The Ford BA Falcon is a full-size car, produced by the Ford Motor Company of Australia, between September 2002 and October 2005. Its exterior styling was a substantial revision of the AU model, featuring an integrated aerial in the rear window to improve the vehicle's aerodynamics, and a new independent rear suspension. Ford briefly outsold its chief competitor, the Holden Commodore twice, and the car won Wheels Car of the Year in 2002, followed by four consecutive Australia's Best Cars awards.
Development and design
Development of the BA model was a AU$500 million investment, and included 24,000 hours of engine and durability testing at Germany's Nürburgring and calibrations in both Sweden and Australia. Exterior styling was the work of Scott Strong, then chief designer for Ford Australia, and afterward by Simon Butterworth.
