Is Ford making a 2023 Ford GT?
Yes Ford is making a 2023 Ford GT, unfortunately it will be the last year for the Ford supercar. The 2023 model year is the last and as such Ford seeks to pay homage to the classic vehicle in every possible way. For example, there are only 67 models being made in honor of the 1967 Le Mans race won by Gurney and Foyt. It also includes design cues from the Ford vehicles used in that Le Mans race. Unfortunately, this means that the 2023 Ford GT, known as the Ford GTMk IV, will not be seen on the road, as it is a track-only vehicle. With the GT going out in such fashion it starts at the extremely unaffordable price of 1.7 million dollars. Making it so that only a select few will have the 2023 GT sitting in their garage.
Is the Ford GT being Discontinued in 2023?
Yes, unfortunately the Ford GT is being discontinued in 2023. This vehicle will not make it into the new year for a wide variety of reasons, which mostly boil down to cementing the GT’s legacy as a supercar, and moving towards the new Mustang GT3 as the flagship supercar. Another big reason is that the Ford GT was only set to come back around for a few years to enable a solid comeback with plenty of handcrafted vehicles being built, it now retires again for the time being, maybe to come back at a later date.
How Much is the GT Mk4?
The Ford GT Mk IV will start at north of 1.7 million. Unfortunately this makes it quite unattainable for most car enthusiasts, and combined with the fact that only 67 models were made, it might mean a few less individuals are able to say they own the 2023 Ford GT. The high price is a result of the painstaking craftsmanship that is all done by hand through MultiMatic, the final year of the GT, and only 67 models being made.
What is the Top Speed of a Ford GT 2023?
The 2023 Ford GT Mk IV will be able to reach a top speed of 216 mpg. This is 5 mph higher than the 2023 Ferrari Daytona SP3 is able to reach. This makes the 2023 GT one of the quickest, and fastest supercars on the market. Powered by a 6 cylinder EcoBoost engine, it is able to put out more than 800 horsepower. If you are wondering about the fuel economy of this engine, then you might be asking the wrong questions. The real question is how fast is the Ford GT, and unfortunately the answer is not yet known. However, the GT has an estimated 0 – 60 mph of 2.5 seconds. For reference, it takes the Bugatti Chiron the same amount of time to get up to speed. The 2023 Ford GT is the definition of a supercar, being nigh unattainable and only being made for one year, this vehicle is as exclusive as it gets.
