Ken Block and Ford Motor Company’s exclusive partnership has brought in some real hardware over the past decade in rally and rallycross. 19 race wins plus 17 other podium finishes, 2 X Games medals, well over a billion video views across Block’s social media platforms, and the first ever World Rally Championship points scored for the brand by an American driver. As of January 2021, that exclusivity comes to an end, with Block becoming a free agent. And that means his options behind the wheel are now wide open.
“Working with Ford over the past decade has been awesome.” says Ken Block. “From racing all over the world, to accumulating a half billion views from Gymkhana THREE to Gymkhana TEN, to creating the Emmy nominated series The Gymkhana Files for Amazon Prime - along with building a fleet of Fords including the iconic AWD Mustang Hoonicorn and F-150 Hoonitruck - it’s been a great partnership. It’s simply been a dream come true to work with the company that built the truck that my Dad drove when I was a teenager. I’m super appreciative to Ford for the support over the years, but I am also looking forward to what an unrestricted 2021 holds, and the ability to spread my wings a bit and play with a lot other toys.
2020 was a big year for Block and his Ford vehicles. He took the overall win at Rally Barbados in a WRC2 Ford Fiesta, won his class (and 3rd overall) at Rally Legend in San Marino in his Ford Escort Cossie V2, and also won the first ever Projekt E race of the FIA World RallyCross Championship in Holjes, Sweden, in a Ford Fiesta. Along with winning races, Block and Hoonigan launched the all-new viral video series,- Hoonicorn Vs The World. Spanning 11 episodes, the series features Ken racing his 1965 Ford Mustang RTR Hoonicorn against a variety of wild vehicles including a McLaren Senna and the World’s Fastest Donk. The series has been viewed over 34 million times since its launch in late November.
What does the next chapter have in store? Ken Block and Hoonigan Racing Division will be announcing new partnerships very soon. In the meantime, enjoy this video of Ken’s favorite Ford - the 1,400 horsepower AWD Mustang Hoonicorn V2 - get taken on its “last ride”.

Ford really doesn’t care about its fans😂. They really shat on the mustang name and owners.

So what happens to the Hoonicorn now? I hope its not going into some museum. That car was built to be driven, hard.
Stéphane Poirier
Fuck the car , the car came alive with ken block only👍👍👍
Stéphane Poirier

Noo! That probably means he has to chuck the rest of his fleet. 😬 It has been an epic time watching this beast tear it up, but it's time for it to go😔

Jameson Krantz
Glad he's getting rid of it. He took an old muscle car and made it shit fuck you
Turbo World
Who owns it though?! Easily my favorite car !
Joe R.G.
It might be a dumb and potentially lethal idea but, I'm curious what kind of time this thing could set at Pike's or the Nurburgring when pressed. But alas sweet prince, may you rest for now.
Danut Boian
love this car where is it going to?
Fardin Yousefi
I wish I had the same car ...

Ken, your last unicorn 🦄 run should be with a run from the CHP off into the sunset and never seen again.

I remember when all this came to light back in 2010. This is genuinely sad to know something that gave me so much joy will no longer be.
All the best, Block.
Dirk Antoine
I love this car so much lol, the maintenance costs must be disgusting tho.. but I'd pay it just to have something completely special... this is a special car, very very special car.
Mike Flores
I literally never comment on anything. But I own several Ford Performance vehicles. I hope that Ken block is moving on to bigger and better things. Not Ford Performance cheaping out. Lots of trial and error that gets put to work with these cars.
senni bgon
The fact that when he was doing donuts the subtitles read “music” makes me happy
jendrus 4
Great video :)
Zarko Miranovic

andrew perry
So much goodness
Kieran Murthy
Will they put a fox body front end on it and vanilla ice’s face on the hood?🧐I guess we’ll have to find out
Craig Parker
It think it's hilarious with the donuts around the Segway at the end - Ken is fully suited including helmet and harness - yet Brian (the one who's most likely to get hurt) - zero protection - CLASSIC!!!

The fact that when he was doing donuts the subtitles read “music” makes me happy

We have watched that car like siblings, parents and grand parents. If that car goes away the world will become a darker place. We love that car.

Agreed it's ment to be hooned not sitting in a showroom.
PJ Sinohin
Block X Tesla collab next?
Chris Shupe
This can't be the last moments of this car with you. You have earned and deserve to own that car forever with everything that its done with YOU behind the wheel!

True and his team at Hoonigan Racing took hours of research trying to deliver this car
Usama Said

SXM: Xairid
I hope you continue to drift with Ford, or japanese stuff. Aston Martin or Jaguar drift car would be really cool too. Imagine that Jag exhaust note while drifting.

Final drive should have been a police chase and getting away lmfao, let her go out in a blaze of glory

Hap Ticz
This car needs to go in a museum if it's just gonna sit and never be touched again, sad to see it go but happy for all the memories it gave me
Trippy_g00n
So everything I see it's "Ken block's hoonicorn" "Ken block's this and that" but why would they say that if they they're not his car. If he doesn't get to keep it then who's gonna drive it now?
Ghost Ghostlt
To vahala with the hoonicorn
