The Contour SVT is a high-performance sedan that hit the market in 1998. It was part of the Ford SVT (Special Vehicle Team) line of vehicles designed to offer a more powerful and sporty driving experience. The Contour SVT featured a 2.5-liter V6 engine that produced 195 horsepower and 165 lb.-ft of torque, along with a sport-tuned suspension and upgraded brakes. One of the most significant features of the Ford Contour SVT was its handling (via Motor Trend).
It had a well-balanced chassis that allowed for nimble and responsive handling on both city streets and winding roads. The sport-tuned suspension provided a firm yet comfortable ride, and the upgraded brakes provided excellent stopping power. Additionally, the Contour SVT had a stylish and aerodynamic design that gave it a sleek and modern appearance. The Contour SVT was a high-performance sedan that offered a fun and exciting driving experience, making it a favorite among car enthusiasts. But performance advancements have kind of left it in the dust as a used car, making this once-popular car a tough sell nowadays.
