Ford Australia just launched their all new Ford Falcon XR8 presenting new exterior and interior architectures and designs, all-new front suspension, advanced power trains, more torque, and most importantly, an improved fuel economy as well as a functional and efficient safety package.

The Ford Falcon XR8 has some similarities with the XR6 Turbo. The only difference is with the engine and with the signature power bulge. The modern Boss 290 5.4-liter four valve V8 engine boosts the XR8, not to mention its engine being complemented by a new exhaust system—the Semi Active Muffler (SAM). The SAM gives out an unmatched, sporty V8 exhaust note, while it delivers a better kind of interior environment.

Strictly speaking in pure visual terms, the interiors of Ford Falcon XR8 have a classic look that is highlighted by soft blue night-time dashboard lighting and splashes of chrome. The stereo also is now better compared to previous makes. A six-disc MP3-compatible CD changer is matched to an eight-speaker 150W amplifier and subwoofer package, giving out a great solid sound all through out the vehicle.

When it comes to riding or driving the Ford Falcon XR8, despite its bulk at the front end, the XR8 seems to be more balanced than Ford GT’s speed. You can pretty much accelerate pleasantly with XR8 since it’s only highlighted by smooth changes in the ZF 6-speed automatic gearbox. In addition, XR8’s sequential sports shift is also handy since it anticipates and monitor whatever driving style you have which can sometimes let you stay in a low gear for a longer time.

The Ford Falcon XR8 is the very first Australian built car to garner a five star safety rating from the Australasian New Car Assessment Program, also known as ANCAP. It scored 34.6 out of 37 points and received five stars for passenger’s safety which prove that Ford Falcon XR8 can be one of the safest cars ever made.
