The Ford Sierra, a car that redefined the definition of "aerodynamic" in the 1980s, made its debut in 1982 and was launched in the UK in 1985. The Sierra was a revolutionary model for Ford, introducing a sharp, sloping design that replaced the boxy look of its predecessor, the Cortina. It boasted a drag coefficient of just 0.34, a figure that was considered cutting-edge in its time. The Sierra was available in a range of body styles, including a two-door coupe, four-door saloon, five-door hatchback, and a three-door estate. This versatility, combined with its sleek design, made the Sierra a popular choice across Europe, particularly in the UK. Under the hood, the Sierra offered a range of petrol engines, from the economical 1.3L to the powerful 2.9L V6. Diesel options were also available, offering fuel efficiency for those seeking lower running costs. The Ford Sierra's success was also due to its innovative features, including its advanced suspension system, which provided a comfortable ride and precise handling. It was also one of the first cars to feature a fully galvanized body, offering excellent corrosion resistance for those living in areas with harsh weather conditions. Despite its popularity, the Sierra was not without its criticisms, particularly regarding its initial build quality and some of its engine options. However, its sleek design, practicality, and competitive pricing ensured its place in history as a significant model in Ford's lineup, paving the way for future aerodynamic designs and solidifying its place as a classic of the 1980s.
