Ford GT 2016

Ford GT 2016

The biggest change is at the heart of the machine: a new, twin-turbo, 3.5-liter V-6 EcoBoost engine said to offer north of 600 horsepower. (That compares quite favorably to the 550 horsepower supercharged V-8 found in the last GT.) The engine is, of course, mounted in the middle, behind the seats to offer an ideal weight balance. However, it does not offer any of the trendy electric assist hybrid systems we've seen in other recent supercars such as the Porsche 918 or McLaren P1.

Ford didn't show much of the interior, but it's said to feature an "F1-style" steering wheel that offers buttons for all necessary controls. The instrument cluster similarly eschews any retro leanings, instead favoring a fully configurable and digital display.

 The Ford GT enters production in 2016, and while the company didn't give any hint at pricing, it's safe to say the thing won't be cheap. The previous GT hit dealers with a $140,000 price tag and often sold with a much higher premium, so don't be surprised if this one comes in even higher.
