Engine 315

The previous 5.4 litre Boss V8 has done FPV proud and has been instrumental in the revival of the GT nameplate. However as it was unable to meet the strict Euro IV regulations that came into effect on 1st July 2010, a new engine needed to be sourced. Nicknamed "Coyote" the 5.0 litre all aluminium V8 was first seen in North America's Mustang GT in December 2009, however it has been substantially modified in FPV's V8 engine plant in Victoria for the Australian market.

315 kW (DIN) @ 5750rpm
545 Nm (DIN) @ 2000 - 5500rpm

The GS nameplate will now take pride of place in FPV's model line-up. The GS is available in both sedan and ute variants and forms the base models in the FPV Euro IV V8 range.
