DealerOrchard Ford - Authorized SVT Dealer
At Orchard Ford, we are proud to be recognized as the interior of B.C.'s only authorized SVT dealership. SVT, is the designation of the Special Vehicle Team which was created for Ford enthusiasts who wanted more performance from their Ford Vehicles.
The first SVT vehicles were unveiled in 1992 at the Chicago Auto Show and included the 1993 SVT Mustang Cobra and the 1993 SVT F-150 Lightning. After years of refinement, testing of different models for the SVT program and years in development, Ford has narrowed the SVT field for 2012 to two vehicles, the 2012 F-150 SVT Raptor and the 2012 Shelby GT500; two vehicles known for performance and power.
Authorized SVT designation gives Orchard Ford the ability to sell and maintain SVT vehicles and it is a designation we have worked hard to earn. Come in and let us show you just what it means to offer these special vehicles.
2012 Shelby GT500
Released in 2006, the Shelby GT500 was a collaboaration between Ford's SVT and the legendary Carroll Shelby. The Shelby GT500 had a 5.4 L (330 CID) Modular 500 hp (370 kW) supercharged V8 and featured a Tremec TR-6060 6-speed manual transmission, suspension tuning, a body kit, and 18 inch wheels. Since 2006 the Shelby GT500 has undergone transformations aimed at increasing performance and now includes SVT Track Pack.
2012 F-150 Raptor
The F-150 SVT Raptor was first introduced in 2010 as the only high-speed, off-road performance truck offered by an OEM. With a completely re-designed suspension, internal-bypass Fox Racing Shox and specially developed BF Goodrich all-terrain 35" tires, the Raptor is used as a pre-runner for high-speed testing of off-road race tracks prior to races. The 2012 model has undergone several key upgrades. For more information, click below.
