Passion for performance

At Ford, we're committed to engineering the best performance vehicles possible. That commitment dates back to 1901 when Henry Ford and a small team of engineers developed a race car called "Sweepstakes". It featured innovations such as mechanical fuel injection and insulated spark plugs - those breakthroughs helped Henry win the one and only race in which he ever competed.  He used the notoriety - and winnings - of that win to start Ford Motor Company eventually.

That passion and ingenuity has powered wins from Daytona to Le Mans and from Indianapolis to Baja.  Our success on the track has fueled the development of our cars on the road. Today, drivers can savor the performance of the Edge ST, Fiesta ST, Focus ST, Focus RS, Mustang GT350, Raptor and, of course, the legendary Ford GT.

Performance lineup

MUSTANG SHELBY GT350®

The Shelby GT350® offers precision-tuned suspension and handling that's perfect when your idea of fun is rather twisted. The upgraded MagneRide® Damping System monitors and adjusts itself one thousand times per second. The entire car was designed, engineered and built so that the springs, sway bars and dampers work together as one finely tuned unit. We also added lightweight chassis components and, for 2020, a set of Michelin® Pilot® Sport Cup 2 tires with a Shelby GT350-specific tread pattern.

MUSTANG SHELBY® GT500®

Shelby GT500® is the most powerful street-legal Ford vehicle of all time. It combines a supercharged 5.2-liter V8 engine and a TREMEC 7-speed transmission for awe-inspiring power. The GT500 was designed with fighter jets in mind - resulting in a precise and aerodynamic exterior and a top speed of 186 mph. With an ergonomic build and superior powertrain, the GT500 takes performance to new heights as the fastest Mustang ever on a straight line and around curves.

F-150 RAPTOR

450 HP
The monster that was born in Baja. It generates jaw-dropping horsepower and torque from its high-output 3.5L EcoBoost engine and 10-speed transmission. It rides on 3.0-inch Fox Racing SHOX™. And Raptor's class-exclusive available beadlock-capable wheels let you deflate for ultimate traction without letting go of the tires. It's part truck, part rocket.

FORD GT

647 HP
This is what cutting-edge innovation looks like. From its 3.5L EcoBoost technology to its ultra-efficient aerodynamics, the Ford GT is the culmination of everything great we do at Ford. It's what led to our win at Le Mans. It's the same passion for innovation that can be seen throughout our entire vehicle lineup.

EXPLORER ST

The Explorer ST blends utility with bold performance. It features an athletic stance, unique ST badging and a bold grille. And with the power to back it up, the ST combines a muscular 3.0L EcoBoost® engine with twin turbos equating to 400 hp plus 415 lb.-ft. of torque and a top speed of 143 mph
