Ford design redesign

Kinetic: Mondeo's new-found style will spread across the FoMoCo world.

Ford design boss confirms global new style language and probably Jaguar, LR sale

9 November 2007

THE Ford Motor Co’s global design chief J Mays will reorganise the company’s styling departments as the Ford brand shifts to a single design language across the world – as seen on the just-launched Mondeo and the forthcoming 2008 Falcon.

A report in industry journal Automotive News this week quoted Mr Mays as saying that “everyone’s focus will be slightly shifted” but he refused to divulge details. He also said that the probable sale of Ford’s luxury brands Jaguar and Land Rover (and possibly Volvo, too) will change his focus.
