Ford has revealed photos and specification details for the 2015 Falcon Ute, the last-ever Falcon ute.
MEET THE FINAL Ford Falcon Ute. Following the release of details for the last-ever Territory and Falcon sedan, Ford has completed the puzzle by detailing the 2015 Falcon Ute. Ford Australia will close local production in October 2016.
As is plain to see, the 2015 Falcon Ute takes its styling cues (picture shows XR6 Ute) from the Falcon sedan range and we reckon it looks great. While Ford Australia hasn’t released pricing (expect that early in October) it’s handed over all the details and inclusions for the ute range.
