The new seventh-generation Ford Mustang, the S650, is a crucial staying action in a market careening toward electrification and hybridization. Specifically, the new Mustang comes on the heels of the Dodge Challenger and Chevrolet Camaro throwing in the towel. However, Ford chose to step things up with the most powerful GT ever, the new S650 2024 Ford Mustang GT, which packs an angry 5.0L V8 and big horsepower. Check out the latest and last generation of internal combustion engine (ICE) GTs and their rampaging ponies. 

How much horsepower will the 2024 Mustang GT have?

The new 2024 Ford Mustang will produce 480 horsepower. That’s just as much as the S550 generation Bullitt and Mach 1, but those Mustangs are special edition pony cars. As a result, the 2024 Ford Mustang will be the most powerful GT in the model’s history. Moreover, Car and Driver says the 2024 S650 GT will offer a performance exhaust system that takes the horsepower figure up to 486.
