1966 brought about the era of the “Rent-A-Racer” car and it began with the Shelby GT350H. The “H” stands for Hertz, and the company provided customers with the unique opportunity to drive elite, high performance vehicles that could not be accessed anywhere else. The 2022 Shelby GT500H Mustangs pay tribute to that original, legendary 1966 Shelby GT350H. All of the 2022 Shelby Mustang Hertz models have custom styling enhancements to celebrate the predecessor’s rich performance heritage. Set off with gold “Le Mans” dual racing stripes and set of special rocker stripes, these Mustangs will also come with Hertz Edition and Shelby 60th anniversary emblems. Its supercharged 5.2 liter V-8 engine is gold-hued for Hertz's livery and roars past at an astounding 900 horsepower. The 2022 Mustang drives with a powerful, stealth-like grace reminiscent of its badge: the cobra snake. AFX displays this Mustang’s unique design with a high-flying rear wing, intricate grill and muscular but sleek, sloping body. With striking gold stripes atop a shining black, this car will turn anyone’s head.
