Ford's updated electric SuperVan 4.2 is gunning for a Pikes Peak record.
As the .2 nomenclature suggests, this latest take on the electric Ford Transit racer has been thoroughly reworked from when we last saw it. Gone is the original quad motor setup, which provided the original concept with as near as 2000 horsepower as makes no difference. Instead, a single electric motor now handles both front wheels, which Ford says helps get mass out of the car while improving overall distribution.
This includes a larger front splitter, new side skirts down the flanks, and an immense diffuser package out back. Above the diffuser sits a new rear wing setup, which is now a double decker unit providing over 4400 pounds of downforce at 150 mph. That should come in handy as driver Romain Dumas attempts to get this thing to the top of Pikes Peak with haste. Other adjustments to the SuperVan 4.
