Ford CEO Jim Farley Takes A Ride In A Puma Rally Car And Likes It

Ford CEO Jim Farley shared a sneak peek of his ride in a Ford Puma WRC car on Twitter today. The Blue Oval's boss tweeted that the ride "was unlike any driving experience” he’s ever had." The short video shows Farley's reaction as Craig Breen pilots the new Ford Pump Hyrbid Rally1 along an unspecified course.

You can see the joy as Farley's grin grows wide on his face as Breen whips the Puma race car through the course. In January, Ford introduced the Puma Hybrid Rally1, which replaced the Ford Fiesta World Rally car. The Puma might look like the crossover, but its underpinnings are a bit more special. The Fiesta WRC car rode on a production car base, but new regulations gave manufacturers more freedom. Ford decided to use a space-frame chassis for the Puma race car.
