Jim Farley said at the meeting that Ford would be shifting its product range away from ordinary vehicles and focusing on more passionate and target-oriented models. He said that the “Dark Horse” brand was born as part of this strategy.
Currently, the only model under this sub-brand is known as the Mustang Dark Horse. This high-performance sports car was unveiled at the China International Import Expo in November 2023. The Mustang Dark Horse carries the most powerful 5.0-liter Coyote V8 engine ever produced by the Ford automotive giant.

Ford postpones electric SUV and pickup models. Having lost power in the electric market, Ford has shifted to a new strategy.

In terms of design language, the performance of the vehicle is also visually prioritized. So, Dark Horse models could be the kind of vehicles we’ll see more on the track.
