Abstract
The Ford Falcon is one of the last unique Australian carlines in current production. The various factors influencing the need for, and development of, an Australian car are addressed, including the operating environment, government regulations and consumer preferences. The progressive development of the Falcon to meet these overall requirements and the major design features and test criteria established to ensure product acceptance, particularly in the non-urban areas of the country, is also reviewed.
