimatic, the Canadian engineering firm that also built the legendary Ford GT and several special-edition Aston Martins.
The heart of the Ford Mustang GT4 is a Coyote-based V8 engine that was developed and assembled by Ford Performance in Dearborn, Michigan. The engine delivers around 500 horsepower and 420 lb-ft of torque, making it one of the most powerful naturally aspirated V8s in its class. The engine is paired with a Holinger dog-ring gearbox with paddle shifters and pneumatic actuation, which provides quick and precise gear changes. The body panels are made of natural fiber for weight reduction, while the aerodynamics package includes a splitter, canards, and a large rear wing for optimal downforce and stability.
