What was the Ford Capri, but horny for a car! First presented in 1969 at the Auto Show in Brussels, should the success of the Ford Coupe 1964 Ford published repeat Mustang. To date, Ford waits for a community similar to typical athlete.
With the Ford Evo’s Concept Car, which Ford will introduce in mid-September at the IAA, which nourish the hopes Cologne sport-oriented drivers with a penchant for dynamic Fastbacks.
The coupe concept, which Ford wants to be understood as a fastback sedan shows the evolution of “kinetic design form language” as a global ‘One Ford’ product strategy, which we already see in the Ford Vertrek concept that as the beginning of the year already could. Ford already indicated thus that indicate what we expect in the next year with the new Ford Mondeo.
