SVT HISTORY
The Ford Special Vehicle Team (SVT) was
established in 1991 to“Polish the Ford Oval”by
creating low-volume, factory-produced vehicles
designed for those select few whose idea of driving
is a high-powered, passionate experience—not just
a means of getting from point A to point B.
In a move to support this spirited enthusiasm, Ford
Motor Company carefully integrated the wide array of
talent in the company into a small, cross-functional
group of engineers, product planners, and marketing
people, housed together under one roof with a
common mission: to create vehicles specifically
designed to meet the unique needs and desires of the
knowledgeable driving enthusiast.
Each of the over 100,000 SVT vehicles produced
since the 1993 model year has been designed and
developed with the four SVT Hallmarks in mind:
Performance, Substance, Exclusivity and Value.
These hallmarks have driven the SVT Mustang Cobra
and the Cobra R, the SVT F-150 Lightning , the SVT
Contour and the SVT Focus.
We are proud and passionate about what we do, and
we’re glad you have made us your choice.
