The Ford Sport Trac Adrenalin is the
world's first high-performance sport-utility truck (SUT). We're looking
to take Ford performance to an entirely new market segment with the
Sport Trac Adrenalin," says Steve Lyons, vice president, Ford Motor
Company and president, Ford Division. "Adrenalin is designed to offer a
unique combination of performance and functionality.
Adrenalin
has combined the best attributes of two breakthrough Ford vehicles -
Ford SVT F-150 Lightning and Ford Explorer Sport Trac. It also offers
class-leading technologies, including all-wheel drive, a six-speed
automatic transmission and Ford's industry-leading AdvanceTrac® with
Roll Stability Control(TM). It offers four full-sized doors, four
bolstered bucket seats, and a four-foot composite box with 30 percent
more cargo capacity than the current Explorer Sport Trac.
"We
have a very clear view of what we want to do to retain Ford's
leadership in performance vehicles," says Phil Martens group vice
president, Product Creation. "This includes looking beyond traditional
SVT products for opportunities with unique performance attributes, such
as all-wheel-drive." The Sport Trac Adrenalin delivers searing
acceleration with its 4.6-liter, 32-valve DOHC V-8 power train. A
Roots-type supercharger and water-to-air intercooler boost output to a
whopping 390 horsepower and 390 pounds-feet of torque.
