Ford Mustang Cobra Jet 1400 is an all-electric dragster - Business Insider

Ford's newest dragster prototype, the Ford Mustang Cobra Jet 1400, is all electric.Ford believes it'll set a quarter-mile run in the low eight-second range, which can easily beat Ford's fastest gas-powered Cobra Jet dragster.If you've ever been to a drag strip, a couple of things will be familiar to the senses: the acrid tang of race fuel and the ear-shattering scream of race engines.

"Cobra Jet" isn't just a name Ford pulled out of a random text generator, either. It's an homage to the original Cobra Jet dragsters from the late 1960s, with the original FE 428-cubic-inch V8-powered Cobra Jet built in 1968.

Cobra Jet, powered by a supercharged V8, was touted at the time as Ford Performance's "quickest drag racing Mustang ever, capable of covering a quarter-mile in the mid-eight-second range."While the overall quarter-mile drag record is still held by a vehicle with an internal-combustion engine, EVs do have a unique advantage over their gasoline-powered counterparts.

The sound was reason we fell in love with Ford Mustang in the first place. Come on!
