Review

Forty-two years after the first model, a new Mustang Boss 302 was announced by Ford. Keeping in mind the 1969 model the team at Ford, the same that developed the 2011 Mustang GT, worked to give the new model the purest form. In terms of design the objective at Ford was to evoke the 1969 Boss in a contemporary way.

As for the engine featured in the Boss, the V8 engine team, led by Mike Harrison, took the 5.0-litre 412 hp 2011 GT engine and increased its power. The result was a 28 hp increase with 515 Nm of torque. This was possible thanks to the revised camshafts using more aggressive grind and activated with the same twin independent variable camshaft timing (Ti-VCT) mechanism used on the Mustang GT.

Another important aspectof the Boss 302 is its sound. The exhaust system featured in the 2012 Mustang Boss 302 has two outlets that exit in the rear similar to the Mustang GT. The Boss 302 has two other outlets that exit from each side of the exhaust crossover. They send exhaust through a set of metal discs that act as tuning elements before the pipes terminate just ahead of the rear wheel opening.

The new Mustang Boss 302 also includes a limited number of Boss 302 Laguna Seca models which pay tribute to the model’s racing heritage.
