Shelby American has modified its first EV, throwing oodles of carbon fiber at the Mach-E GT and fitting Borla's Active Performance Sound System.
and focuses on weight reduction and improved handling. Only 100 examples will be available, celebrating the 100th anniversary of Carroll Shelby's birth.Strangely, the Shelby Mustang Mach-E GT will be exclusively offered in Europe. Shelby American says the decision was based on rapidly rising EV sales and a greater number of public chargers in the Old World compared to the U.S.
Shelby American also fitted the car with lightweight forged aluminum wheels and performance springs that lower the vehicle by over an inch. The cabin features custom Shelby-branded floor mats, while a Shelby badge on the tailgate and a serialized plaque on the dashboard serve as reminders that you bought the exclusive Shelby version of Ford's performance EV.The most controversial feature of the Shelby Mach-E, however, is the Borla Active Performance Sound System.
The SEMA system included three options that mimicked different V-8s, and Borla had said it was working on EV-specific sounds, although Shelby didn't specify which tones the Mach-E GT would be capable of. Shelby American describes sound as "an important visceral component to motoring for enthusiasts," but it remains to be seen whether the car-obsessed will approve of artificial noises that are beginning to proliferate across the EV market.
While the Shelby Mach-E GT will remain forbidden fruit for now, we hope Shelby American starts exploring the U.S. market soon and manages to eke some extra performance out of whatever EV it modifies next.
