The Ford BA Falcon is a full-size sedan that is manufactured in Victoria, Australia. The car can seat five people in relative comfort and was released to the public in September 2002. The engine was an upgraded version of the 4.0-liter six-cylinder Barra V6 which was previously used on the AU Falcon. The Barra engine can dish out 182 kW of power at 5000 rmp. There is lot’s of empty space around the motor so it would be easier to conduct repairs and LPG motor was available cutting the fuel costs. The suspension has been revised and as well as the new interior specially focusing on the centre console. The Ford BA Falcon has one main rival which is the Holden Commodore.
