2022 Ford GT

Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2022 GT.

Transmission Automatic (AM7)

The 2022 Ford GT is a purpose-built supercar that sits atop Ford's performance hierarchy, powered by a mid-mounted engine paired with an Automatic (AM7) transmission. Operating with 13.7 quarts of 5W-50 viscosity oil, this extreme performance machine achieves EPA-rated fuel economy of 12 mpg city, 18 mpg highway, and 14 mpg combined. Based on complaint data spanning from 2004 to 2018, the GT model has demonstrated a remarkably consistent track record, with complaint counts ranging from a low of just one in 2004 to a peak of five in 2006 — figures that suggest strong structural and mechanical reliability over nearly two decades of production. This established dependability, combined with the 2022 model's refined powertrain calibration and updated specification, positions it as the culmination of lessons learned throughout the GT's storied history.
