In the spirit of continuous evolution, the twin-turbo 3.5-liter
EcoBoost V6 engine received an additional 13 horsepower
accompanied by a broader torque band, revised calibration
and mechanical upgrades such as gallery-cooled pistons and
higher-energy ignition coils. Other highlights include larger
intercoolers to keep charge air temperatures lower and the
standard Akrapovic titanium exhaust.
The 1966 Ford GT40 racecar weighed 2,682-pounds; keep in
mind, it was a race car, unequipped with many features we
deem necessary today. The 2020 model, equipped with all the
modern creature comforts we expect a road car to have, is just
3,354-pounds.
Offered during the 2022 Palm Beach Auction, this particular
2020 Ford GT, Chassis No. 40, is a limited-edition Carbon
Series and will sell with No Reserve.
Power is derived from a mid-mounted 3.5-liter twin-
turbo EcoBoost V6 engine factory rated with 660hp. The
engine is mated to a 7-speed Getrag dual-clutch automatic
transmission.
