The Ford Special Vehicle Team was established in 1991 to "Polish the Ford Oval" by creating low-volume, factory-produced vehicles designed for those select few whose idea of driving is a high-powered, passionate experience-not just a means of getting from point A to point B. In a move to support this spirited enthusiasm, Ford Motor Company carefully integrated the wide array of talent in the company to a small, cross-functional group of engineers, product planners, and marketing people, housed together under one roof with a common mission : to create vehicles specifically designed to meet the unique needs and desires of the knowledgeable driving enthusiast. 3, record 1, English, - Special%20Vehicle%20Team
