The crazy van has a Ford Transit with 2000 horsepower.
[car home Modified Planet] has such a van. Since it came out, every generation has been replaced with the top racing chassis and various super-running engines at the same time. When Ford’s engineers released themselves on an unconstrained project, the craziest official modification case in the world came out. It is Ford’s SuperVan. At this week’s Goodwood Speed Festival, Ford released a brand-new Ford (|) (the fourth generation SuperVan).
In 1971, Ford introduced the first generation SuperVan. Ford combined the chassis of the Ford GT with Ferrari in Le Mans Grand Prix and the middle 435-horsepower V8 engine with the body of the first generation Ford Transit van, and got an explosive van with a top speed of 150 miles per hour (about 240 kilometers per hour) (in 1971, the top speed of many sports cars could not exceed 200 kilometers per hour) However, due to the direct use of the original first-generation Transit body, although this Supervan often poses a high-front, low-back and imposing starting posture on the track, it can’t create amazing lap times because of Van’s high center of gravity in the corner.
The second generation of SuperVan went to the world in 1984. After learning from the experience of the first generation of SuperVan that its center of gravity is too high and its weight is too heavy, it has a custom-made fiberglass body, and the top C-100 chassis in Ford racing car makes this car comfortable in corners. After having a powerful racing chassis and frame, Ford’s "crazy" engineers fitted it with a 3.9L DFL V8 star engine of Cosworth DFV series, with a maximum horsepower of 582 HP and an acceleration of 0-100 km/h in only 3.6 seconds.
In 1994, the third generation SuperVan came out, which had the appearance of Transit)Mk5 and shared 650 horsepower Cosworth V8 with F1. However, after these three generations of SuperVan, Ford did not launch a sequel. Until now, Ford released a brand-new Ford Pro Electric SuperVan at this week’s Goodwood Speed Festival, and the fourth generation SuperVan immediately became the craziest SuperVan so far. It can even be said that this is the craziest van in the world, and there is no one.
This new generation of SuperVan has a pure electric power system. The whole power system was secretly developed by Ford Performance and Austrian racing company STARD. Based on the latest E-Transit Custom, the new car will have a 50 kWh battery pack and four electric motors. The maximum power can reach an astonishing 1973 horsepower. You should know that the world’s top super-running Bugatti Chiron Super Sport has only 1600 horsepower. This also allows this crazy truck to accelerate to 100 km/h in 2 seconds. It is worth mentioning that it takes only 45 minutes for such a powerful power system to be fully charged.
The interior has almost nothing to do with the truck. The roll cage is covered with the whole carriage, FIA bucket seats, racing steering wheel and the same large vertical touch screen as the Mustang Mach-E, which can control the power system and various driving modes of SuperVan in addition to the car entertainment function. Interestingly, SuperVan’s cargo pulling space has been preserved. Imagine how interesting it is to drive a 2000-horsepower truck to pull goods.
Compared with its performance, the appearance of this Ford van can be described as a complete transformation-it has become a real racing car. Although it can still be recognized as a van at a glance, SuperVan’s ultra-wide fenders, huge air intakes, front and rear exaggerated spoilers and diffusers, rims with racing tires and corner headlights connected by light bars all show its image for the track all the time.
Write at the end:
Why did you build such a "four unlike" model? Because from 1971, Ford hoped to build a model that could enhance its Transit image, increase sales and change people’s impression of mediocrity and boredom of traditional box trucks, so this series of SuperVan was born. But it is strange that people who buy box trucks should not pay more attention to loading capacity and practicality. So can such a performance beast really increase the potential users of this car? With the electrification of the fourth generation model, it can be seen that Ford is expressing to the world that even if it enters the world of electric vehicles, its technology is still far ahead.
