2015 Ford Falcon (FG X) Dimensions, Size & Specs

With mirrors opened, the 2015 Ford Falcon FG X measures 2100 mm (82.7 inches) in width. This is important to consider for tight parking spaces or narrow garages, as the width increases significantly beyond the body width when mirrors are extended.

The curb weight of the FG X Falcon ranges between 1656 to 1861 kg (3649 to 4103 lbs), depending on the trim and options. This weight contributes to a solid, stable ride, but may also affect fuel consumption and acceleration, balancing comfort with robust performance.

The 2015 Ford Falcon FG X offers a luggage capacity between 464 to 535 liters (16.4 to 18.9 cubic feet), providing ample space for groceries, luggage, or sports equipment. This makes it well-suited for families and long trips requiring generous cargo capability.

The FG X Falcon comes with rim sizes ranging from 16 inches (6.5J x 16) up to 19 inches (19, 19x9), and tire sizes from 215/60 R16 to 275/30 R19. Larger wheels and lower-profile tires generally improve handling but may reduce ride comfort, while smaller wheels aid in a smoother ride.

Standard residential garages typically have door openings around 2400 mm (94.5 inches) wide and 2100-2200 mm (82.7-86.6 inches) tall. With a width of 1868 mm (73.5 inches) not including mirrors, and 2100 mm (82.7 inches) including mirrors, the Ford Falcon FG X fits into a standard garage, though careful mirror folding is recommended to avoid damage.

The FG X Falcon is an updated generation of the FG Falcon, largely maintaining similar exterior dimensions with slight refinements. Both versions are close in length and width, but the FG X features refreshed styling and improved interior ergonomics. The FG X maintains the same broad footprint but with modernized design and tech upgrades.

The Ford Falcon FG X is comparable in size to the Holden Commodore VF, both full-size Australian sedans designed to offer spacious interiors. The Falcon measures 4949 mm in length compared to roughly 4878 mm for the Commodore, making the Falcon slightly longer. Width and height are also similar, with both vehicles targeting family and fleet buyers needing large, comfortable sedans.

The considerable size and curb weight (1656-1861 kg) of the FG X mean it tends towards a stable and comfortable ride, well-suited for long highway cruising and absorbing road imperfections. However, heavier mass and large frontal area affect fuel consumption negatively compared to smaller vehicles. Handling is confident but more in line with a traditional sedan feel rather than sporty agility.

At 1494 mm (58.8 inches) tall, the 2015 Ford Falcon FG X is not particularly tall by sedan standards and should fit comfortably in most underground or multi-level parking garages, which often have clearance allotments greater than 2 meters. Drivers should still check for height restrictions in older or more compact garages, though the car’s height rarely presents an issue.
