Ford - Five Hundred - Brochure - 2007 - 2007

Gazed 2007 five hundred into her eyes and asked her 20 years ago today. It was a Friday too. 3 children, 2 careers, 6 moves later, I asked her to do it all over again. BOLDMOVES ©2006 Ford Motor Company 07FIVECAT Litho in USA on recycled paper (20% post consumer) fordvehicles.com 2007 Five Hundred It’s more than just comfortable, confident and convenient. It’s safe. Quite honestly, it’s one of the safest cars in America. And for good reason. Ford Five Hundred’s innovative vehicle structure earned it the highest crash test safety ratings — 5 Stars in all 4 categories — from the government’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). Only a select number of cars can lay claim to that distinction. Even more impressive, that 5-Star status for Five Hundred was achieved without front-seat side airbags, which are available if you so choose. How much does 5-Star safety mean to you, your family and your friends? Think about it the next time you see someone run a red. Then feel that much better knowing you, and those close to you, are well-fortified in Ford Five Hundred.

In the Limited, you’re treated to the luxury of a leather-trimmed, 8-way power, heated driver’s seat with 2-user memory — settings can be recalled for the heated sideview mirrors, as well. Leather trim extends to the shifter and steering wheel, which includes a second set of major audio controls placed right at your fingertips. With Dual-zone Electronic Automatic Temperature Control, you and your front passenger (who’s also treated to a power seat with 2 built-in heat modes) can choose settings independently; the system maintains temperatures automatically. Even the guests in Five Hundred’s roomiest-in-class rear seat are pampered with an exclusive set of adjustable climate vents. Uncommon courtesy abounds. Navigate Nationwide. Use the available DVD Navigation System (shown left in center console). Its generous 6.5" color LCD illuminates sharp color graphics and step-by-step, touch-screen prompts. More than 20 different functions – audible and visual – are readily accessible. Atmosphere On High. At a touch, fully retract the optional power moonroof’s tinted glass or simply tilt it up.

Interior volume measures a phenomenal, bestin-class 129.5 cu. ft. And when you flatten the split-folding rear seatback and fold-down front-passenger seat, Five Hundred suddenly asserts its sensational versatility — giving you the ability to carry items up to 9' in length. However, you may not have to use that elongated space very often; the trunk’s low liftover height and big-time cargo capacity make way for up to 8 full-sized golf bags. Stow smaller-scale items within each door’s integrated holder, the locking glove compartment, the center console, or a covered storage bin that’s cleverly integrated atop the instrument panel. 8 beverage holders are also part and parcel of Five Hundred. Always Have a Backup Plan. An optional Reverse Sensing System helps when you’re slowly backing up or parallel parking. The system senses objects up to 6' behind your car, beeping more rapidly the closer you get.

