ramjet Posted September 30, 2019 Report Share Posted September 30, 2019 Another thing which may have been answered somewhere and I have not seen it yet, has a CD figure been given for the car? I just went and looked at pictures of the new (now old I suppose) Ford GT and I have to admit that it is pretty impressive how they got the airflow through the back of the car considering the whopping great V8 in there. I understand that it would have been much easier with the Evija, but hats off to Ford I think.

PAR Posted September 30, 2019 Report Share Posted September 30, 2019 The intention was definitely to sell some to Oz but unclear if it would be LHD. Seems like they had few indication of interest from there at launch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tim_marra Posted September 30, 2019 Report Share Posted September 30, 2019 McLaren P1 was LHD only too . I wonder what the cost is to develop the Evija for RHD and LHD? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramjet Posted October 1, 2019 Report Share Posted October 1, 2019 I recall hearing about only LHD somewhere in a launch video I think. I think it is a bit odd that there aren't a few to be RHD to be available for the UK at least? Or is the target for these Europe and anybody else that drives on the wrong side of the road?

ramjet Posted October 2, 2019 Report Share Posted October 2, 2019 If I saw that photo without you guys having said it was a GT40, I would not have known. I am hoping that is a race car. And, no, the steering wheel would not have given it away. I would have thought some idiot nicked one and plonked it on their wheel.

Bibs Posted October 4, 2019 Report Share Posted October 4, 2019 It's not been announced, nor has the downforce figure or actual 0-60 and top speed. It's still in development.
