Ford Mustang Dark Horse (2025) Price & Spec
The Mustang Dark Horse takes the American muscle car concept up a notch and the good news is that it’s confirmed for SA! Here’s all you need to know.
What’s a Dark Horse?
Following on from the standard 7th-generation Ford Mustang GT will be this Mustang Dark Horse, which the Blue Oval claims will be a ‘street and track-capable performance Mustang,’ so we’re expecting a bit more firepower and aggression.
For this derivative, the 5.0-litre naturally-aspirated V8 engine has been upgraded to make a bit more power than the standard car, and outputs of 334 kW and 540 Nm (6 kW more than the GT) are claimed. As always, the Mustang is rear-wheel driven and features a 10-speed automatic transmission. It’s not just about a bit more power as there are enhancements to the aerodynamics and handling setup too.
Visually, you can spot a Dark Horse with bigger grille, darkened LED headlamps, fixed rear wing and darkened exhaust tips. There’s a special new Mustang Dark Horse badge too and customers have the choice of a unique Blue Ember metallic paint.
How much does the Mustang Dark Horse cost in South Africa?
