The Ford Torino is an automobile that was produced by Ford for the
North American market between 1968 and 1976. It was a competitor in
the intermediate market segment. The car was named after the city
of Turin (Torino, in Italian), considered "the Italian Detroit".
The Torino was initially an upscale variation of the intermediate
sized Ford Fairlane. After 1968, the Fairlane name was retained for
the base models with lower levels of trim than those models which
wore the Torino name. During this time, the Torino was considered a
subseries to the Fairlane. By 1970 Torino had become the primary
name for Ford's intermediate, and the Fairlane was now a subseries
of the Torino. In 1971 the Fairlane name was dropped altogether,
and all Ford intermediates were called Torino. This name was one of
several originally proposed for the Mustang while in development.
The Torino was essentially a twin to the Mercury Montego line.
Most Torinos were conventional cars, and generally the most popular
models were the four-door sedans and two-door hardtops. However,
Ford produced some high-performance versions of the Torino by
fitting them with large powerful engines, such as the 428 cu in
(7.0 L) and 429 cu in (7.0 L) "Cobra-Jet" engines. These cars are
classified as muscle cars. Ford also chose the Torino as the base
for its NASCAR entrants, and it has a successful racing
heritage.
