How much horsepower does the Mustang 2.3T have?

[MacHarmony]

This car has 299 horsepower. Below are the specific details about the Mustang's 2.3-liter engine: 1. The Mustang is a sports car under Ford, equipped with two engines: a 2.3-liter turbocharged engine and a 5.0-liter V8 naturally aspirated engine. 2. The Mustang's 2.3-liter turbocharged engine is the same as the one used in the Focus RS, which is a four-cylinder turbocharged engine. 3. The Mustang's 2.3-liter turbocharged engine delivers a maximum power of 220 kW and a maximum torque of 434 Nm. 4. The maximum power is achieved at 5,400 rpm, and the maximum torque is reached at 3,000 rpm. This engine features direct fuel injection technology and uses an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. 5. The engine is paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission (10AT).

I previously test drove the Mustang with the 2.3T engine. The official data states 299 horsepower, and in actual driving, the acceleration push is very strong. This 2.3-liter turbocharged engine is tuned quite aggressively, satisfying daily racing needs in stock condition. Many people feel a four-cylinder lacks the Mustang spirit, but in city driving, the power is readily available when overtaking. The turbo sound at 4000 RPM is particularly thrilling. Note that this car has great modification potential—a simple ECU tune can easily surpass 350 horsepower, but it's recommended to upgrade the braking system first.

I've been driving the Mustang 2.3T for three years, and its 299 horsepower is more than sufficient for daily use. I remember checking the engine nameplate when I first got the car—the Ecoboost engine delivers its maximum horsepower at 5500 rpm, which feels especially exhilarating on the highway. While it lacks some of the roar of the V8 version, it's much more fuel-efficient, averaging around 10 liters per 100 km in mixed driving conditions. Once, a friend took my car for a mountain run, and when he floored the throttle out of a corner, the downshift was instantaneous with almost no noticeable turbo lag. The chassis tuning truly lives up to the power.

As an enthusiast of American performance cars, the 299 horsepower tuning of the Mustang 2.3T is quite clever. The engine delivers 380 Nm of torque at low RPMs, allowing it to always be half a car length ahead at traffic light starts. The closed-deck design of this engine enhances block strength, and even under continuous aggressive driving for half an hour in stock condition, there's no noticeable heat soak. Many tuning enthusiasts prefer upgrading the intercooler and exhaust, but the stock hardware is already excellent, especially with the transmission shift logic working in perfect harmony.
