Ford had a number of new vehicles ready to debut at the two-week long 2006 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit, Michigan. This video shows the 2007 models Ford unveiled at the show — the Ford Edge, Ford Shelby GT500 Coupe/Convertible, Ford Sport Trac, in multiple terrains. Along with Ford, other major car makers like Acura, Audi, Chrysler, Dodge, Honda, Infiniti, Lexus, Lincoln, Mercedes-Benz, Nissan, Pontiac, Porsche, Toyota, and Volkswagen showcased their latest models and concepts for over 700,000 attendees. Some highlights included the debut of the Dodge Challenger and the first generation of the Ford Edge.
The 2007 Ford Edge marked a departure from traditional truck-based SUVs, and Ford referred to it as a CUV (crossover utility vehicle). The Edge featured a sleek, car-like design with a spacious interior and a comfortable ride for five passengers plus cargo. It was offered with a choice of V6 engines. The 3.0L V6 engine, which produced 220 horsepower and 211 lb-ft of torque or the 3.5L V6 engine, which produced 253 horsepower and 245 lb-ft of torque. It was also available in both front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive configurations. To enhance comfort, convenience, and safety, the interior featured cloth seats, a CD player, air conditioning, and power windows and locks. On the outside, the Edge was equipped with 17-inch alloy wheels, heated mirrors, and halogen headlights. Safety features included anti-lock brakes, traction control, and a driver's airbag. The Edge's blend of style, practicality, and performance made it a popular choice among SUV buyers.
The 2007 Ford Shelby GT500 Coupe/Convertible was the fifth-generation model — an iconic muscle car. It was a powerhouse, equipped with a supercharged 5.4-liter V8 engine that delivered a staggering amount of horsepower. This raw power, combined with its aggressive styling and distinctive stripes, made it an instant hit among car enthusiasts. Folks loved the GT500, a factory-built Mustang, for its thrilling performance, its nostalgic appeal, and its ability to turn heads on the road. It was a true modern muscle car that captured the spirit of the original Shelby Cobras.
The 2007 Ford Sport Trac was the second-generation model of this unique Sport Utility Truck. It combined the versatility of a pickup truck with the comfort and amenities of a SUV. Its distinctive design featured a car-like front and a spacious cargo bed. Folks loved the Sport Trac for its off-road capability and a comfortable ride. It was a popular choice for those who needed a vehicle that could handle both daily commutes as well as outdoor adventures.
Ford showcased two innovative concept cars: the Reflex and the F-250 Super Chief. The Ford Reflex, a sleek and aerodynamic crossover, embodied the vision of a future where fuel efficiency and performance coexisted. Not only did it have a hybrid powertrain that combined a gasoline engine with an electric motor (offering impressive fuel economy without sacrificing power), it came with solar panels, and an interior made from recycled Nike athletic shoes! Its futuristic design and advanced technology made it a standout at the show.
The Ford F-250 Super Chief was a rugged and powerful concept truck inspired by the legendary Super Chief train. This off-road beast had a V10 engine, which could run on hydrogen, E85 ethanol or gasoline for convenience. Retro-inspired styling and the Super Chief's impressive capabilities showcased Ford's commitment to building durable trucks.
