Ford Racing Sets Jan. 15 Sneak Peek of All-New Road Car in Detroit

The preview aligns with Ford’s Red Bull F1 launch at Michigan Central Station to underscore a racing-to-road technology push.

Overview

  • Ford confirms an exclusive first look at an all-new Ford Racing production road car on January 15 at Detroit’s Michigan Central Station, outside the auto show venue.
  • The launch day will include Red Bull unveiling its 2026 Formula 1 liveries and a broader display of Ford’s NASCAR, Dakar and other racing programs.
  • Global director Mark Rushbrook says the model is intended to demonstrate how racing innovations are migrating into customer vehicles.
  • The vehicle’s identity remains unannounced, with reporting and spy shots pointing to possibilities such as a Mustang-based special, a GT-style halo or an off-road supercar.
  • CEO Jim Farley has previously floated an off-road supercar concept with about 1,000 hp, partial electrification and fully adjustable suspension, and analysts expect Multimatic to be involved if it is a low-volume build.
