Overview
It might not look that way at first, but the FG Falcon elevates Ford into an enviable position in the family-car class. All FGs are refined, well fitted out, dynamic on the road, comfortable and spacious. The 5.4-litre 290kW/420Nm Boss 290 engine provides the XR8 version with the solid, rumbling V8 power beloved of Australians and is a suitable backdrop to the on-road dynamics provided by 18-inch alloys, sports suspension and the choice of six-speed manual or sequential auto transmission. A body kit, stability and traction control, front and front side airbags, climate control, power driver's seat and split-fold rear seat are standard.
