New Ford Mustang GTD Leak Details Options, Pricing, And MPG Figures

New Ford Mustang GTD Leak Details Options, Pricing, And MPG Figures originally appeared on Autoblog.
When the Ford Mustang GTD was unveiled, a few details were missing from the specification sheet, such as its exact starting price, gas mileage, optional extras, and a more complete list of standard equipment. We can now answer all of these questions, thanks to a leaked window sticker on the Mustang 7G forum, for what is the most extreme and fastest road-going Mustang ever conceived.
The 2025 Ford Mustang GTD has a base price of $318,760, slightly exceeding the previously estimated cost of $300k. It's still far and away the most expensive Mustang you can buy for the road. For some more perspective, the Porsche 911 GT3 RS, one of the ultimate track toys, starts at $241,300.
The GTD's base price isn't all that one has to take into consideration, though. It's also liable for a gas guzzler tax of $3,700, while the destination and delivery charge is a lot more for this exclusive Ford than for your everyday Mustang, at $5,500. We imagine that extra care is taken to ensure your GTD arrives at the showroom without so much as a speck of dust on the windshield.
Besides the extraordinary MSRP, the Mustang GTD is also laughably heavy on gas. The window sticker indicates it'll do only 10/17/12 mpg across the city/highway/combined cycles. The Ferrari Purosangue - with all 6.5 liters of engine capacity and 12 cylinders - is more efficient than this Mustang in city driving, at 11 mpg.
According to the EPA, you will use 8.3 gallons of gas in the GTD per 100 miles, while spending $12,500 more in fuel costs over five years than the average new car. The annual fuel cost of the Mustang is around $4,400, but that's based on covering 15,000 miles per year, which most GTDs are unlikely to ever do.
The Mustang GTD gets a host of extras over and above normal Mustangs, and these demonstrate what a specialized beast it is. As standard, you get an Akrapovic titanium exhaust, Brembo brakes with carbon ceramic rotors, various carbon fiber body panels, and Michelin Pilot Sport Cup tires.
Inside, there is a 12.4-inch digital gauge cluster and a 13.2-inch touchscreen with graphics that are unique to the GTD. If you tire of the sound of that 5.2-liter V8, there's a 12-speaker Bang & Olufsen sound system. Recaro racing seats will hold occupants firmly in place.
The customer who ordered this particular GTD added red brake calipers for $1,500 and an exposed carbon fiber roof for $10,000. The Equipment Group 100A appears not to have any cost, and includes a fixed wing, black seat belts, and a painted black lower surround.
Overall, this customer had to cough up $339,460 for this Mustang GTD.
The Mustang GTD is powered by a supercharged 5.2-liter V8 engine with an output of 815 horsepower. All of that is transferred to the rear wheels via an eight-speed Tremec dual-clutch transaxle. A special racing, semi-active suspension and all that grunt allowed the GTD to become the first American sports car to lap the Nurburgring in under seven minutes along the circuit's 12.9-mile stretch. The official time was six minutes and 52.072 seconds.
Flat out, the Mustang GTD will reach a top speed of 202 mph, easily trumping the fastest 911 GT3, which can "only" reach 194 mph.
It's been over a year since Ford began accepting applications for the Mustang GTD, but even that won't guarantee you one of these Mustangs, as Ford goes through a discerning process to determine who is worthy enough to buy it.

The Ford Ranger Plug-In Hybrid Has Arrived in Rugged Style

Fitness for purpose. Take a deftly aimed power tool to all the marketing flim-flam, and you can't go far wrong with that mantra. There's no messing around when it comes to a pick-up truck, a vehicle that has a clear job to do, and in most cases does it admirably. Except that even this segment isn't immune to mission creep, and these hardy vehicles are now expected to double as workhorse and acceptable all-round family transport. The Ford F-150 may typify the breed, but outside of the US the Ranger has been in active duty for more than 40 years. A global player since 2011, it sells in 180 territories worldwide, and is particularly dominant in the European pick-up market. But get this, 80 percent of the Rangers sold in the UK last year were in Wildtrak spec, the version that swaddles the hard plastics in leather and ladles on the decals. It's—deep breath—a genuine lifestyle vehicle, beloved by the sort of buyers who actually do stuff rather than just think about it. Now, at last, there's an electrified version, though we're talking hybrid rather than the whole enchilada. Ford sells the fully electric Lightning in the US, where it's locked in battle with Tesla's Cybertruck (though neither is setting the sales chart aflame), but this is the closest Brits are going to get for the foreseeable at least. Only Chinese maker Maxus sells an electric pick-up in the UK, a vehicle we wouldn't recommend, and Toyota's indestructible Hi-Lux makes do with a mild hybrid setup. This makes the Ranger PHEV a significant new arrival. It shares its platform hardware with the VW Amarok, and is manufactured in Ford's Silverton plant in South Africa. Until now, engine options have been limited to a 2.0-liter petrol or 3.0-liter diesel. The new car uses Ford's excellent 2.3-liter 'Ecoboost' turbo petrol unit (as previously seen in the Focus and Mustang), bolstered by a 75-kW (100-bhp) electric motor, packaged within the bell-housing of the 10-speed automatic transmission. Pick-Up Philosophy It's fed by an 11.8-kWh battery (usable) that sits under the Ranger's load bed. Despite its compact size, that still necessitated modifications to the vehicle's ladder frame chassis, resulting in a 20-millimeter bulge. (It has a 1-metric-ton payload and can accommodate a Euro pallet between the wheelhouses.) An electronically controlled clutch engages and disengages the e-motor and combustion engine, switching between petrol, hybrid, and electric propulsion. Visual differences are limited to a second filler flap on the near-side rear wing, with a lightning bolt logo on it, which hides the charging port for the battery. On a 7-kW wall charger, it takes about 2.5 hours to charge. Here's how it works. EV Auto is the default setting, blending electric and petrol power in a way best suited to everyday use, or if you're towing or lugging a heavy load. EV Now does what it says: This is for electric driving only, Ford claiming a range of around 26 miles (WLTP). EV Later allows the driver to store electric energy, particularly useful if you're heading into the city or a zero-emission zone. Finally, there's EV Charge, which sees the petrol engine charge the high-voltage battery, though it won't top it up by all that much. In addition to those, the PHEV maintains the driving modes used in extant Ranger models: Normal, Eco, Slippery, Tow/Haul, Mud/Ruts, and Sand. This new Ranger variant is clearly messing with the sacred strictures of the pick-up philosophy.
