Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2020 GT.
The 2020 Ford GT uses an automatic seven‑speed transmission and delivers an EPA rating of 12 city/18 highway/14 combined mpg, while its lubrication system requires 13.7 quarts of 5W‑50 oil. The model’s documented complaint history covers 2004‑2018, with a peak of five complaints in 2006 and a low of one complaint in 2004. Because the 2020 model year falls outside that recorded window, its reliability profile remains uncharted in the available data.
Fluid capacities, tune-up values and fuel economy at a glance.
Replacement part sizes and factory part numbers — battery, bulbs, filters and belts.
From the factory this vehicle uses a BCI NS · 900 CCA battery. Each part links to every other vehicle that shares it, so a part you already stock may fit more of your fleet than you'd expect.
