Over the past several decades, many smaller, upstart automakers have leaned on Ford engines to power their vehicles, which makes a lot of sense given the developmental costs of making one from scratch. That list includes quite a few recent specialty vehicles powered by Ford EcoBoost engines, including the Dallara Stradale, the Morgan Super 3, and the Noble M500, to name just a few. Now, another Ford-powered vehicle has joined that list – the Adamastor Furia.
The Adamastor Furia hails from Portugal and is the very first model to emerge from the upstart automaker, though it certainly fits right in with other existing supercars in terms of its wild exterior styling. Adamastor has actually been around since 2010, when it was working on making race cars, but back in 2018, the company shifted its focus to road-going models, with the first fruit of that labor being this – a carbon fiber-bodied supercar that looks like a Le Mans prototype racer for the street.
The Furia’s bubble cockpit, bulging fenders, rear wing, and Venturi effect floor help it slip through the air and, according to Adamastor, also enable it to generate 2,200 pounds of downforce at 155 miles-per-hour. Perhaps more notably, it’s powered by an enhanced version of the twin turbocharged Ford 3.5L V6 EcoBoost engine, which in this guise generates 650 horsepower and 421 pound-feet of torque.
With a curb weight of just 2,450 pounds, that means the Furia can accelerate from 0-62 mph in 3.5 seconds and reach a top speed of 186 miles-per-hour, according to Adamastor. However, it won’t exactly be a common sight, as the company plans to build just 60 units in total, each with a lofty price tag of €1.6 million (around $1.7 million USD). Regardless, the Furia is undoubtedly a head-turner, and it should be rather easy to service and maintain thanks to its common powertrain, too.
