On its  sixth and last restyling, Ford tried to bring its design in line, as it is sold along its more modern "siblings", the Ford  Taunus, Sierra, and later the Escort.
Changes include new bumpers with rubber strips and rubber end caps, new large rectangular taillights with amber turn signals, bronze-tinted glass replaced green, and a larger trunk by reconfiguring the trunk floor and repositioning the spare tyre, and other minor cosmetic changes.
The Rural continued to use the original taillights.
The Taxi and Sprint versions were dropped, and the Futura was changed into the Ghia.
A 2.3-litre four-cylinder petrol engine was available, as was, as of 1988, a rare 2.4-litre diesel.
The diesel, a 70 hp (52 kW) Italian-made VM HR492, was installed by Borward Puntana, but as they were unable to provide engines at the pace needed by Ford, the project soon came to a halt.
Most of the diesels built were Ranchero pickups.
The pickup truck, capable of a 715 kg (1,576 lb) max load, continued to be available with the 3.3- and 3.6-litre sixes, as well as the new four.

The 2.3 offered 90 PS (66 kW), while the smaller six has only 84 PS (62 kW), albeit with a higher torque and at a more leisurely engine speed.
The unpopular (due to fuel economy worse than that of the 3-litre six) four-cylinder was available only with a four-speed manual, rather than the three-speed manual of the sixes.
The four-cylinder was shared with the Argentinian-built Taunus and Sierras.
The larger 3.6, the only engine available to the Ghia, has 109 PS (80 kW) except in the high-performance Ghia SP, where 140 PS (103 kW) were on tap due to twin carburettors.
Introduced in 1982, there was also a low-compression version of the 3.6 with 103 PS (76 kW).
In 1989, the new Max Econo version of the 188 cid/3-litre engine became available, with better fuel economy at the cost of performance.
Chrome was removed in 1990, and the Falcon was finally discontinued after 1991.
