2015 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350 |
NORWALK, Ohio. – It has been no surprise to the automotive
industry how successful the 50th Anniversary Edition of the Ford
Mustang is. What is truly surprising to not just the automotive industry but to
automotive consumers as well, is the extremely upgraded handling of the Ford
Shelby GT350. This recently advanced suspension tuning on the Shelby GT350 and
GT350R includes MagneRide dampers, which is a Mustang-first accessory for the
brand. Two-piece brake rotors for both the Shelby GT350 and the GT350R are the
most powerful brakes every fitted to the pony car, pair those with Michelin
tires and high-performance wheels and you have a recipe for one of the best
handling cars to ever be built. The Ford Shelby GT350 leads the pack for precision handling, with no other vehicle in its class currently at this level.
Raj
Nair, Ford V.P of Global Product Development states, "When we started
working on this car, we wanted to build the best possible Mustang for the
places we most love to drive-challenging back roads with a variety of corners
and elevation changes, and the track on weekends." Ford set out to create
the most powerful and responsible handling system in the automotive industry,
and it has succeeded immensely.
The
one factor that makes this entire reformulation possible is the MagneRide
dampers. The dampers control the spring oscillation in a vehicle's engine. They
do this by "damping" the spring's natural tendency to oscillate by
using hydraulic fluid. When an electronic current is passed through this
hydraulic fluid, immediately an instantaneous adjustment of the suspension
performance can be made. How does this make the GT350 and the GT350R easier to
handle? While the adjustments are being made to the engine via the dampers,
wheel position sensors can monitor motions THOUSANDS of times per second.
Combine that with various other vehicle data and changes can be made to each
corner every 7 milliseconds for optimum handling performance. In other words, the Ford Shelby GT350 leads the pack for precision handling and if you were ever in a high-speed chase for your life, the 2015 Ford Shelby
GT350 or GT350R is definitely, with out a doubt the vehicle you want to be
driving.
