Can The 2024 Dark Horse Mustang Prove Its Mettle Against Its Outgoing Rivals?

Roaring onto the automotive scene with untamed power and a seductive presence, the 2024 Ford Mustang Dark Horse emerges as an embodiment of sheer automotive excellence. In an era where innovation and performance reign supreme, this latest version of the iconic American muscle car stands as a testament to Ford’s unwavering commitment to pushing boundaries.

Powering the Dark Horse is a 4th generation ‘Coyote’ 5.0L V8 engine, delivering an impressive 500 horsepower and 418 lb-ft of torque. Owners can opt for either a 10-speed automatic transmission or the sought-after 6-speed Tremec manual transmission. However, its arrival into the scene is quite intriguing, especially if you consider that most of its rival like the Chevy Camaro and Dodge Challenger, shifting into a different direction and embracing a future that may not involve V8 engines.

Regardless of how its peers are moving forward, the Dark Horse along with the rest of the S650 Mustang lineup has already proven itself both on the dyno and the drag strip, positioning itself as a superior choice against its competitors. To further show to us the superiority of the new Mustang, especially the Dark Horse, Throttle House has released a video on YouTube wherein they compare it to a Camaro LT1, and a Challenger Scat Pack 392 Widebody. Watch the video to see how the new Mustang performs against its outgoing rivals!
