Preview: 2005 Ford Five Hundred - The Car Connection
Those who recall the concept car from which it borrows its name will find the 2005 Ford Five Hundred to be a very different vehicle. It's a much more sedately styled sedan than the flashy show vehicle. That reflects the conservative nature of the typical mid-size buyer, insists Ford Design Director J Mays. The sedan's exterior dimensions are just a bit larger than the Taurus. But the two sedans are in a separate league when it comes to usable passenger and cargo space. The passenger compartment alone measures 128 cubic feet and though the new sedan is a foot shorter than the big Crown Victoria, the Five Hundred boasts twice the rear knee room - more, in fact, than a Rolls-Royce Phantom. To put that into human terms, a pro basketball player could sit in the back without having to do an impression of a human pretzel. The Five Hundred even offers an optional all-wheel-drive system. This electro-hydraulic Haldex system was heavily influenced by Ford's Swedish affiliate, Volvo. Buyers will have a choice of AWD or front-wheel-drive.
