Technology

While Ford today has a few brands like Mazda, Lincoln and Mercury under its wing, their history with Volvo, Jaguar and Aston-Martin is more than a foot-note in their history. All of Ford's models today have inherited values that those brand names and companies stand for. It sets Ford cars apart as rather well-engineered, technologically advanced cars that put equal emphasis on performance, practicality, safety and design. Here's an overview of what most modern Ford cars have in common.

Kinetic design:

The design language Ford uses in today’s models aims at making their cars look like they’re on the move even while standing still. The sleek front bumper with the X face incorporated into the grille make an attractive design that can be manipulated to suit each car's face and level of intensity they wish to portray. The new Ford Fiesta, Focus and even crossovers like the new Ecosport and Escape feature this design.

Ecoboost engines:

Like all other manufacturers, Ford aims to optimize their engine range with powerful, yet economical engines that are clean and efficient with little or no shortcomings. The Ecoboost line is one of the paramount aspects of their strategy. From a 1.0L 3-cylinder engine making over 120 hp to a 365 hp 3.5L V6 engine, the Ecoboost range is expanding and helping Ford replace larger less-efficient engines from their lineup.

Models

Ford's range of cars on a global scale is astounding. Being one of the leading auto makers in the world, Ford has the ability to create market specific products that perfectly blend into the lifestyle in a particular part of the world. From the very practical compact Ford Ka in the UK, to the globally cherished Fiesta and Focus, Ford delivers cars that not just appeal to the senses, but are also fantastic packages overall, being durable, extremely practical and fun to drive as well as economical. The Explorer and Expedition SUVs are among the most practical and capable, not to mention large cars you can buy for a very reasonable amount of money.

History of Ford cars

As a brand Ford has always been known to be different in their approach to making cars; quite famously they are more focused on the driver. Every Ford car, from the Focus hatchback to the Ranger pickup truck, has an engaging quality to it so you always enjoy the drive. Ford has been the UK’s best-selling manufacturer for the past 20 years which makes spares and used parts readily available for all models, even the older Ford Cortina models or a 1978 Ford Granada.Since 1996, the Ford Fiesta or the Ford Focus have topped the table of the UK’s most sold car every single year. In the years before that, Ford always had at least two to three cars in the top 5 every single year with the Escort and the Mondeo being more popular at the time. In 2011, Ford sold 96,112 Fiestas and 81,832 Focus models in the UK beating Vauxhall and Volkswagen hands-down.
