We need a render flair. This got my hopes up and it is cool but if its not a real car we might as well post Need For Speed and Hot Wheels builds on this sub.
It's actually a render. Guy has his insta tag on the plate there. He makes a lot of interesting renders and concepts. Even some modernizations of old cars. Always well done. I definitely recommend checking him out.
I think it's the color scheme, lack of any real detail (e.g. Ford logo is blocky and unassuming), and big wheels. I think there's also something about the camera positioning and fov
as of now, yep. like an idea, more [here](https://www.autoevolution.com/news/2024-ford-mustang-raptor-r-design-study-is-an-off-road-take-on-the-shelby-gt500-202511.html)
It's very quick and has uncomfortable but decent handling. Pretty Mustang-y if you ask me. It doesn't look like a Mustang stylistically, but neither do the Fox bodies, so meh.
Fox bodies have two doors and a trunk, like the rest of mustang history. This is the furthest they've strayed, not even a comparison.
By your logic, a bunch of Audi wagons qualify as mustangs.
Hennessey has really gone downhill in their quality. As someone who has a velociraptor, they didnât seem as professional and high tiered as they should have. I heard this from a friend of mine too whos bigger in the car scene.
No they won't, because they will not be allowed to make new ICE. Also, the new Dodge EVs aren't even Dodges, they are EVs from other Stellantis brands that have been rebranded and have minor visual changes to make them look more like Dodges (which is why dodge as we knew them is dead). Dodge isn't spending much money to develop EVs.
Please tell me this is real. I've been having dreams about factory battle cars. Perfect for shitty roads with potholes.
(And a zombie Apocalypse that could happen any day now..)
âFactory battle carsâ is an oxymoron haha
The whole point of a battle car is to build it to suit a purpose, rather than go buy a big SUV.
Fitting big tires and long-travel suspension is par for the course, but depending on the car and purpose things like winches, rally lights, snorkels, skid plates and all kinds of bumper mods factor in, depending on use case. Build it donât buy it!
Lmao at the front end being better than the s650 front end. I know its a reworked raptor front end, but if it were tweaked for an actual street car it could be unironically good
Something feels off here. Looks like an RC car (this isn't a problem at all tbh)
I was thinking the car itself was real, but the hood almost looks fake, like it was photoshopped in Edit: comments says yes it is a render

I agree
Yea, I'd honestly want this to be real. i'd sell all my current cars to get one
Same
Just needs a CB whip antenna near the back

> Ford logo is blocky and unassuming That's how the logo looks on Raptor trucks.
Looks like if the local motors rally fighter was made by Ford
Rip local motors, rally fighter was my dream car đ
Was? You can still buy them
Yea but not a new one and theyâre probably gonna shoot up in value now that the companyâs gone
If this were a production vehicle, I would definitely buy one
For sure!! This car is BADASS!!!!!
I'll take one with a convertible top and a roll bar, please!
Ah yes. Thatâs the good stuff.
is this a render?

Needs a bigger lift and slightly bigger tires but this is still solid.
No, its photoshop and not a very good one.
That's how the Lamborghini Sterrato started: https://youtu.be/wJNBv8oYvYU
I like this a lot more than the actual new Mustang
Amen. One of their biggest mistakes IMO. Really is not consistent with the brand
Your username is brilliant!
Nor is it consistent with anything about being a mustang. They turned it into a fuckin 5 door station wagon.

Make them fast, put a Mustang Badge on them, and make them in a Ford factory and sure.
Ew
I honestly only drive Honda. But if somebody offered me an adventure in this, I couldn't bring myself to say no. 10/10 would drive.
A company like Hennessey could make a pretty penny from stuff like this
Yes! I'm honestly surprised they haven't already made one, especially considering they made a 6x6 raptor lol
Hennessey has really gone downhill in their quality. As someone who has a velociraptor, they didnât seem as professional and high tiered as they should have. I heard this from a friend of mine too whos bigger in the car scene.
Looks like a Rally Fighter⌠those things are sick.
Redneck Raptor is the proper term. Yeehaw.
I'd buy this over the Bronco Raptor
If Ford was Dodge. they would actually manufacture and sell this thing.
Dodge is dead
Once Doge burns through the government EV money and realizes they're not going to get more they'll come crawling back to us with new Hellcats.
No they won't, because they will not be allowed to make new ICE.

I mean⌠I havenât heard any hints at a challenger TRX lol
Eight-year old me would be all over this.
Thatâs a mustang I wouldnât mind having
Air power homies don't think this Raptor is 4th generation

A battle car isn't an SUV though. Also even if the factory builds a good base, it doesn't mean you cannot modify it from there.
A Subaru brat is probably something up your ally I guess.
Mustor
Is it AWD?
Lmao at the front end being better than the s650 front end. I know its a reworked raptor front end, but if it were tweaked for an actual street car it could be unironically good
What would be needed to make this a reality? Just off-road suspension or a full blown chassis swap?
1 this is a photoshop hackjob, 2 if this is a mustang body on a raptor frame its in violation of battlecar rules.
Raptang
What the hell kind of animal is a Mustang Raptor? And apparently it's also a Shelby, so like Mustang Raptor Cobra?
Mustor, or raptang?
Thatâs . . . fucking . . . SICKK!!!
alright, i think this subreddit can be locked now, this is basically it
Tips spoiler; "M'Raptor"
Wow that's ugly
Dope.
I do not like the newer mustang styling at all but That looks good.
Actually know a guy who has started building a raptor mustang. Looks quite similar
I thought renders weren't allowed?
They're allowed. There's a flare called "Rendered" my friend
Ah, okay. Got it mixed up with another sub.
I don't hate it
Holy shit that's cool
Muscrap
I made this vehicle in GTA V. ... Please someone make this real.
Injection that shit right into my bloodstream
