30 1980s Cars That Changed The Automotive Industry

26. Ford Mustang SVO

Ford’s Special Vehicle Operations (SVO) department introduced a special Mustang SVO for 1984. It featured a 2.3-liter turbocharged four-cylinder with 175 HP. And that was quite the power output for a small engine. As a light car, the ’84 Mustang SVO was hot at the moment.

The package included four-wheel disc brakes and a stiffer suspension as well as sharper steering. All that transformed the little Mustang into quite the capable sports car. For 1985, the SVO upped the power to an impressive 205 HP. That turned the eyes of the motoring public to the third-generation Mustangs.
