FORD. THE FUTURE APPROACHES.
Today, Ford designers in Australia and overseas are using state of the art Computer
Assisted Design techniques and advanced modelling procedures to design both cars
and components for the next century. In the designs they're shaping anything is
possible. Cars with sleek and beautiful bodies that contain breath-taking aerodynamic
properties. While concealed beneath those shapely panels is automotive engineering at

can call on technical resources from around the world, it's
proud of the advances it is making locally. Such as our

of a four-speed electronically controlled automatic transmission now available on
the EB Falcon, Fairlane and LTD range. The future arrives one day at a time.
So automotive advancement is a process of evolution rather than revolution.
Already refinements such as those illustrated here are finding their way into the Ford
range. And future technologies Ford in Australia is exploring, include engines that
use alternative fuels and produce ecologically low-impact emissions. Not everything

goes towards building better cars for the future. The promise of tomo.r row is one
of enormous potential. And in driving technology into new and exciting areas,
