Does Ford Still Make The Gt? | Road Car Status Now

No, Ford’s road-going supercar ended in 2022, and the later Mk IV was a tiny track-only run.

If you’re asking, “Does Ford Still Make The Gt?”, the clean answer splits in two. Ford stopped building the street-legal Ford GT after the 2022 model year. Then it kept the GT name alive with the Mk IV, a low-volume car built for track use only. So if you mean a road car you can title, register, and drive home, that chapter is over.

That split is why the topic still trips people up. Old Ford GT pages are still live. Auction listings are packed with delivery-mile cars. The Mk IV arrived after the road car bowed out. Put all of that together and it can look like Ford still has a GT on the line when it doesn’t in the way most buyers mean.

Does Ford Still Make The Gt In 2026?

As of April 2026, Ford is not building a regular road-going Ford GT. The second-generation car, the one launched for the 2017 model year, finished its run with the GT LM special edition in 2022.

The only later GT tied to this generation is the Mk IV. That car is not street legal. It was pitched as a hand-built, track-only machine in a tiny batch, aimed at collectors and track-day owners, not normal showroom traffic.

So the plain-language answer goes like this:

• No new street-legal Ford GT is rolling out for public sale.
• Yes, Ford did keep building a GT-badged car after 2022, but it was the track-only Mk IV.
• No direct road-car successor has shown up on sale since the GT LM send-off.

The Timeline That Settles It

The Ford GT story makes more sense when you line up the handoff from one phase to the next. The badge did not vanish in one clean step. It moved from road car to farewell edition, then to a track machine built in tiny numbers.

• 2005–2006: Ford sold the first modern GT, a retro-flavored halo car with V8 power.
• 2015: Ford revealed the new GT, built around a carbon-fiber structure and twin-turbo V6 power.
• 2017: Customer deliveries of the second-generation road car began.
• 2019–2021: Heritage and special editions kept the run active while production stayed tight.
• 2022: The GT LM arrived as the road car’s farewell edition.
• 2023 onward: The Mk IV carried the GT name into a track-only phase.

Why The Answer Gets Murky

Three things blur the picture. One, Ford still hosts GT pages online, so the car can look current at a glance. Two, many GTs trade hands through dealers, brokers, and auctions with almost no miles, which makes them feel new even when they are not. Three, the Mk IV arrived after the road car ended, and casual readers often miss the track-only detail.

There’s also the way halo cars are sold. The GT was never a normal order-bank model with wide dealer stock. It ran through an application process, long waits, and tiny volumes. That makes “still make” trickier than it would be for an F-150 or Mustang. The GT was rare from day one, so the gap between “in production,” “sold out,” and “available on the open market” has always been messy.

Model Or Milestone	What Ford Built	What It Means For The Production Answer

2015 Reveal	Second-generation GT announced	Start of the modern twin-turbo era
2017 Customer Cars	Road-going production began	This is the road car most people mean today

Alan Mann Heritage Edition	Road car honoring Ford’s 1966 testing program	Late-run street model before the final send-off
2022 GT LM	Farewell edition for the road car	Marks the end of street-legal production
2023–2026 Mk IV	Track-only GT built in tiny numbers	Keeps the badge alive, but not as a road car

What Ford’s Official Record Says

Ford put the road-car ending in plain language. In its 2022 Ford GT LM announcement, the company called the LM the final special edition for the current road cars and said production would end by year-end. That is the clean marker for the street-legal GT.

Then Ford kept the name alive with the 2023 Ford GT Mk IV page, where it describes a hand-crafted, limited-edition track-only supercar. That wording matters. It tells you Ford had not rolled straight into another normal GT road car. It had shifted the badge into a different lane.

The line then moved toward its close. In Ford’s final production wave note, the brand said the third and last wave of Mk IV production would mark the end of this line of road and race cars. Put side by side, those three Ford statements settle the issue: the street GT ended in 2022, and the Mk IV is the late track-only coda.

Road-Going GT Vs. Mk IV

This is the split that answers most buyer questions. The road-going GT and the Mk IV share the badge, the shape, and much of the myth. But they do not serve the same owner.

The street GT was a homologated supercar. You could register it, insure it, and use it like any other road-legal exotic. The Mk IV is different. It was pitched for closed-course use, with more power, a longer wheelbase, race-focused aero, and no street registration path for normal owners.

• Road-going GT: street legal, collector-owned, now finished.
• Mk IV: track only, tiny production, not the car most people mean in daily conversation.
• Used-market GT: still easy to spot online, but those are resale cars, not new factory production.

That last point matters if you’re shopping. A dealer may advertise a “new” GT with delivery miles, plastic still on the seats, and factory paint untouched. It can still be years removed from production. In this corner of the market, “new” often means unused, not newly built.

What This Means If You’re Shopping One

If your plan is to buy a Ford GT for road use, you’re shopping the secondary market. That means price, history, mileage, options, and provenance matter more than model-year chatter. A low-mile Heritage Edition may pull a different buyer than a standard 2019 car, even when both are mechanically close.

If your plan is track use only, the Mk IV is the outlier. It sits in a narrower lane, with a smaller buyer pool, different upkeep, and ownership costs that go well past purchase price. It is not the fallback choice for someone who missed a road-going GT. It is a separate kind of machine.

Seller language can blur things here too. “New” may mean untitled, delivery-mile, or newly listed. Those are not the same. An untitled 2020 GT is still a car from a finished production run, not a fresh factory build. That changes how you read price, warranty timing, tire age, battery age, and dealer markup.

Buying Questions Worth Asking

• Is the car road legal in the country where you will use it?
• Does it have a clean ownership trail and service file?
• Is it a standard GT, a Heritage Edition, an LM, or a Mk IV?
• Are you paying for rarity, low miles, or a color and trim mix you actually want?

Your Goal	What To Shop	What To Watch
Street driving	2017–2022 road-going GT	Resale pricing, service records, title status
Collector hold	Heritage, LM, or unusual spec cars	Originality, mileage, auction swings
Track-only ownership	Mk IV	Closed-course use, storage, transport costs
Factory-fresh road GT	None	Road-car production already ended
Waiting for a new GT	No current street model on sale	No public road-car launch to buy today

Should You Wait For A New One?

If your whole question is really, “Should I hold off for the next GT?”, there is no public road-going GT on sale to wait for right now. Ford’s public messaging tied off the road car with the 2022 LM and tied off the late Mk IV phase with a final production wave. So a buyer making a decision today should act on the market in front of them, not on a rumor cycle.

Rumors tend to pop up any time Ford posts a race result, refreshes a performance page, or gets people talking about Le Mans. That buzz is normal. It still does not mean a new street GT is sitting behind the curtain. Until Ford launches one, the current answer stays the same.

The Verdict On Ford GT Production

Ford no longer makes the street-legal GT. That run ended in 2022 with the GT LM. After that, Ford used the GT badge for the Mk IV, a tiny track-only run that sits outside normal road-car production.

So if you mean a road-going Ford GT, the answer is no. If you mean any GT-badged machine built after the road car ended, the answer points to the Mk IV only. That’s the cleanest way to read Ford’s own record and the cleanest way to shop the market.
