complete vehicle, sweating the details such as the sound of the exhaust,
the quality of the interior materials, and the functionality and the
comfort of the seats, to make sure that the driver enjoys not only
exceptional performance, but an outstanding driving environment as well.
In the Shelby GT500, that philosophy is expressed by a sophisticated

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 and product planners, 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 more than 200000 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, the SVT Focus, Ford GT, Shelby GT500,
GT500KR and the F-150 SVT Raptor.
We are proud and passionate about what we do, and we’re glad you have
made us your choice.
