in 2004 Ford launched the Ford GT, with similar outward appearance to the original 1960s GT 40. Designed by Camilo Pardo, the then head of Fordliving Legends studio, under J Mays, with Carroll Shelby the original designer of the Shelby GT 500 brought in to assist developement. The GT was wider than the GT40 and crucially 4 inches taller After six weeks from the unveiling of the GT40 concept, Ford announced a limited production run of the car. Three pre-production cars were shown to the public in 2003 as part of Ford's centenary celebrations, and delivery of the production version called simply the Ford GT began in Autumn of 2004. 4038 cars were built for the 2005 and 2006 model years with assembly in Norwalk, Ohio. Powered by a 5.4ltr supercharged version of the Ford Modular V8. Production halted before reaching the original stated 4,500 with 100 destined for Europe and a further 200 for Canada
The second generation Ford GT was previewed at the 2015 Frankfurt Motorshow in lieu of launch in December 2016. Designed by Chris Svensonn and assembled at Markham, Ontario, Canada. the car marked 50 years since the GT40 won the 1966 24 Hours of Le Mans and competed successfully in the 2016 24 Hours of Le Mans to better celebrate the anniversary, winning the LMGTE Pro class. The design of the new GT began with its aerodynamics package, related to an ultimate focus of the design team of creating a successful Le Mans race car. Low drag and aerodynamic efficiency were of primary importance in the development of the exterior of the car, with its powertrain taking secondary importance. Although a V8 and even a V12 engine were both considered, it was ultimately decided to use Ford's EcoBoost V6 engine due to the degrees of freedom that the compact engine gave designers. The car is powered by a 3,496 cc twin-turbocharged Ford EcoBoost V6 engine rated at 647 hp For the 2020 model year and beyond, this power output rating was increased to 660 hp
The car is powered by a 3,496 cc (3.5 L; 213.3 cu in) Twin-turbocharged Ford EcoBoost V6 engine generating a power output of 647 bhp, the engine shares many components with the F-150's 3.5 L V6 engine including the cylinder heads, block and dual fuel system, differences include larger turbochargers, an aluminum intake manifold, a custom dry sumped lubrication system, unique camshafts and higher strength rotating and timing drive components. Underpinning the GT is a carbon fiber monocoque bolted to aluminum front and rear subframes covered in carbon fiber body panels. The car also has a race inspired pushrod suspension system, active aerodynamics, dihedral (butterfly) doors. The windshield of the vehicle is made of Gorilla Glass manufactured by Corning, which is also used for manufacturing smartphone screens which is used to reduce weight.
Production began in December 2016, with a planned production rate of one car per day at Ford's new, low-volume assembly facility at Multimatic in Markham, Ontario, Canada with production schedualed to continue into October 2020. The cars produced for the 2017 and 2018 model years are reserved for selected buyers, the cars produced for the 2019 model year are for buyers who passed over in the initial selection process, and the cars produced for the 2020 model year are for normal customers
