Underneath its sleek and aerodynamically optimized exterior, this Ford GT houses a formidable twin-turbocharged 3.5L EcoBoost V-6 engine, capable of delivering a staggering 660 horsepower. This power is seamlessly managed by a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, allowing the car to achieve breathtaking speeds with remarkable efficiency and control.

The Carbon Series distinction is not just a name; it reflects the extensive use of carbon fiber throughout the vehicle. From the passenger shell to the body panels, doors, hood, and rear fascias, this material not only reduces weight but also enhances the car’s overall performance and handling. The car’s aero-optimized design includes features like a speed-activated splitter and a deployable rear wing, further amplifying its racing pedigree.

The interior of this 2021 Ford GT is just as impressive, with fixed carbon fiber Sparco seats and a carbon-themed interior, offering a racing-inspired environment. Red brake calipers and glossed exposed carbon fiber wheels accentuate its sporty appearance, making it a true head-turner.
