Unleash the Ford Raptor T1+
A Beast Built for Dakar Domination
-
Free The Raptors!
You may have noticed Ford’s recent trend of reviving classic badge cars, such as the new Ford Capri. While we understand the shift towards electric vehicles, many fans find this interpretation disappointing. However, Ford managed to shift focus when they unveiled the impressive Ford Raptor T1+, designed to dominate the legendary Dakar rally!
The Ford Raptor T1+ is not just an ordinary truck. It features a race-spec 5.0-liter V8 engine equipped with a dry-sump lubrication system. Developed in collaboration with Ford’s performance partner, M-Sport, this vehicle adheres to FIA regulations that limit horsepower in the T1+ class to around 400 bhp. Yet, the powerful sound of this engine promises an exhilarating driving experience.
More Than Just Power
But the Ford Raptor T1+ isn’t just about power. Built to tackle the harshest terrains. Fox supplies the suspension. It features a sophisticated double-wishbone setup at both the front and rear. Adjustable dampers with remote reservoirs ensure optimal performance on any surface. Meanwhile, the massive BFGoodrich 37-inch tyres wrapped around 17-inch alloy wheels provide exceptional grip.
For maximum stopping power, Alcon supplies ventilated 355mm discs with six-piston callipers on both axles. Durability is key in the unforgiving Dakar Rally. The Ford Raptor T1+ utilizes a T45 steel spaceframe for a rock-solid foundation. In addition, lightweight carbon fibre body panels keep the overall weight to a minimum.
Beautiful Aggression
The aggressive design reflects the truck’s capabilities. The iconic Ford grille, looking right at home even on this beast, complements the wide fenders and the striking Red Bull livery.
The Ford Raptor T1+ is a testament to Ford’s off-road prowess. While conquering the Dakar Rally is its primary purpose, it inspires anyone who craves off-road adventure and pushes the boundaries.
