Found this Article today on Fullboost.com.au Ford Australia President Tom Gorman today revealed details of the new Falcon and Territory range, which are due to go on sale at the end of October.
"The new BF Falcon and SY Territory models incorporate a host of changes aimed at delivering even more driving enjoyment and fuel economy advantages to our valued customers. "Every Falcon and Territory owner will appreciate the noticeable improvements in performance, refinement and fuel economy in the petrol engines. "Today we revealed changes to the look of the BF Falcon and upgrades to the engines and transmissions powering the Falcon and Territory range. These upgrades will ensure that Falcon and Territory remain at the technological forefront of Australian-made vehicles. "Importantly, all the improvements we've made have been driven by customer feedback and have a real world application that drivers will notice and appreciate," Mr Gorman said. Upgrades to the BF Falcon and SY Territory range include: * A reworked Barra 190 4.0-litre six-cylinder engine offering significant increases in fuel economy, more refinement and increases in power and torque * More power and torque in the turbocharged engine for the Falcon XR * More power and torque in the 3-valve SOHC V8 engine * A world-class ZF six-speed automatic transmission available in premium Falcon sedans and utes, and AWD versions of Territory * An improved ION four-speed automatic transmission * Introduction of the Tremec T56 six-speed manual transmission on XR6 sedan * New exterior styling for the Falcon range, including Fairlane and Falcon Ute * New interior upgrades for all models * New wheel designs for XT, Futura, Fairmont, Fairmont Ghia, XR and XLS * New Fairlane G8 (replacing Fairlane G220) "The changes we've announced today signal another exciting step forward for our local product range," said Mr Gorman. "There are other details of the new Falcon and Territory program that we'll be revealing as we get closer to the launch. "The key overriding principle behind all of them however is their customer-driven focus and user-friendly application. "When combined with the world-class engines and transmissions we've announced today, these further changes will keep Falcon and Territory at the forefront of local automotive engineering and deliver real benefits for every Ford customer." |
