What\u2019s New in the 2020 Ford GT Supercar? <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Is the 2020 Ford GT more powerful than the outgoing model? <\/strong>Yes \u2013 the new 2020 Ford GT will make 660 horsepower, signaling an increase of 13 horsepower from the 2017-19 Ford GT. Changes to the 2020 GT\u2019s EcoBoost engine include a broader torque band, revised engine calibration and the addition of gallery-cooled pistons and higher-energy ignition coils. New buttress air ducts increase airflow by 50%, while larger intercoolers help keep charge air temperatures cooler.  The 2020 Ford GT also trades up to a premium Akrapovi\u010d titanium exhaust, shaving off nine lbs. of weight over the previous system. The updated setup also creates a more resonant exhaust note from the EcoBoost engine. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What are the new GT appearance packages?<\/strong> <\/strong>GT owners will have two new unique appearance options to choose from this year: Liquid Carbon and the updated Gulf Racing Heritage Livery. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
