Ford GT (2016 to 2022)
While the previous generation was a superfast road car, the current model is a racing car for the streets full of competition parts, tricks, and active aerodynamics. Ford wanted a car that would give them triumph at the 24 Hours of Le Mans for the first time after 1969. The new GT was a racing car from the start and a road car second. It competed in the 2016 Le Mans and won its class precisely 50 years after the first legendary GT40 win (via Ford).
The engine of the new GT is exciting. It’s a 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 with 656 hp, which gives the car a 0 to 60 mph time of 2.8 seconds and a top speed of 216 mph. What is interesting about it is the fact that the GT’s engine is almost the same as the 3.5 EcoBoost V6 from the F-150 pickup truck. Of course, there are a lot of different details. But the basic architecture, block, displacement, and turbo technology are the same.
