Romain Dumas will drive the 1,972-hp electric van up the hill at the Goodwood Festival of Speed.
we get in the U.S. It was developed by Ford Performance and Ford's European design team, in partnership with Austrian electrified rallying specialist STARD, Ford said in a press release.
While it still has room for cargo behind the driver, the Supervan has little in common with a stock E-Transit Custom. The swollen body panels are composite, and the van rides on a purpose-built steel space frame with front and rear subframes housing unequal-length double wishbone suspension front and rear. Ford also fitted an array of onboard cameras to capture video of the van's high-speed runs.The van is powered by four electric motors, which send a combined 1,972 hp to all four wheels.
Charging is controlled from the stock in-cab touchscreen, which also allows for the selection of different drive modes, including Road, Track, Drag, Drift, and Rally. Ford also includes a pit-lane speed limiter, launch control, three-stage regenerative braking, and a"tire cleaning mode" that brakes the wheels on one axle while allowing the others to spin freely for spectacular burnouts.
This build isn't just about showing off, though. Ford is also trying to draw a connection between the data services it offers van-buying fleet customers and the telemetry acquisition of modern race cars. In both cases, data acquisition allows vehicles to be monitored remotely, Ford noted.The Supervan will climb the hill at Goodwood with Romain Dumas at the wheel.
