Ford GT production extended by two years

Ford has officially announced that it will be extending production of the GT supercar by two more years. This decision has been taken after seeing huge demand for the Ford GT globally.

The American automaker had introduced the new Ford GT at the 2015 North American International Auto Show. It was announced that only 500 units will be produced over the next two years. But the automaker received more than 7,000 applications globally. This motivated Ford to extend production of the GT for fulfilling the demand of a few more customers.

The company has made it clear that the third year of production will be for the people who were kept on the waiting list during the first application process. New applicants and those who weren't shortlisted previously will be addressed in the fourth year of production. This new application window will open in early 2018, while those who had applied previously but didn’t make it to the final list will just need to update their request to be considered for the new application screening.

The Ford GT is a carbon fibre supercar that is powered by a twin-turbocharged 3.5-litre EcoBoost V6 engine that delivers more than 592 BHP.
