2008 Ford Adrenalin Auto Show Photo

The 2007 SportTrac Ford unveiled as a concept at Detroit will become the second new SVT model under the in-house tuner’s new chief, lead Mustang engineer Hau Thai-Tang. Named Adrenalin, it gets a supercharged 4.6-liter 32-valve V-8, six-speed automatic, all-wheel-drive, and unlike the new SVT Shelby Mustang 500, independent rear suspension. The blown 4.6 makes 390 horsepower and 390 pound-feet of torque in the Explorer-based truck. SVT tunes the shocks and springs, and the Adrenalin gets larger front- and rear-stabilizer bars and 295/45R21 tires. SVT says the Adrenalin will match or better the last F-150 Lightning for performance. The last Lightning Motor Trend tested did 0-60 mph in 5.1 seconds. It’s scheduled for mid-2007 release.
