Although the Ford GT LM Edition appeared a few months ago,

But now it looks like Ford isn’t done with this concept car.

With the unveiling of the 2023 Ford GTM KIV,

The ultimate racing car for the most limited family, only 67 cars have ever appeared in the world.

The 2023 Ford GT Mk IV is built as a tribute to the legendary 1967 Ford GT40 Mk IV that the company sent to race at the Le Mans 24 Hours in France. And then managed to win the championship back home in the USA again after they had won that event the previous year, in 1966 in a GT40 Mk II (Ford vs. Ferrari).

And for the above reasons it is therefore not surprising that this special edition Ford GT will be built to make it to race for a specific field. The kind that say you have absolutely no right to run on public roads unless you first ask the police for permission

So what we can immediately see from the exterior of this model is that it comes with a carbon shell . It has been completely redesigned so it is more suitable for field use The complete front hood assembly with center air duct where a little later it will meet the NACA Duct air intake and moved down further you will find the large air trap for blowing air into the radiator. Surrounded by clove fins and a large wing to limit airflow that might get under the car

Not only is this in the side of the wheel arch as well as having bumpers that bulge out more than normal from the car ‘s body line , the second half of it is also left open. To dissipate tire heat and ventilate from under the vehicle in front to the edge of the door itself as it is pulled to continue in line with the edge of the wheel arch. This is so the design engineers can position the skirt on the side of the vehicle. With air-wrapped fins behind the large wheel arches

Even the vents in front of the rear wheel arches vent another set of radiators and it is also much wider and larger compared to the normal body because this time it has been opened on the perpendicular to the wheel assembly than ever before.

Equally outstanding is the rear view of the car that is almost nothing

It is the same in addition to the position and taillight in the shape of a donut with the exhaust pipe positioned in the middle of which the exhaust pipe has been changed to a simple round pipe. But immediately he saw that it was accompanied by a fierce voice

And if you look at the surrounding details further we will see that also its rear body parts have been designed with a heavy focus on aerodynamics, not missing the front of the car both rear wheel arches that have been designed with long fins covering the tail light frame, massive rear diffuser assembly like the GT ‘s massive rear spoiler And the hood with cooling vents on the side. At the top is a scoop to trap air in the filter as well.

2023 Ford GT Mk IV

As for the technical details of the car, Ford Performance is directly responsible for this car project. She did not reveal much of this information. Aside from just a rough statement that the 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 will be revamped. So you can produce more power for about 800 horsepower

The suspension has been retuned. Multimatic’s adaptive spool valve (ASV) is also added for maximum control on the track surface. Like a set of wheels with flaps that suck air out of the wheel arches. Mounted with a large rubber slick with a longer wheelbase

And as mentioned above, this version of the Ford GT Mk IV will only be produced in 67 units worldwide. The camp has revealed that booking a car will not be on a waiting list. But it is a set of properties. Any customer is suitable to own the most exclusive racers

The announcement of the names of the 63 lucky customers will happen in the first quarter of next year. Before the car is actually delivered in the middle of the year (As for the other 4 cars, I don’t know why the owner’s name hasn’t been made public. But it’s possible Ford might keep them to themselves. For competition or get into the museum and show at their various shows)

In addition to the owner qualifications that must be ready, you will also need to prepare the funds to own it.

At US$1.7 million or about 59 million baht, which is the price before tax. and any transportation costs
