“The response to our Ford GT has been unprecedented, with demand outstripping supply more than six-to-one,” said Hermann Salenbauch, director, Ford Performance. “By extending the Ford GT production run for a limited period, we’re able to maintain the exclusivity of the ultra-desirable supercar while offering the ownership experience to a greater number of customers.”

Production of the Ford GT, by Multimatic in Markham, Ontario, began in December 2016, following the announcement of a limited run of 1,000 vehicles across four years. Powered by a 647 hp twin-turbocharged, 3.5-litre EcoBoost V6 engine, the Ford GT’s carbon fibre architecture and active aerodynamics help it to achieve a top speed of 347 km/h or 216 mph.
