Ford Falcon Ute Prices Announced

Ford Falcon Ute – Luxury performance buyers now have an even bigger reason to put the 2014 Falcon G6E Turbo and performance XR Series sedans on their shopping lists.

Ford has announced across-the-range price realignments for the 2014 Falcon range, with the luxury performance G6E Turbo receiving a $9,685 cut to its Manufacturers’ List Price (MLP). The 2014 G6E Turbo will have an MLP of $46,550*, when it goes on sale later this year.

Performance buyers for both the six-speed manual and six-speed automatic XR Series also benefit from the price realignment, with MLP reductions of between $3,045 and $4,400 for normally aspirated XR and XR Turbo models.

The reductions don’t stop at the Falcon G6E Turbo and XR Series either, with customer savings spread across the entire Falcon range. Depending on the model, MLPs have been trimmed between $1,335 and $6,625, while equipment levels and features have been improved.

The new MLPs for the 2014 Falcon sedan are:

• Falcon 4.0L Petrol (auto) $35,900*

• Falcon XR6 4.0L Petrol (manual) $35,590*

• Falcon XR6 4.0L Petrol (auto) $37,790*

• Falcon XR6 Turbo 4.0L Petrol (manual) $42,990*

• Falcon XR6 Turbo 4.0L Petrol (auto) $45,190*

• Falcon G6E 4.0L Petrol (auto) $40,110*

• Falcon G6E Turbo 4.0L Petrol (auto) $46,550*

Apart from the proven in-line six cylinder petrol and EcoLPi engines, Ford’s acclaimed EcoBoost engine technology is a no-cost option on the Falcon and Falcon G6E sedan, mated to a six-speed ZF sequential gearbox. EcoBoost offers the power customers want with the fuel efficiency they desire.

The EcoLPi engine is available on Falcon sedan, Falcon XR6 sedan, adds $2,500 over the normally aspirated 4.0-litre petrol engine, while the six-speed ZF sequential automatic in the sporty XR6 and XR6 Turbo adds $2,200. Pricing for the 2014 Falcon XR8 sedan will be revealed early next month.

Falcon Ute customers also benefit with cuts to the MLP for XR Series utes of between $1,380 and $3,750. Like the Falcon Sedan, the EcoLPi option on the Falcon Ute is $2,500 and is available on Cab Chassis, Styleside Box, XR6 Cab Chassis and XR6 Styleside Box models.

Falcon Ute customers now have a standard six-speed automatic, while optioning the six-speed ZF automatic transmission in Falcon XR6 Ute adds $2,200^. Single Zone Climate Control is now standard.

“We have had an overwhelmingly positive response to the styling and technology of the 2014 Falcon. Now we bring a very compelling price for customers looking for a large sedan, particularly the G6E Turbo and our XR Series,” Ford General Marketing Manager, David Katic said.

“Falcon is also the only Australian made large sedan that gives customers the choice of EcoBoost technology, six-cylinder performance or V8 sportiness. No other local carmaker can make that claim.” As well, customers are able to choose between EcoLPi and turbo variants, he said.

“This is the best-ever Falcon, introducing new smart technologies like SYNC2 with Emergency Assistance across the range,” Katic said.

Importantly too, the 2014 Falcon range will come with myFord Capped Price Servicing as standard for the entire Falcon range, which also includes the addition of auto club membership and roadside assistance.

Katic said myFord Capped Price Servicing was Ford’s commitment to a service experience customers could trust.
