Ford's 1972bhp Super Van 4 will take on Pikes Peak in June, piloted by record-holder Romain Dumas
While the road-going van is offered with 265bhp in its most potent form, the new one-off creation that starred at Goodwood Festival of Speed packs almost eight times that.– from the quad-motor powertrain and the Supervan's claimed sub-2.0sec 0-62mph is far quicker than any of the three previous Supervans managed.
The Supervan 4's capabilities were showcased at Goodwood by Romain Dumas, who has set record times at the Nürburgring, Pikes Peak and Goodwood hillclimb using Volkswagen's retired ID R electric racing prototype. The standard E-Transit Custom floorpan is topped by a steel spaceframe and a radical aero-optimised body fabricated with lightweight composite panels, while the suspension, brakes and steering are all track-honed systems.
