The 2020 Shelby GT500 Mustang does 0-60 mph in 3.3 seconds and has a top speed of 186 mph. It can do a quarter-mile in 10.7 seconds at around 132 mph. These insane numbers are thanks to the supercharged 5.2-liter V8—the most powerful production V8 in the world—and the TREMEC seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.
