Introducing the 2023 Ford GT Mk IV, the first-ever GT-series car built from a Carbon Fiber body and a Twin-turbo EcoBoost V6. In addition to its incredible power, this high-performance GT boasts a special connection to the famed Le Mans race. This makes the car a worthy competitor to other high-end sports cars on the market.
Price
Taking a look at the 2023 Ford GT Mk IV, you can’t help but feel that it’s one of the most advanced vehicles on the market today. That’s thanks to the powertrain, aerodynamic upgrades, and other tweaks that Ford has incorporated into this car.
This model will be the last track-only supercar made by Ford. It will have a unique body design, a reworked powertrain, and extensive aerodynamic enhancements.
The most obvious changes to the car include a larger front spoiler, bigger side air intakes, and a massive fixed rear wing. It also features a carbon fiber roof scoop, Michelin tires, and racing cover plates. It will also come with a race-spec transmission.
The price of the 2023 Ford GT Mk IV will be $1.7 million. That’s a huge sum of money for a car that’s only going to be built in a limited number of 67 examples.
Carbon fiber body
Until recently, the Ford GT was the brand’s flagship sports car. It was the first all-American team to win the Le Mans 24 Hours. The third generation of the Ford GT, which debuted in 2016, has been a modern supercar based on the successful race car. It features an adaptive suspension, a twin-turbo EcoBoost V6 with an expected 800 horsepower, and racing transmission.
The 2023 GT Mk IV features a carbon fiber body and a longer wheelbase. It also has a new suspension and improved aerodynamics. The twin-turbo EcoBoost V6 has a higher displacement, and is targeted to produce 800 horsepower. The new GT Mk IV will be built in a limited number of 67 units. Each vehicle will be hand-built at the Multimatic factory in Markham, Ontario, Canada.
Twin-turbo EcoBoost V6
Despite the fact that the current road-going GT will cease production at the end of the 2023 model year, Ford has decided to honour the history of the Mk IV with the unveiling of a new special edition supercar. The car will be produced in a small series of 67 hand-built examples worldwide, with prices starting at $1.7 million.
Using a twin-turbo EcoBoost V6 engine, the new Ford GT will produce 800-plus horsepower. It will be mated to a full racing gearbox and wrapped in a hand-built long-tail body. This new model features an extended wheelbase and aerodynamic upgrades.
The new Ford GT Mk IV is being developed by Ford Performance in collaboration with Multimatic. The body is constructed from carbon fibre and has a host of aerodynamic components. The rear suspension has been reworked with the use of Multimatic’s Adaptive Spool Valve.
Limited production
Designed to be the ultimate track-only supercar, the 2023 Ford GT Mk IV has all the bells and whistles. It will be built in a limited number of units and features a unique powertrain and aerodynamic components. Compared to the previous GT Mk II, the new model will have a longer wheelbase and a more powerful EcoBoost engine. It also has a racing transmission. Moreover, it comes with a body-colored LED headlight.
Its special design includes an oversized wing and set of canards projecting from the front end, which will help it to perform better on the racetrack. The Ford GT Mk IV is a big step up in performance over the previous iteration and is expected to be the fastest Gen-3 car ever produced.
Le Mans connection
Earlier this year, Ford announced the next generation of its flagship GT, the Ford GT Mk IV. Designed as the final model in the current generation, the Mk IV features a custom chassis, powertrain, and aerodynamics to commemorate the 1967 Mk IV race car that won the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The new car is expected to hit 800 horsepower, making it one of the most powerful versions yet. It also comes with a specially-designed twin-turbo EcoBoost V6.
The new Ford GT Mk IV will feature a longer wheelbase, which helps improve handling. The chassis will be hand-built at Multimatic’s facility in Markham, Ontario, and will be available for a limited number of customers. This special edition will be built and shipped to a select group of clients in late spring 2023.
