The automotive world witnessed a significant milestone in June 2025 as Ford dramatically ramped up production of its flagship Mustang GTD supercar. Ford ramped up production in June and built 31 examples, which is almost double the number of all previous months combined, reaching a total of 47 units manufactured this year. This substantial increase marks a turning point in the delivery timeline for one of the most anticipated performance vehicles of the decade.
Production Timeline Reveals Dramatic June Acceleration
The 2025 Ford Mustang GTD’s production journey has been a carefully orchestrated process, with manufacturing beginning earlier this year. Multimatic produced two Ford Mustang GTD models in January, none in February, three in March, and one in April, followed by 10 Ford Mustang GTD models last month in May. However, June’s output of 31 units represents a quantum leap in manufacturing capacity.
Manufacturing Partnership Excellence
The production surge reflects the successful collaboration between Ford and Multimatic, the Canadian engineering firm responsible for hand-assembling these exceptional machines. Ford builds the GTD in two different stages. Production starts at the Ford Flat Rock Assembly Plant in Flat Rock, Michigan. Then, the parts are sent to Multimac in Markham, Ontario, Canada, for being hand-assembled. This partnership leverages Multimatic’s expertise in building ultra-high-performance vehicles, including their work on the Mercedes-AMG ONE hypercar.
Meeting Overwhelming Demand
The production acceleration comes in response to extraordinary customer interest. Ford revealed that it received more than 7,500 applications for the 2025 and 2026 Mustang GTD during last year’s application window, but will not be able to deliver that many. With only 1,000 total units planned for production, the exclusive nature of this supercar has created unprecedented demand among automotive enthusiasts and collectors.
Technical Supremacy Driving Market Appeal
Powertrain Perfection
At the heart of the GTD’s appeal lies its phenomenal powertrain specifications. The supercharged 5.2-litre V8 produces an SAE-certified 815 horsepower (826 PS) and 664 pound-feet of torque (900 Nm). This represents the most powerful production Mustang in history, establishing new benchmarks for American muscle cars.
The engine features several groundbreaking technologies for a production Mustang. The supercharged 5.2-litre V8 improves on previous Mustang engines, benefiting from Mustang’s first-ever dry-sump oil system that can help keep the engine lubricated through sustained and demanding cornering. Additionally, that dry-sump oil system also enables a slightly elevated maximum engine speed of 7,650 rpm, up 100 rpm from the previous 5.2-litre V8 maximum.
Performance Credentials
The GTD’s performance capabilities justify its exclusive status and premium pricing. Beyond the power needed to achieve its 202 mph (325 km/h) top speed, Mustang GTD also features a Drag Reduction System that can change the angle of the rear wing and activate flaps under the front of the car. Most impressively, the Mustang GTD has already made history, as the first sports car from an American automaker with an under-7-minute Nürburgring lap time.
Advanced Engineering and Manufacturing Process
Sophisticated Suspension Technology
The production surge demonstrates Ford’s ability to manufacture highly complex automotive systems at scale. Multimatic DSSV (Dynamic Suspension Spool Valve) technology… in a production car? Believe it. A state-of-the art suspension system underpins the Mustang® GTD. The sophisticated suspension system includes an advanced rear suspension and adaptive suspension dampers provide a precise response to road conditions.
Weight Optimization Strategies
Every aspect of the GTD’s construction focuses on performance optimization. Every component and system within the 2025 Mustang® GTD is designed to reduce weight, enhance handling, and increase speed. Available forged magnesium wheels provide an excellent strength-to-weight ratio that’s ideal for the demands of racing. The use of standard carbon fiber body panels, driveshaft and available underbody aerodynamic tray help reduce weight and improve performance.
Market Impact and Pricing Strategy
Premium Positioning
The GTD commands a substantial premium that reflects its exclusive nature and advanced engineering. The 2025 Ford Mustang GTD officially starts at $327,960 after destination and gas guzzler fees. With options, with a $10,000 carbon-fiber roof and $1500 red brake calipers, the GTD in question comes out to $339,460 out the door.
Investment Potential
The limited production run and exceptional performance capabilities position the GTD as a potential collector’s item. Ford has implemented measures to prevent speculation, requiring a commitment requiring that owners keep their cars for a minimum of two years, just like the Ford GT, which is a stipulation that aims to prevent folks from flipping those vehicles for a profit.
Delivery Schedule and Customer Experience
Exclusive Configurator Access
Approved customers gain access to specialized ordering tools. The lucky folks that have the means to purchase a Ford Mustang GTD and were approved to do so have access to a special configurator for that model, allowing for extensive customization options that reflect the vehicle’s bespoke nature.
Interior Craftsmanship
The GTD’s interior showcases premium materials and innovative design elements. Available in multiple colors, the premium cockpit includes soft-touch leather and exterior-mirroring carbon fiber details throughout. Hand-tailored RECARO® seats feature laser-etched Miko™ suede and GTD-specific details. Uniquely, available 3D-printed paddle shifters, the rotary dial shifter, and serial plate are made from materials sourced from retired Lockheed Martin™ F-22™ fighter jets.
Future Production Outlook
The June production surge indicates Ford’s commitment to meeting delivery schedules while maintaining the exclusivity that defines the GTD. With deliveries of the ultimate road going pony car are currently slated to begin in the second quarter, customers can expect their vehicles to arrive as promised.
The dramatic increase in production output demonstrates that Ford and Multimatic have successfully scaled their manufacturing processes to meet the complex demands of building a street-legal race car. As the most powerful and capable Mustang ever created, the GTD represents the pinnacle of American automotive engineering and the successful execution of Ford’s vision to create a world-class supercar.
