FORD INTERCEPTOR:
"The Ford Interceptor concept has the soul of Mustang but combines ‘Built Ford Tough’
attitude with the sporty elegance of ’60s Ford sedans,” said Peter Horbury, executive director, Design, The Americas.
Exterior design elements, feature substantial, sometimes brutish, surfaces and sections and the traditional rear-wheel drive
proportion that includes a short front overhang, extended dash-to-axle ratio, low cabin and higher beltline.
As a nod to performance purists, the ultimate muscle lies under the powered clamshell “shaker” hood, which caps a thoroughly detailed engine compartment.
Making this a Ford are signature design touches, including the horizontal three-bar grille that is structurally integrated into
the bumper beam as well as professionally applied “squircles” – or professionally square circles – inside and out.
The concept’s minimalist interior is sleek, focusing the driver’s attention on the speedometer and tachometer, whose needles start at center and move opposite each other.
The audio control panel and climate controls are hidden – but deployable. And the gated six-speed shifter is exposed, just waiting to be thrown into gear.
