Is there any way that you could improve the driving experience of the 2024 Mustang GT? Put the roof down and let that rumble of V8 fill the air as you drive into the sunset. If you think this is the ultimate expression of the Mustang GT, then you will be glad that 2024 marks the return of the GT Convertible powered by V8 and channelled by four tailpipes with the optional Active Exhaust System. The newest Mustang GT open top has all the features that make the Fastback great, including that new 5.0-litre V8 with 480 hp (486 hp with Active Exhaust Option), standard 6-speed with rev-matching and optional 10-speed automatic with shift paddles behind the wheel.
However, some enthusiasts might find the 2024 Mustang S650 GT Convertible a bit less engaging to drive due to more weight than the coupe. When equipped with a 10-speed automatic, the 2024 Mustang GT Convertible tips the scales at 1820 kilograms, which is some 75 kilograms more than the Fastback. Also, the convertible roof mechanism limits the luggage compartment to 322 litres of usable space. Due to higher weight, we can also expect a bit worse fuel economy.
The interior of the 2024 Mustang GT Convertible S650 is identical to the Fastback's, which means that there is the sporty, flat-bottomed steering wheel, massive digital instrument cluster with an infotainment screen powered by Ford's Sync 4 system. The system is easy to use and fully customizable, and it serves as a control unit for various features throughout the car. You can change the design of the instrument driving models, control the Active Exhaust and so on.
In terms of colours, the 2024 Mustang GT Convertible shares the same 11-color palette, graphics package and wheel designs. However, the MagneRide, Recaro seats and GT Appearance Pack are unavailable on GT Convertible models, only on Fastback.
