Leading the Ford performance lineup is the GT, an ultra-high-performance supercar that represents the ultimate exhibition of Ford’s design and engineering capabilities.
Every aspect of the GT reflects an element of the company’s product design and development expertise. A sleek, aerodynamic shape helps to reduce drag and optimize downforce for improved performance and fuel efficiency. Ford’s use of advanced lightweight materials, highlighted in last year’s Ford Lightweight Concept, similarly helps to improve both performance and efficiency. The twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 shows what is possible when the technologies behind Ford’s EcoBoost engines are pushed to their limit.
Sharing the stage with the GT is the Focus RS, the third generation of Ford’s high-performance road car and the 30th vehicle to bear the legendary RS badge. Pioneering innovative Ford Performance All-Wheel Drive, the Focus RS delivers class-leading cornering speed, optimized aerodynamics and unbridled driving enjoyment. Advanced aerodynamics and a high-efficiency 2.3-liter EcoBoost engine help the RS to set new benchmarks for driving exhilaration on the road and track.
Rounding out the Ford performance trio at Auto Shanghai is the Focus ST, the most advanced ST yet. With a sleek, aggressive new look, a lower, wider stance, and new chassis control technologies, the Focus ST delivers a thrilling fun-to-drive experience. Tuned suspension and steering provide enhanced performance, while inside, drivers will find a more refined cockpit with a clearer and more intuitive dashboard layout.
