Overview
- The first look is scheduled for January 15, 2026 at Michigan Central Station in Detroit during Ford Racing’s season launch event.
- Leaders describe the vehicle as an all-new production road car and “a testament” to integrating racing innovation into future Fords.
- The program launch will also showcase Ford’s 2026 motorsport slate, including Red Bull Ford Powertrains’ F1 entries, NASCAR efforts, GT3 Mustangs, and Dakar/Baja racers.
- Ford has not revealed specifications or the model’s identity, and reporting cites possibilities such as a GT successor, a Mustang-based halo, or an off-road supercar, with Jim Farley previously floating a roughly 1,000-hp concept with hybrid elements and adjustable suspension.
- Coverage highlights Ford’s history of low-volume halo projects with partners like Multimatic and notes recent Mustang GTD Nürburgring testing, though any connection to the January preview remains unconfirmed.
