Hailing from the sixth generation of Ford’s popular Mustang pony car, this 2022 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 is definitely the machine for the driver who wants something thrilling to spice up daily drives. Of course, it’s a competent track tool and drag strip decimator as well. Yes, this powerful machine might not please your entire family, but it’s still got plenty of tech to keep you amused when needed.

Exterior and Interior
This 2022 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 is a menacing looker, with its sharp-edged design language and hunkered-down stance. While the car wears a Shadow Black coat, its Bright White vinyl over-the-top tape stripe gives it that iconic racing look, as does its 20-inch exposed carbon fiber wheels. There’s more carbon too, in the shape of the Carbon Fiber Track Pack, as well as an exposed carbon fiber I/P and wing. The car also has the Technology Package and Equipment Group 950A. Those lovely wheels, in case you’re concerned, are protected by a wheel locking kit. The interior of this 2022 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 is an affair for two, because the car has received the Rear Seat Delete option. Nevertheless, the two remaining seats are Recaro leather-trimmed units for maximum comfort. You’ve also got a 12-speaker Bang & Olufsen sound system, a blind-spot information system, cross-traffic alert and voice-activated navigation with touchscreen controls. Air conditioning with dual-zone climate control is also present, as is the usual suite of power convenience features. The multifunction steering wheel hosts paddle shifters as well, allowing you to take control of the gearbox when desired.

Engine
This 2022 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 packs a sonorous 5.2-liter supercharged V8 under the hood. The engine is rated at 760hp and 625lb-ft. Yes, that’s right, over 700 raging horses waiting to be unleashed to the rear axle. Corralling these horses is a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission by Tremec that can offer whip-crack shifts when needed; yet remains friendly and tractable in town driving. Large, ventilated disc brakes, power steering and special suspension are also part of the GT500 package, making this car the definitive driver’s dream.
