What is the difference between the Shelby GTE and the Mustang?
1 Answers
The difference between the Shelby GTE and the Mustang lies in their power output: The Shelby GTE is equipped with a 2.3T turbocharged engine, and after modifying the ECU program, its maximum horsepower is increased to 338 hp, with a maximum torque of 525 Nm. The Mustang is also equipped with a 2.3T turbocharged engine, but its maximum horsepower is 299 hp, and the maximum torque is 434 Nm. The Ford Shelby is an upgraded version of the Mustang with pure Ford lineage, modified based on the Mustang for enhanced performance. Originally, Shelby was a private tuning workshop specializing in modifying Ford Mustangs. The high-performance Mustangs modified by Shelby adopted the Cobra logo. Since Ford acquired Shelby's tuning factory, there is no longer a distinction between official and modified versions of the Mustang. Now, there are only two models: the Ford Mustang and the Ford Shelby.
