In an effort to revitalize the market and introduce something new and revolutionary, Ford released the first generation Ford Tempo in 1983 to great success. Created as a replacement to Ford's Fairmont model, the Ford Tempo's design and specifications were planned to appeal to people who valued the environment but at the same time, mindful of the aesthetics and practicality of a car. The Ford team added many changes to the usual car platform, such as a more modern design and a specially-made engine. The Ford Tempo wowed and satisfied the customers so much that in the span of its production, it has remained within the top five of the list of best selling cars. On its first year of production alone, a staggering 107,000 coupe models and 295,000 sedan models were sold. The first generation Ford Tempo released in 1983 was vastly different compared to its predecessor, the Ford Fairmont. The Ford team's goal was to make a car that was fuel efficient, ergonomic, and had an aerodynamic design. This led to several innovations that were never seen before in other car models such as a 60 degree rear and front windshield that improved airflow, aircraft-inspired door frames that were wrapped around the car roof to improve sealing, and a specially-designed engine, the 2.3 L HSC Ford_HSC_engine inline four-cylinder gasoline engine with a one-barrel carburetor. One can also opt to choose a Mazda-built four cylinder diesel engine. Partnered with either engine is a 4-speed IB4 manual transmission, a 5-speed MTX-III manual transmission or the standard 3-speed FLC automatic. Aside from these changes, the interior of the car also featured a user-friendly gauge layout, with all the switches and panels easily reachable by the car owner. Adding to the Tempo's popularity were the smart changes made to the car in 1986. These included changes to the car's headlights that required only the bulb to be replaced if broken, a restyled grille which closely resembled the popular Taurus, and a sharper rear end. The 2.3 L four-cylinder carburetor was replaced with a new Central Fuel Injection that added to the car's fuel performance. Other trim versions of the first generation Tempo were also introduced to the market and these included the L and GL models, the luxury LX model and the sport model, the GLX. In 1988, Ford released the second generation Tempo which had a markedly similar look to the then vastly popular Taurus. The front end of the car was completely restyled, with the grille having three horizontal bands and the Ford logo at the center. It also boasted a more stylish rear, updated windows, and an all new instrument panel. The luxury model, LX and AWD received chrome and wood interiors, as well as chrome trims on the outside of the cars. The 3.0 L V6, was introduced as an option for the GL and LX models in 1992. Several trim versions were introduced to the market before production stopped in March, 1994. These included the second generation L and GL models, the GL Premier, the AWD version, the LX version, and the GLS models.The Tempo is one of Ford's crowning glories. Whatever the model or generation, the Tempo always provided satisfaction to its owner, may it be in the beauty and modernity of the cars, or the performance of its engines. The popularity of the Tempo alone is a testament to its enduring qualities. . Headlights by State:
