Ford Australia
Ford Australia is a subsidiary of Ford Motor Company, Canada.
It was established in the year 1926 at Geelong Victoria. The
company is well known for its Falcon model in Australia. Falcon
was originally a U.S. model which was introduced in the Australian
market in 1960. In 1970, Ford Australia started designing its
own range of Falcon models. Ford Australia was the first company
to introduce the concept of Ute's. Ute's are basically utility
vehicles designed to carry passengers as well as load. The company
has set up a Ford Discovery Centre in Geelong. It is a museum
of the companies history in Australia.
Initially the company manufactured and assembled only the smaller
models, but now all of these are imported. Some examples include
Escort, Cortina and Mazda's Laser and Telstar from Japan. These
models were adapted according to the Australian market. Until
recently all these models were manufactured in Australia but
now they are imported. Mazda's Laser is an example, which, until
1994's September was produced at a plant at Homebush in Sydney,
but now is fully imported from Japan. After quality

Ford Performance Vehicles
Ford Australia even founded an official performance tuning division
called Ford Performance Vehicles or FPV in the year 2002 at
Melbourne, Australia. This set up came about after Ford Australia
joined Pro-Drive owned Tickford in 1991. This partnership produced
the original Falcon model of XR6 and XR8. Later in 2000, to
counter the Holden Special Vehicles, FTE or Ford Tickford Experience
was launched.
Under this banner of FTE, the most acclaimed T-series
was introduced. When the sales were not satisfying, Ford
Australia decided to give a makeover to FTE and renamed it as
FPV. Under this banner Ford Australia launched BA Falcon, the
all new revised version of the earlier Falcon, in 2002. This
model proved to be a big hit and the sales rose high.
