Mondeo Models and History

I have attempted here to collate a list of what models were offered at what dates and what equipment they included as standard. As usual I may be wrong. Please feel free to let me know anything that is suspect.

PLEASE NOTE that whilst vehicle specifications on this web site have been obtained from generally reliable sources, they cannot be guaranteed and the following must be taken into account :-

Every effort is taken to provide accurate information but, due to the diversity of maker’s model types including variations of gearbox, engine power output and weight, the data on this website is to be used as a guide only.

Before relying on any specific information, please check with the manufacturer.

Each set of specifications relate to a vehicle at the time of manufacture and do not take into account any modifications, abuse, accident or other damage or the results of wear and tear.

Mark 1 Mondeo March 1993 - 1996

Introduced in March 1993, the Ford Mondeo models were available in 4 door Saloon, 5 door hatchback and 5 door estate configurations. All feature a high standard of equipment, with driver/passenger safety in accidents being a particularly high design priority. All models are fitted with features such as side impact bars in all doors, "anti submarine" seats combined with seat belt grabbers and pre-tensioners, and an airbag fitted to the steering wheel. Vehicle security is enhanced with an in-built alarm system and engine immobiliser being fitted as standard, as well as double locking doors with shielded locks, and security coded audio equipment.

The four cylinder petrol engine was a new design, available in 1.6, 1.8 and 2.0 litre capacities. It is controlled by a sophisticated engine management system, which combines multi point sequential fuel injection and distributerless ignition systems with evaporative emissions control, exhaust gas re-circulation and three way regulated catalytic converter (with pulse air system for rapid warm up) to ensure that the vehicle complies with the most stringent of the emissions control standards in force, and yet provide the level of performance and economy expected.
