Ford Sports Cars

The American company may be famous for pickup trucks and family SUVs, but you’re just as likely to find a great Ford sports car.

Be prepared for the gas-guzzler tax

FAQs

What are the best Ford sports cars?

There is just one name in the lineup, and that’s Mustang. However, various different types of vehicles bear that name. If you want a cheap performance car, the plain-old Mustang coupe is a great option with its EcoBoost engine. You could also get a convertible version. The Mach 1 gies you that unforgettable V8 power, while the Shelby GT500 supercharges it.

What is the fastest Ford sports car?

With its supercharged V8 engine, the Mustang Shelby GT500 makes 760 horsepower and 625 lb-ft of torque. This propels it from 0-60 mph in a little over three seconds, despite the high weight of the vehicle.

Are there any electric Ford sports cars?

While there is an electric Mustang, it's the 4-door Mach-e SUV and not a sports car. In time, there may very well be an electric Ford Mustang speedster, which will help alleviate the model’s reputation for terrible mpg returns, but we’ll have to wait a bit longer for it.

What is the price of a new Ford sports car?

A Ford Mustang is one of the cheapest ways to get a new sports car, with the base coupe model costing under $30,000. The price of the higher-performance Mustang GT jumps up to almost $40,000, while the Mach 1 is priced around the mid $50k mark. The most expensive model is the Shelby GT500, which will cost you closer to $80k.
