The new BA Falcon Ute will offer the ultimate combination of heavy duty work tool and high performance recreation vehicle.

Building on the reputation of the market-leading AU range of Falcon Utes, the BA Falcon Ute will continue to offer the choice of Supercab or Chassis Cab, payloads up to one tonne and towing capacity up to 2300 kg.

Powered by a stunning new range of six-cylinder and V8 engines, new Falcon Ute will give buyers a wealth of riches to choose from.

Starting point is the new Barra 182 six-cylinder engine, the most technologically advanced to be designed and built by Ford Australia's engineers.

Boasting double overhead camshafts, dual VCT, 24 valves and Electronic Throttle Control, the Barra 182 will offer Ute drivers a class-leading 182 kW of power and a thundering 380 Nm of torque.

Matched with infinitely variable valve timing, this ensures great performance low down in the rev range for optimum towing performance, and miserly fuel consumption at cruising speeds.

LPG fans will benefit from the technology invested in the Barra engine program with the new E-Gas engine, offering the best of both worlds. Boasting an impressive 156 kW and 372 Nm, the E-Gas BA Falcon Ute has all the economic benefits of LPG without compromising on performance.

XR6 Falcon Ute owners can tick the options box on engine and have their vehicle motivated by the brilliant new Barra 240T. This turbocharged and intercooled engine churns out a stunning 240 kW of power, while peak torque of 450 Nm arrives at just 2000 rpm ? staying at that level right through to 4500 rpm.

Boasting unique styling and an optional hard tonneau cover, the XR6 Falcon Ute is set to steal the show in town or country.

V8 owners will enjoy the benefits of the new Barra 220. This multi-valve, overhead camshaft engine is good for 220 kW and a healthy 472 Nm of torque.

Inside, BA Falcon Ute buyers will revel in the luxury of all new seats and a totally redesigned interior that complements perfectly Falcon Ute's unique Supercab design.

A new Interior Command Centre dominates the interior, controlling all audio and heating/cooling features. The ICC has been designed to resemble an expensive European hi-fi and offers brilliant sound quality. It has also been ergonomically designed to be easy to use with clever, intuitive features.

"The Falcon Ute is one of Australian motoring's genuine success stories, enjoying unprecedented levels of dominance in the sales market," said 4WD and Commercial Vehicle Marketing Manager, Kevin Lillie.

"To improve on that we had to offer an exceptional ute, and the BA Falcon Ute certainly delivers on that front.

"The list of changes is enormous ? all aimed at providing the ultimate tool for work and play," he said.
