For the 2011 model year, the legendary Ford Mustang once again flexes its muscles with three all-new, state-of-the-art powertrains delivering marked gains in both fuel economy and power.

The 2011 Mustang coupe and convertible arrive with a 305-horsepower 3.7-liter V-6 engine with Ford’s new advanced engine valvetrain technology – Twin Independent Variable Camshaft Timing (Ti-VCT) – as standard equipment. Performance-minded buyers opting for the Mustang GT are treated to an all-new 5.0-liter, 32-valve V-8 with Ti-VCT, good for 412 horsepower. And the no-compromises Shelby GT500 gets a Ford GT-based aluminum block for its 5.4-liter supercharged V-8, leading to lighter weight and 550 horsepower.

“These three new engines represent a quantum leap in rounding out a world-class Mustang powertrain portfolio,” said Derrick Kuzak, group vice president, Global Product Development. “Each represents Ford’s commitment to use technology to deliver the performance and fun-to-drive factor customers demand, while continuously improving fuel economy.”
