Pioneering spirit. When you buy a Ford, you are assured to get high

American styling, engineering and originality.
Ford Tempo is just among the many excellent automobile belonging to the
Ford car line-up. It was launched in 1984 as a midsize car offered in
coupe and sedan body styles. It was believed to be similar with the
Mercury Topaz. The Tempo and the Topaz were the early illustrations of
the design philosophy that bring about the revolutionary Ford Taurus
way back in 1986. Both model shared Ford Escort’s lengthened platform.
The year it was introduced, front wheel drive and a 4-speed manual
transmission were standard and the “ATX” or the 3-speed automatic
transaxle is offered as an option. The Tempo received a minor redesign
in 1986. As a result, a 5-speed manual became standard and the US
models received standard Central Fuel Injection or CFI while models
marketed in Canada utilized a 1 barrel carburetor. A major redesign was
done in 1988 making the Tempo look like the Ford Taurus. The diesel
engine was significantly replaced by a MPFI or Multi-Port Fuel
Injection which comes standard on the gas straight-4 engine.
Ford Tempo was built in Oakville, Ontario Canada and in Kansas City,
MO. It belonged to the top five selling sedan in North America in the
late 1980s and the early 1990s. The tempo also tied with the Honda
Accord and Toyota Camry for the first place in J.D. powers and
Associates initial quality survey in 1992 model year. The production of
Ford Tempo was stopped in 1994 to give way to the 1995 Ford Contour.
