Ford Falcon / Fairmont Vehicle Information
The Ford BA Falcon is a full-size car, produced by the Ford Motor Company of Australia between September 2002 and October 2005.
The exterior styling of the BA was a substantial revision of that used for the preceding AU model.
A new independent rear suspension setup was fitted to all sedan derivatives, and the engine and transmission received further upgrades.
In late 2004, Ford introduced a Mark II update, bringing subtle styling and mechanical changes, and twelve months after that, replaced the BA with the BF.
Powerplants consisted of both straight-sixes and V8s, with the entry-level Barra 182 six-cylinder being a significant improvement over the AU Falcon's six, with a gain of 25 kilowatts (34 hp) of power for a total of 182 kilowatts (244 hp).
The 156-kilowatt (209 hp) LPG-only Barra E-Gas engine was offered as an option on lower specification models. LPG-powered variants of the BA range are commonly used as taxis throughout Australia.
A turbocharged variant of the Barra engine was introduced in a new XR6 Turbo model and produced 240 kilowatts (320 hp) of power.
A 5.4 litre V8 replaced the Windsor engine of the AU. The new V8 was a modified version of Ford's North American Modular V8 available in two variants: the Barra 220 generating 220 kilowatts (300 hp) and a 260 kilowatts (350 hp) Boss 260. The new V8 was smoother, more fuel efficient, and quieter.
