The 2019 Ford GT is the next edition of an iconic sports car, the successor of the famous GT40. As its predecessor, that conquered 24 Hours of Le Mans four times in a row, this concept is there to race and achieve big things. Some of them are sprint 0-60 mph in 3 seconds or 220 mph top speed. This beast can also offer 650 hp and an astronomical price above $450,000.
But, once paid, the owner will be proud of its choice. But, the production models are limited and the real purpose of the 2019 Ford GT will be racing. Although street-legal, we won’t see too many of these cars out there.
2019 Ford GT Innovations
As always, the 2019 Ford GT will bring many stunning details and systems that makes this car so special. It is not easy to mention all of them. Furthermore, the edition for next season is not final yet, and Ford could implement last-second additions to the supercar.
Aerodynamics
It is all about the speed. The engine is the most important piece of the puzzle here. But, aerodynamics could be crucial sometimes. Low riding position can make difference. And when your car is just 50 mm above the asphalt, the center of gravity will definitely boost the performance. Well, the rear wing is what we already got used to. The 2019 Ford GT will definitely update this part to make the air flow goes smoother than ever.
2019 Ford GT Engine
All these advanced features are cool, but the heart of the 2019 Ford GT will be a proven 3.5-liter V-6 unit. Well, it is not the mill we can find on other models, such as F-150 truck. The powertrain gets a special treatment to deliver maximum power. If 650 hp is not enough, then maybe 560 pl-ft of torque could lure your attention.
The 2019 Ford GT will use a twin-turbo system with intercooler and aluminum blockheads. The 3.5-liter engine sends power through a 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox. It is an auto transmission with a manual mode. Rear-wheel drive is the only option for Ford GT.
2019 Ford GT Top Speed, Acceleration
The last version of the supercar could reach 60 mph in just 3 seconds. The 2019 Ford GT will cut at least 0.1. In this segment, it is like you improve a 15-second sprint to less than 10 seconds. For example, the Ford GT will be at 130 mph in 10 seconds. It will also need 140 feet to stop from 70 mph. Top speed of the last version was 216 mph and the new car could maintain this level.
2019 Ford GT Price
The cost of the 2019 Ford GT is very high. However, special treatment has its price, and the new model could go a step closer to $500,000 mark. We will be optimistic and say Ford is not going to exceed it with MSRP. But, for this price buyers will get a car that will make everyone turn around. Also, not many other fans are going to have it, thanks to the limited production. We still don’t know the exact amount, but we could see some racing vehicles on the market as well.
