Last-generation Ford Falcon first view
In a little over two years’ time, Ford will close its manufacturing operations in Australia. One of the casualties of that move is going to be the Victoria-built Falcon, which won’t be replaced.
Consequently, the minor changes just announced for 2014 are probably the model’s final updates.
A new trapezoidal front grille and revised headlights are the most obvious facelift elements. Influenced by Ford’s latest global design language, the alterations work well and give the Falcon a stronger visual link to other vehicles in the range.
The restyle also coincides with the return of the XR8 to the Falcon line-up after a four-year absence. As well as its V8 engine (details of which have yet to be confirmed), this variant is distinguished by a ‘power dome’ on the bonnet, a rear diffuser and a unique exhaust system.
Sales of the 2014 Falcon are due to begin during the fourth quarter of this year. Full specifications and pricing will be revealed closer to the launch date.
