For $995, owners of the 2024 Mustang Mach-E GT can download a performance upgrade enhancing the vehicle's torque by 100 lb-ft, reducing the 0-60 mph time to 3.3 seconds.
With the upgrade, the Mach-E GT's total output reaches 480 hp and 700 lb-ft of torque, enabling it to complete the quarter mile in 11.8 seconds at 114 mph, comparable to high-performance vehicles like the Mustang Shelby GT500 and Porsche Tacan Sport Turismo GTS.
