Electric Transit racer has downgraded from four motors to three, but Ford claims a lower weight and better aero car auto cars
was one of the whackiest concepts we saw in 2022, and earlier this year Ford confirmed it was bringing the boxy electric racer to Pikes Peak. Now, it’s given us a look at the exact van that will be making the climb, and there have been some key changes since we saw it last time.
The most obvious of those tweaks is to the color scheme, which is far more eye-catching than the old predominantly white garb, but there are far more important differences on and under the skin that earn this Transit its SuperVan 4.2 name, including some colossal aero devices. SuperVan 4 already featured a front splitter, side skirts, a large rear diffuser, and a weird rear-end design that pinched the back half of the bodywork into a giant-style fin above the waistline. But SuperVan 4 goes even wilder, upsizing all of the lower aero aids and adding a colossal double-deck rear spoiler, resulting in a total of over 4,400 lbs of downforce at 150 mph .
