The Ford Falcon (XH) is a commercial range of vehicles that was manufactured by Ford Australia from 1996 to 1999, as an upgrade to the XG series of utility and panel van models which were derived from the XF full-size car and had been marketed alongside the new series sedans since the EA26 project release in 1988. The XH incarnation brought closer levels of technology and comfort in comparison to the current sedan range on offer (EL), and was also the first Falcon utility vehicle to offer a V8 engine option in approximately fourteen years (more than four years later than the E series sedan range which reintroduced a V8 in 1992 in the form of the 5.0 (Windsor 302ci) sequential EFI V8 utilising EECIV engine management as seen in Ford US Mustang models).
