Ford Shelby Mustang

By TMN StaffPublished: February 11, 2010

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.”

• An upgrade to the MyFord Touch™ system, MyFord Touch with Sony® Audio System adds a Sony-designed electronic finish panel with a high-gloss black finish and unique treatment of the touch-sensitive controls. The Sony panel is completely flat (except for the center knob), so the touch cells are executed as circular “landing zones” for the finger
• Touch-sensitive technology eliminates traditional buttons and switches for easier, customer-friendly operation; the touch cells create a tiny electrical field that the finger – even a thin-gloved one – breaks, causing the cell to go on or off like a traditional switch
• MyFord Touch with Sony Audio System is standard on the 2011 Ford Edge Limited and 2011 Ford Edge Sport

• Partnering with top-ranked national and international universities, the Ford “Atoms to Engines” team challenged skeptics to develop the world’s first virtual materials modeling prediction tool that allows the team to simulate the microstructures of a material before the first prototype is built.
• The Atoms to Engines team blends engineering and science to develop physics-based computer models that predict how properties and materials will behave and change during the manufacturing process.
• Building these computer models integrates the study of product performance, manufacturing and materials; in some cases it requires analyzing metals down to their atomistic level.
• The result? Components that are more durable and efficiently constructed, which saves the company considerable development time and money. In fact, the process is estimated to save Ford between $2 and $5 million a year in reducing test requirements and product development time.
