Introduction
The XG Falcon was introduced in March 1993 as a facelift of the XF commercial range, which it replaced. The XG was marketed in coupe utility and panel van body styles and during its three years in production it was sold alongside the EB Falcon, ED Falcon and EF Falcon sedan and wagon models.
The XG featured the XF Falcon-style body with a new front similar to that of the EB Falcon. An overhead camshaft engine, anti-lock brakes and a one-tonne option were offered for the first time on Falcon commercial models.
Model range
The XG range included two-door coupe utility and two-door panel van body styles, marketed as follows.
A limited edition Longreach GLi Tradesman utility was offered from December 1995, with 800 examples produced.
Engine and transmissions
The XG was powered by a 148 kW (198 hp) 4.0-litre six cylinder overhead camshaft engine. The XR6 model was fitted with a 161 kW (216 hp) version of this unit. Five-speed manual and four-speed automatic transmissions were available.
Replacement
The XG series was replaced by the Ford Falcon (XH) in April 1996.
