One of Ford’s biggest accomplishments is the Mustang lineup and we will never get enough of it on the road or even when it comes to the race course but now, we hear it is ready to take over another arena as the 2026 Ford Mustang Raptor.
If you are even mildly familiar with the automobile industry then you know along with the craze to turn many things electric even luxury car makers are now into the craze to make off-roading vehicles out of their best sellers.
Kinda like when the sitcom writer knows the show is a hit and decides to make a spin-off but they keep coming you lose track of but when it comes to off-roading vehicles fortunately we think, there are immense numbers of followers for it.
That’s what it looks like otherwise why would pioneering cars like the 911 or the Huracán Sterrato which have been a beauty on the tar hit the dirt?
Anyway, love it or hate it, you have to agree, the off-roading trend is not going to take off any time soon. We ain’t complaining though because when it comes to cars the more the merrier.
If you love the Ford Mustang and also off-roading adventures then this is candy land for you. The Raptor which has been already modifying many of Ford’s star players is set to do do its magic on the famous Mustang too.
We have not received an official release date for the 2026 Ford Mustang Raptor yet but given that Ford is busy with dropping the remodelled 2024 Mustang and the RTR version, we can expect this to hit the markets by 2026.
No price chart has been announced by Ford yet but you can expect it in the range of $90,000, well, that is what experts predict but you would have to wait a little longer to know for sure.

Even though we do not have it down to the dot, the rumours about the engine the 2026 Ford Mustang Raptor will get are heavy and it is said to get a 5.0 litre V8 engine.
The engine is set to deliver 500 horsepower with ten-speed automatic transmission while the manual ones will sit this one out.
While it is a must in every off-roading vehicle, there is nothing official but, yeah the 2026 Ford Mustang Raptor will not be getting a two-speed transfer case and that might be the only solution given the cramped-up space.

In terms of look, we are yet to find out how far Ford will go when it comes to its new 2026 Ford Mustang Raptor.
But if we take the 2024 Ford Mustang RTR Spec 2 as any indication, we might expect some massive remodelling for the 2026 Ford Mustang Raptor to fit the dirt roads.

If the rumours are to be believed, then we might also get another Mustang Variant namely Mustang Raptor R which will get engine upgrades with 5.2-litre V-8 and deliver 700 horsepower.
Well, as exciting as this sounds, we still have no idea about it, even the details we know about the 2026 Ford Mustang Raptor are higher when compared to this.
Given that the 2014 sixth generation Mustang dropped with the splined front hubs, many are just now realising that the Raptor Mustang must have been in the works for some time now.
