Ford launches more drift-friendly Mustang EcoBoost

Ford has introduced several high-performance variants based on the seventh-generation Mustang, including the Dark Horse and GTD models.

Now, another variant has been launched for enthusiasts who need not worry about budget constraints: the Mustang EcoBoost RTR Package.

With upgrade options from RTR, the Mustang EcoBoost is now more capable as a true drift machine.

Key features include Brembo brakes from the GT Performance Package, which comprise six-piston calipers at the front and four-piston calipers at the rear.

Additionally, the rear subframe from the Dark Horse model has been incorporated, along with front and rear sway bars for a stiffer chassis.

Other features include an optimized steering gear, new tuning for the stability control system, MagneRide dampers, an Electronic Drift Brake, and a high-performance exhaust system complete with four tips.

Visual upgrades include illuminated exhaust tips, an RTR grille and logo, a front fascia from the GT model, a GT Performance Pack spoiler at the rear, and Tarnished Dark Anodized accents.

Lastly, a Hyper Lime color package has been introduced to replace the black on the Brembo brake calipers, accompanied by unique stitching within the cabin.

The Ford Mustang EcoBoost does not come with a power upgrade, meaning it retains the 2.3-liter turbocharged inline-four engine, generating 315 hp and 475 Nm of torque.

Although it is only offered with a 10-speed automatic transmission, it still features the RTR anti-lag system taken from the GT race car.

The official sales price has not yet been disclosed.
