The year was 1965. Famed racecar driver Carroll Shelby had the ingenious idea of shoehorning a big-block Ford 427-cu.-in. V8 under the hood of a petite British roadster. It became the legendary speedster known as the Cobra. It’s now 2004. Imagine taking Shelby’s idea and re-creating it with Ford’s latest design technology. In the flesh, this idea takes the form of a 605-horsepower, V10-powered Cobra Concept capable to taking four adult passengers on the ride of their lives.
The Bronco concept goes back to the days when the sport utility vehicle was built to go off-road where no other vehicle would dare traverse. Its gutsy turbo-diesel reaches peak 244 lbs./ft. torque at just 1,800 rpm, and provides limited-time overboost of 258 lbs./ft. at full throttle for steep climbing. For an even greater power kick, holding down the N20 button injects a stream of nitrous oxide, delivering a temporary 60-hp boost to clear that really tough off-road obstacle.
