[Update: September 18.09.2023, XNUMX] This post was updatedto take more recent information into account. Rumours, leaks and lots of speculation! It was rumored that Ford would soon conjure up one Mid-engined Mustang out of the hat. Because now there are pictures from Mustang GTDwho is actually in Pebble Beach was to be presented, leaked online. And what shows up? A racing car for everyday use, based on the GT3. But a real one Mid-engine concept? Seemingly None! After classic coupes and convertibles, editions like the Dark Horse, motorsport variants like GT3 and GT4 or the Mach-E versions, Ford still doesn't seem to be finished. A recent leak revealed that they appear to be working on a mid-engined prototype that should debut at Pebble Beach. If you've dreamed of a mid-engine Mustang comparable to the Ford GT, then wrap up warm. The Mustang GTD, and no, there is no diesel engine installed, seems a kind Hybrid from the Mustang GT3 racing car be.
Mustang GTD: "mid-engine", but different!
So the “mid-engine” is probably more of a Front mid-engine concept, which takes the legendary Coyote V8 a piece relocated, probably behind the front axle. But it is also possible that only the transmission, similar to a transaxle construction, has been relocated slightly to optimize weight distribution. The look of the GTD is reminiscent of the well-known Mustang with a front engine. Features like the widths wheelhouses and the air intakes but look as if they were taken directly from the GT3 racer. And then there's another one massive rear wing. There is also an adjustable one Suspension and new Alloy wheels with grippy tires. In the development Ford has allegedly with multi-mac from Canada, who were already involved in the development of the Ford GT.
The company also built the Bronco DR and motorsport versions Mustang GT3 and GT4 for Ford. For the Mustang GTD so could be a modified S650 architecture are used, which can currently be found in the new Mustang. So, in short: With the Mustang GTD we get a road racing car, which is based on the GT3. A beast of an athlete, but not that mid-engine athlete, which some had expected.