Five Hundred’s multilink independent rear suspension puts a formidable 24 tuned bushings (30 bushings on AWD models) into action to cushion forces. Its MacPherson strut front suspension – with a rearward-facing L-arm – employs an entirely different set of bushings. Quite the contingent for comfort: lean is minimized and road imperfections are shrugged off. rear taking the bump. Specifically tuned spring rates help achieve superb ride and precise handling characteristics. A 6-speed automatic transmission makes maximum use of torque to bring the front-wheel-drive Five Hundred rapidly up to speed. When less torque is required, 2 overdrive gears greatly benefit fuel economy. Smart 6-speed technology actually “learns” your driving habits over time and adjusts shift points accordingly. The proven 3.0L Duratec 30 DOHC V6 engine enlists sound-dampening magnesium cam covers and response-infused, drive-by-wire Electronic Throttle Control for quiet, optimal performance. 203 hp and 207 lb.-ft. of torque have never felt this good. Terrific Fuel Economy, Plus. EPA-estimated fuel economy for Five Hundred with front-wheel drive (FWD) is 21 mpg city/29 hwy.; for All-Wheel Drive (AWD) it’s a best-in-class 19 mpg city/25 hwy. In addition, the Duratec 30 V6 doesn’t require a tune-up until 100,000 miles, has a 150,000-mile drive belt, and its gaskets and seals are rated for 15 years of use. The 6-speed transmission fluid should perform for 10 years or 150,000 miles, whichever comes first. And the CVT is maintenance-free for its first 60,000 miles. That’s ease of ownership. 7 www.fordvehicles.com Five Hundred Limited in Dark Blue Pearl Metallic, aglow at twilight All-purpose all-wheel drive On any road. In any weather. During any maneuver. If anything compromises traction, nothing performs like optional All-Wheel Drive (AWD). When driving conditions are normal, AWD functions Awd at the Ready, Even When the Going Gets Dry. If you buy into the misconception that AWD only benefits you on slippery roads, you’ll miss the whole point. Over varying surfaces, during rapid acceleration and while cornering quickly, AWD seamlessly distributes power between the front and rear wheels to give you increased control and performance. You probably won’t be aware it’s working – you’ll just savor the rush. in front-wheel-drive mode. But as soon as a hint of wheel slip is detected, the class-exclusive HALDEX® AWD system immediately goes into action. Within milliseconds, power is passed to the wheels with the most traction. Traction Control works in concert with AWD, distributing up to 100% of the engine’s available torque to a single wheel with the best grip. It’s all about keeping you going where you want to go. HALDEX is a registered trademark owned by Haldex, AB. As the editors of automotive.com can testify: Seamless-as-CVT Response. Unlike standard transmissions, the Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) – that comes with AWD models – has no gears. An intricate steel-link belt (shown left) connects 2 variable-size, high-strength steel-alloy pulleys. One pulley handles input from the engine while the other sends it to the drive wheels. The ratio of the 2 pulleys is continuously varied to keep your engine in its most efficient range, and your drive smooth and velvet-like. “... we did take time to try an All-Wheel-Drive Five Hundred on a dirt hill in a rock quarry. While another All-Wheel-Drive vehicle spun its wheels and struggled mightily to climb the slippery hill, the All-Wheel-Drive Five Hundred sedan went right up and over.” 9 www.fordvehicles.com Five Hundred Limited in Black, with optional AWD sure-footedness One of the safest you can get You heard it once, but it doesn’t hurt to hear it again: Ford Five Hundred is among a select few cars in the Large Car class to earn the highest crash test safety ratings* — 5 Stars in every category — from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. As if that wasn’t sterling enough, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety evaluated front, side and rear crashworthiness** for Five Hundred as Good — the best rating possible. Talk about a safe bet. *Without front-seat side airbags, which are part of the optional safety packages. **With optional safety packages, which include front-seat side airbags and the Safety CanopyTM System. ´´´´´ C B A The Tripod Design in the front structure A channels crash forces upward and downward into a high-strength steel “ring of protection” surrounding the passenger compartment. D B An Adaptive Steering Column minimizes the effect of crash forces, collapsing in different ways depending on the driver’s-seat position and safety belt status. On AWD models, even the patent-pending driveshaft is collapsible. C SPACE ArchitectureTM (Side Protection And A Volvo-Inspired Chassis is the basis of Five Hundred’s solid structure. Crash modeling on a Cray supercomputer determined that mounting the front bumper plate only to the outer portion of the frame rails promotes a more even collapse of energy-absorbing structures and reduces passenger-compartment intrusion. ® Personal Safety System ® for driver and front passenger includes: dual-stage front airbags, safety belt pretensioners, safety belt energy-management retractors, safety belt usage sensors, driver’s-seat position sensor, crash severity sensor, restraint control module and Front-Passenger Sensing System. 2-Row Safety Canopy System – With a Class-Exclusive Rollover Detection Sensor – is part of the optional safety packages, Cabin Enhancement) is a class exclusive comprised of advanced structural elements – including a hydroformed cross-car beam running between door frames to strengthen each bodyside.
