Art of Performance: Limited-Edition Mustang Mach 1 Rides Back onto the Muscle Car Scene on Unique Handling Package Wheels


FORD CANADA - 
Inspired by construction and engineering marvels such as bridges, roll cages and even bird’s nests, the all-new Mustang Mach 1 Handling Package wheels aim to capture attention when they reach roads and tracks across the U.S. and Canada early next year. 

Using a layered construction design typically reserved for show cars and other non-production vehicles, the cast aluminum wheels bring with them on-track benefits such as structural integrity for hard cornering and about a two-pound weight drop from the standard Mach 1 wheels, despite being one inch wider. 

The all-new 2021 Ford Mustang Mach 1 Handling Package will be available to order on Jan. 4, reaching showrooms in the spring.

Mach 1 Handling Package vehicles come with:

  • Unique, wider 19-inch x 10.5-inch front, and 19-inch x 11-inch rear Tarnished Dark-painted aluminum wheels
  • 305/30R19 (front) and 315/30R19 (rear) tires (Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2)
  • Adjustable strut top mounts
  • Performance rear spoiler with gurney flap
  • Revised chassis tuning
  • Performance front aero splitter
    • 150 per cent more downforce than a Mustang GT with Performance Pack Level 1
