LAS VEGAS – April 18, 2024 – Shelby American, a wholly owned subsidiary of Carroll Shelby International Inc. (CSBI:PK), today shocked the performance community when it introduced the limited edition 2024 Shelby Super Snake on the international Barrett-Jackson stage in Palm Beach, Florida. One of the most highly anticipated vehicles of 2024, the 830+ horsepower sports car was designed to be the highest performing Shelby Super Snake in history.

“We designed the Shelby Super Snake to be the pinnacle of our performance cars based on Ford’s world-class Mustang sports car,” said Joe Conway, CEO of Shelby American. “It follows Carroll Shelby’s vision that each generation of car improves the breed. By collaborating with Ford Motor Company, Whipple and other top companies, our Las Vegas team created our best Shelby Super Snake yet.”

The 5.0L V8 powered Shelby Super Snake is offered in both 480 and 830 (supercharged) horsepower versions, giving it super car capabilities. The suspension was tuned for sharper turn in and the exhaust for better air flow, while the brakes and
cooling were enhanced to leverage the powertrain’s potential.

“The roots of the Shelby Super Snake began with the race bred Mark IV Ford GT, which won Le Mans in 1966,” said Gary Patterson, President of Shelby American. “That car’s engine was the inspiration for the first Shelby Super Snake, a one-off experimental built for high-speed testing on the track. Over the years, the Shelby Super Snake has evolved but continued to keep its ‘competition-edged’ personality. The 2024 Shelby Super Snake is pure American performance.”

This is Shelby American’s first car based on the new S650 Ford Mustang platform. The
2024 Shelby Super Snake demonstrates the perfect balance of form and function. “We set out to make the 2024 Ford Mustang the most technically sophisticated Shelby Super Snake in history,” said Vince La Violette, Shelby American Vice President of Operations and Senior Designer. “Through careful engineering, we were able to add much more power while working to keep the weight more balanced with a new aluminium hood and carbon fibre fenders that also redirect the wind for ultimate cooling. Our lightweight magnesium alloy wheels cut pounds off the rotating mass so
you can run deeper into and accelerate faster out of the corner. The featherweight carbon fibre tail wing keeps the retuned suspension firmly planted.”   

Shelby American has spent the past years designing its elite version of the car. Lessons learned through thousands of hours spent on the track, the dyno and design studio over the decades have made the 2024 Shelby Super Snake truly a special car.

“We have an unwavering commitment to the enthusiast,” said LaViolette “With the Super Snake’s competition heritage, we knew it was critical to dial up a car that is enjoyable during daily commutes and deeply rewarding during spirited driving. While the styling inside and out is certainly handsome, functionality drove every decision. This car checks all the boxes.”

The 2024 model roars with over 830+ horsepower from its supercharged 5.0L V8; available in either manual or automatic transmission for both fastback and convertible body styles. Only 250 total 2024 model cars will be available in the US, with international partners receiving limited numbers commensurate with their market.

Each vehicle from Shelby American is documented in the official Shelby Registry. With its own Individual CSM number. This registry collection dates back to the very first Shelby vehicle produced and is a living legacy of all Shelby vehicles produced, ensuring the collectability of these vehicles with verified authentication registered back to when each vehicle is produced.

“The 2024 Shelby Super Snake is visually stunning,” said Patterson. “It is such a contrast in styling from European marques yet has the performance capabilities to compete with them at half their price. With only 250 available in the US, it will be ultra-rare.”

The Shelby Super Snake is offered through Shelby selected Ford dealers in the United States. And International Official Mod shops around the world.

For Australia, Mustang Motorsport based In Ferntree Gully, Victoria is the Australian Official Shelby Mod Shop. Working closely with Shelby American In Las Vegas, Mustang Motorsport have been importing and upgrading popular Shelby Vehicles for Australian customers for over 18 years. This relationship continues with the exclusive release of the 2024 Super Snake with a limited production run for Australia.

“We are excited for the next generation Shelby Super Snake and can’t wait to see them on our Aussie roads” said James Johnson, Director of Mustang Motorsport. “If Mustang enthusiasts are looking for the most capable high-performance Mustang you can’t beat a Shelby!”

Australian Shelby Super Snakes will be built on a customer-supplied, Australian-delivered base Mustang GT and will receive the 830+ Horsepower package supplied with ADR compliance and 3 year/60,000km limited driveline warranty.

Production is expected to begin mid-year in the USA with Australian Production to follow late 2024. Pricing in Australia has not yet been finalized, to be announced by Mustang Motorsport at a later date.
