MORE MUSCLE BACK AT THE RANCH

THE NEW V8 COYOTE ENGINE IS SIMPLE ON THE OUTSIDE WITH RACE TECH ON THE INSIDE

- Pawan Dhingara

Ford isn’t just keeping the normally aspirated V8 alive, it’s making it a whole lot better and more powerful. This is exactly what fans of the Mustang have been asking for, and in the past would have needed to open their wallets at Shelby or Roush in order to scratch that itch.

When the all-new Mustang goes on sale next year, it will feature engine technology that pushes the V8 to the limit. At the heart of these upgrades to the Coyote motor is a balanced crankshaft and forged pistons, plus forged rods. These will handle the higher cylinder pressures, especially up at the 7,500rpm redline.
