The Ford Mustang Shelby GT350 2019 hides details and equipment of the Ford GT500

The Ford Mustang Shelby GT350 is updated for the 2019 model year and, to improve its technology and aerodynamics, the future Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 has been used as a reference

The Ford Mustang Shelby GT350 is set to start 2019 with a redesign that will surprise us. Sure, we know the Ford Mustang Shelby GT350 is a truly impressive car, but the new version, ready for next year, brings plenty of novelties, although many of them are not very visible from the outside. The main changes are related to aerodynamics and improve the model’s behaviour.

The most visible changes concern the front grille, which has a slightly different look, and a revised spoiler that reduces air resistance. The new spoiler features a Gurney flap, named after the racing driver and team owner Ron Gurney, to improve aerodynamic downforce.

To keep the power of this muscle car under control, Ford has fitted a set of Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tyres, designed with a tread pattern and compound specific to the model. The front tyres have a diameter of 295 mm at the front and 305 mm at the rear. The springs and suspension have been tuned, and the front brakes with ABS have six pistons while the rear ones have four.

The interior has also been worked on, making it even more comfortable. The front seats feature a new upholstery, with contrasting patterns and textures, both on the seats and on other parts of the cabin. To add some extra spice to the package, they have prepared an optional audio system with 12 speakers from B & O Play.

The SYNC 3 information and entertainment system works with an 8-inch screen and dual-zone climate control. It will also be available in two colours, Velocity Blue and Ford Performance Blue. Part of this technology and the elements that improve aerodynamics will also be present on the Ford Mustang Shelby GT500, so we will have the smaller sibling of this model with features that bring it very close to the new model in the family. For now we know nothing about the price and the full optional equipment, but we will not be long in finding out.
