What to Expect From 2025 Ford Mustang Dark Horse Specs
Every new Ford Mustang for sale comes standard with a unitized welded steel body, aluminum vented hood, steel front fenders, and a range of features tailored toward excellent performance. Fully independent front and rear suspension produces a forgiving driving experience, and an intensive suite of safety features is standard all the way up the trim ladder. So, what makes the 2025 Ford Mustang Dark Horse trim so unique?
With its dominating appearance, the Dark Horse has its own character. The 2025 Ford Mustang Dark Horse engine, a 5.0-liter Coyote V-8 engine, pushes its speed and agility to the next level. This jump forward in performance comes with a price because the Dark Horse has a much higher MSRP than its counterparts for the new model year.
