Ford is aiming to achieve a lap time of less than 7 minutes on the Nürburgring Nordschleife with the Mustang GTD. This would put the GTD on par with some of the fastest European supercars, such as the Porsche 911 GT2 RS, Lamborghini Aventador SVJ, and Mercedes-AMG GT Black Series.
The Mustang GTD is the most powerful Mustang ever, with a targeted output of over 811 horsepower from its heavily reworked, supercharged V8 engine. This output surpasses even the 709-horsepower Shelby GT500, which was previously the most powerful Mustang.
The Mustang GTD’s semi-active suspension system varies spring rates and ride height. In Track mode, the ride height lowers by 40 mm. The front suspension uses a motorsport-inspired “short-long arm” setup for improved stiffness and responsiveness.
GTD rear suspension: lightweight tubular subframe, like GT3’s. Suspension control units at rear, alongside transaxle cooling system.
