Ford To Tease All-New Ford Racing Road Car on Jan. 15 as Red Bull F1 Era Begins
Ford frames the preview as evidence of racing technology moving directly into its road cars.
Overview
- Ford Racing will give an exclusive first look at an all-new production model during its 2026 season launch in Detroit on January 15, coinciding with the kickoff of Red Bull Ford Powertrains.
- Ford Racing chief Mark Rushbrook describes the car as a testament to transferring racing innovations into vehicles customers can buy.
- The company has not disclosed the vehicle’s format, with reporting speculating on a GT-style supercar, an off-road supercar, or a Mustang Raptor–inspired model.
- CEO Jim Farley has floated an off-road supercar concept targeting about 1,000 hp with adjustable suspension and possible partial electrification, but no specific program has been confirmed.
- Analysts cite Multimatic’s history building the Ford GT and Mustang GTD as a likely, though unconfirmed, path for limited-run production.
