New Mustang Dark Horse
The 2024 Ford Mustang Dark Horse takes the already impressive car to a new level with its track-focused model, exuding a dark aura. With an astonishing 500 horsepower and 418 lb-ft of torque, the Dark Horse variant is truly exceptional. The potent muscle car’s performance is enhanced by features such as extra vents and a more angled wing, which serve to complement and improve upon the standard GT model.
In 2024, the performance-oriented Ford Mustang prioritized track performance by enhancing the renowned Coyote V8 engine. This was achieved by improving the crankshaft and incorporating forged piston connecting rods from the GT500 to accommodate the increased power output.

Offering ’60s-Inspired Horizontal Grille And Optimized Roofline
Since 2014, the Ford Mustang’s style has been rather unremarkable, but 2024 marks a significant change. The 2024 Mustang from Ford boasts sharper edges and a ’60s-inspired horizontal grille, as well as an improved roofline designed to accommodate race helmets. The latest design exudes a similar aura to the GT3 and GT4 racing models, often found on nearly street-illegal race cars. The most noticeable visual contrast is between the EcoBoost and GT versions, with the EcoBoost maintaining its rounded aesthetic and the GT showcasing a sleeker appearance with a more angular hood.

The 2024 Ford Mustang Has Remote Rev Functionality
In 2024, the Ford Mustang will come equipped with a remote rev feature, allowing owners to start their Coyote V8 engine using a key fob and experience the powerful sound of their muscle car’s engine.
From a neutral standpoint, this feature is primarily ornamental and lacks any practical purpose aside from its aesthetic appeal. In order for 2024 Mustang owners to utilize the remote rev function, they must have both the active exhaust system and the 10-speed automatic gearbox.
