About the Mustang Boss 302 LS

The 2012 Ford Mustang Boss 302 LS is a rear-drive naturally aspirated muscle car of 1,652 kg with 437 bhp, which works out at 265 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 265 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 1.99 s. Against the 2,929 cars in the set it is the 802nd quickest to 60 mph, and the 5th quickest of the 109 Fords here. Its 113.9 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 8 of 10 published acceleration figures for this car.

Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Ford Mustang Boss 302 LS is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 8 of its 10 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-09-01. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
