Ford Faqs

The most realistic concept is the Ford Interceptor four-door muscle car. It gets the striking chrome grille treatment from last year’s Super Chief concept, but it’s surprisingly understated overall. The low roofline and broad shoulderline lend a powerful, toned look and it’s not hard to imagine something like this on the road before too long.

Inside things get a bit wackier. A rather gauche all-black interior has low, bucket seats and even the headliner finished in “belt leather”. Head restraints hang from the roof, rather than extending from seatbacks. The dash is straight out of the ’70s muscle car playbook: all squares and rectangles. Back-seat riders get experimental inflatable seat belts.

Interceptor’s engine, like its chassis, is based on the current Mustang. It’s a 400-horsepower 5.0-liter V8 upgraded with sports and racing parts that Ford dubs “Cammer,” after the high-power, large valve, overhead cam engines that propelled its race-winning cars in the mid-60s an appropriate association for the Interceptor.
