Ford is getting ready to attend the Goodwood Festival with the Ford Very Gay Raptor

Ford is preparing to be one of the brands with the most to say at the Goodwood Festival. To that end, the Ford Performance division has prepared two variants that aim to show a lot to the other participants at the event. One of them is a very special version of the Ford Raptor. It is a variant named the Ford Very Gay Raptor, and it has a lot to say with this vehicle.

It is a version of the Raptor that has been painted gold and has been given a decoration with a rainbow, the emblem of the LGBTQIA+ movement. With this variant the company wants to show its support for the community and wants to help break taboos and the thinking of that part of the population that holds prejudices against the community.

The vehicle will face the off-road track at Goodwood and will also take on the climb up the legendary hill of the British circuit. But the exterior decoration is one more tool to show support for the community. In fact, the brand is carrying out several actions in this regard, with a series of talks called Though Talks that seek to foster a culture of integration and inclusion in the automotive industry.

Welsh rugby star Gareth Thomas, the first player to have openly declared himself gay, is one of the speakers at these talks and will also play a prominent role at the event. The idea for this variant arose as Ford’s response to discrimination in 2021. It is the most powerful model of the Ford range, and with it the aim is to eliminate any discriminatory ideas related to the LGBTQIA+ community.

The proposed model was a huge success online, and the company decided to manufacture two units, one in the United Kingdom and another in Germany.

Ford SuperVan Electric

Another of the models that will be present at Goodwood is the Ford SuperVan Electric. It is based on the recently presented E-Transit Custom. This is the electric variant to which the Transit, one of Europe’s best-selling commercial vehicles, has evolved. The model that will attend Goodwood is one of the four electric commercial vehicles that Ford will launch in Europe before 2024.
