Ford
IndiGo
The
Ford IndiGo was designed with Indy race cars in mind, hence the large spoilers
front and back and the exposed wheel look. Actually they are covered by thin
matt black guards.
To
help maintain the straight-from-the-track appearance, the lights on the IndiGo
are discreet and integrated into the mirrors and front spoiler.
Power
for the Ford IndiGo concept was supplied by a 441 bhp 6.0 litre V-twelve engine
giving the car an estimated top speed of 170 mph and 0-60 time of under four
seconds. The IndiGo's six-speed sequential transmission was derived from race
cars, and gear changes were made by pressing Formula 1 style buttons on the
steering wheel.
The
monocoque chassis of the Ford IndiGo concept was a single piece tub formed from
carbon fibre composite.
