SVT HISTORY
The Ford Special Vehicle Team (SVT) was established in 1991. SVT was
commissioned to create factory-produced driver's cars and trucks;
vehicles that possess a balance between engine and chassis, roadholding
and a supple ride, refinement and performance capability. These qualities
are the core of the SVT product development philosophy.
To support SVT, Ford Motor Company created a dedicated product
development group, Ford Special Vehicle Engineering (SVE). In October
2001, Special Vehicle Engineering (SVE) was renamed Special Vehicle
Team/Engineering (SVT/Engineering).The nucleus of Ford SVT is a
small, cross-functional group of engineers, product planners, and
marketing people who meet on a weekly basis to ensure SVT vehicles
and their mission remain focused. SVT draws heavily on the talents and
knowledge of other driving enthusiasts at Ford who work in the key
disciplines of design, product development, manufacturing, and
marketing. The heart of the SVT philosophy is a deep commitment to
skillful and enthusiastic driving. The ultimate goal of everyone at SVT is
to create vehicles that speak to the needs and desires of the
knowledgeable driving enthusiast.
