Ford's BackTrack on Sedans
Ford's BackTrack on Sedans - Once a dominant force in value-packed sedans, Ford made the controversial decision to discontinue them in 2018, focusing on higher-profit SUVs and trucks.
In this video, we explore Ford's rich history in the sedan market, from Alan Mulally’s 'One Ford' vision to Mark Fields' departure, and how Jim Hackett's decision led to the end of Ford’s iconic sedan lineup. Now, CEO Jim Farley is suggesting a return to sedans, aiming to rekindle America's love for these vehicles. Could this move bring Ford back into the sedan spotlight?

    The V8 Mustang 4 door sedan might be the best bet for now, as people would want to something to be fast, sporty, and reliable. Heck calling it the Falcon may make even more sense as a revival to what we had in the 1970s, or more recently what used to be available in Austrailia. Now is a really good time for Falcon to come into play. Then we evolve to add more sedans back overtime. I personally want the Focus to come next with a better built transmission. I as a college student currently drive a 2014 Ford Focus SE Hatchback (one day I'll get that Mustang). The Focus is a very reliable car with the exception of it's dual clutch 6 seed automatic transmission. If Ford were to use high quality materials in the transmission, then we would be golden! Fusion is a very good contender as welll. Fiesta? Given gas prices are high right now, some people would be up for a compact sedan/hatchback like that. It would probably sell the least out of the other sedans/hatchbacks, but I would imagine they would still be profitable in the US. My mom drives a 2013 Ford Fiesta Titanium Sedan. Both the Focus and Fiesta have been pretty good to us so far. I got the battery and horn replaced in the Focus.

    The Maverick showed Ford that people want affordable small trucks. Unfortunately the demand is eroding the affordable aspect but it could return to that $22k price tag if competitors enter the market. I could see being in a good position if they seriously focus on sedans as other manufacturers like Subaru are eliminating their sedans.

ALL of these guys need to realize, though (EPA INCLUDED!) not all potential buyers are the size of an NBA player that need to drive in a perpetual "frankenstein's monster" pose just to be vaguely comfortable. what the US needs is something in the old Compact size range for older drivers. some of us DO get tired of having to be as stretchy as Simone Biles *just to get in the vehicle*! the US manufacturers ALSO have to realize that transmissions need to be rigged European Style so that the economy peak is reached at CITY average speed, not Interstate.

      It's stunning to me that ford can go from absolutely nailing it with the 2v 4.6, and then turn around and make an open-deck turbo engine with a wet timing belt... They've proven that they know better, so it must be intentional. People often accuse me of being a "Ford guy" but honestly, once my vic dies I'll probably never own another ford! I'll be waiting quite a while before that happens though lol

    Stretch the Mustang platform, add two doors, call it a Ford Marauder and instantly gain the marketshare left up for grabs after Dodge Charger was discontinued. Rebody the Maverick and call it the Taurus, add a wagon option too. Don't even try to make an economy class car. The Japanese has this beat. I think this is how Ford can return to the sedan market without risking too much.

      @@TheAceKannon The Falcon in the US was more of an economy car. The cool one was in Australia. It doesn't feel right. Marauder however was a performance variant of the Panther platform. Also, matches between with the established Mustang and Maverick nameplates currently in use. Plus, being a "4 door Mustang" it makes sense to reuse Marauder.

      I like that idea. They can call it Falcon, Galaxie, Fairmont, etc and aim it squarely at the hybrid and gas charger

      the Falcon and Galaxy nameplates are owned by Ford's other markets, they're not coming back.
