Lynx Motors Unveils Plans for Limited-Edition Ford GT-Based Hypercar

A high-performance street-legal hypercar inspired by the first-generation Ford GT is in the works, with Lynx Motors revealing plans for a limited run of just 28 units and an eye-watering $1.7 million price tag.

Lynx Motors, known for modernizing automotive icons, has not yet named the vehicle, but the company confirmed that it will be powered by a twin-turbocharged V8 producing at least 1,200 horsepower. Speculation suggests that an even more powerful version—potentially featuring an engine developed by renowned American tuner Roush Performance—could push output beyond 1,500 horsepower.

Production of the hypercar is set to take place at the Graham Rahal Performance facility in Zionsville, Indiana. Lynx Motors aims to blend the spirit of the original Ford GT with cutting-edge performance enhancements, creating one of the most extreme road-going versions of the legendary model.

The original Ford GT, launched in 2005, was a modern tribute to the legendary GT40, which famously dethroned Ferrari at Le Mans in the 1960s. Just 4,000 examples of the first-generation GT were produced before Ford discontinued the model after two years. A second-generation Ford GT, introduced in 2016, adopted a smaller twin-turbo V6 but pushed performance to new heights, with only 1,350 units built.

If the Lynx Motors project reaches production, it will mark a significant evolution of the Ford GT legacy, transforming the revered supercar into a hypercar with extreme horsepower and exclusivity to match. Enthusiasts and collectors alike will be watching closely as more details emerge about this ambitious reimagining of an American performance icon.
