How many seconds does it take for the Ford Mustang to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h?

According to official data, the Ford Mustang has a displacement of 2.3L and accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.8 seconds. Factors affecting the vehicle's 0-100 km/h acceleration time are as follows: Torque: Torque, in layman's terms, represents how much force is available. The greater the torque, the stronger the force pushing the vehicle, and the faster the acceleration naturally is. The Ford Mustang has a maximum torque of 434 Nm and accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.8 seconds. The Trumpchi M8 has a maximum torque of 390 Nm and accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 6.9 seconds. Transmission efficiency: The transmission is the medium for transferring power, inevitably involving power loss. The higher the transmission efficiency, the better the acceleration performance. Generally, the ranking of transmission efficiency is manual transmission > dry dual-clutch transmission > wet dual-clutch transmission > AT transmission > CVT transmission. The Ford Mustang uses a 10-speed automatic transmission. Power-to-weight ratio: The relationship between horsepower and vehicle weight is called the power-to-weight ratio (unit is Hp/T). The greater the power-to-weight ratio, the faster the acceleration. The Ford Mustang has a power-to-weight ratio of 175 Hp/T and accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.8 seconds. The Trumpchi M8 has a power-to-weight ratio of 121 Hp/T and accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 6.9 seconds.
The acceleration performance of the Ford Mustang varies by model. The most frequently asked about is the 2.3T four-cylinder version, with official data around just over 5 seconds. I've personally tested it several times, with results fluctuating between 5.2-5.5 seconds. But if you want real thrills, the 5.0L V8 GT is the way to go—it can easily break into the 4-second club straight from the factory. The G-force from the American V8 and the exhaust backfire are the soul of the Mustang, far more important than shaving off a few tenths of a second. If you're hitting mountain roads or track days, chassis tuning and tires actually have a bigger impact on the real-world experience.
