The redesigned 2005 Ford Mustang coupe will debut, as will the 2005 Five
Hundred sedan and 2005 Freestyle wagon. Also on the floor will be the
re-engineered 2005 Focus and mid-engine 2005 Ford GT.
Ford is focusing on cars in 2004.
The Mustang styling is reminiscent of the 1967-69 Mustang. With the
European-styled Five Hundred, Ford is hoping to regain momentum in the
mid-sized sedan market. The Freestyle, with three rows of seats, will
compete against vehicles such as the Chrysler Pacifica. Sales of all three
begin in the fall.
Ford will assemble the Five Hundred, Freestyle and related 2005 Mercury
Montego sedan at its Chicago assembly plant. The Montego is expected to
debut in February at the Chicago show.
Ford also will introduce a small SUV concept and a special-edition F-150
pickup at the Detroit show.
