The journey for Ford’s Super Cobra Jet 1800’s from a basic concept to record-setting vehicle involved significant upgrades over the previous 1400-horsepower version. These include a custom control strategy and a breakthrough lightweight battery system, developed using data from the collaboration between Ford Performance and MLe Racecars. Power comes from four PN250DZR inverters and two double-stacked DS-250-115 motor pairings, all optimized for unprecedented launches and performance, generating a combined 1,800 hp and more than 1,110 lb-ft of torque.
