The 2002 Ford Windstar has been the recipient of high praise
for its sensibility, performance, and stellar government
crash test ratings over several years. Popular with families,
it continues to improve and offer new features and colors
to effectively compete with even the best vans out there
in its class.
Available Models
Four tremendously versatile models hit the market
the year - the 2002 Ford Windstar LX, Windstar SE, Windstar
SEL, and 2002 Ford Windstar Limited. The LX has a brand
new look this year, sporting standard headlights, and painted
body-color front and rear fascias. For those on the lookout
for more luxuries, take a good look at the well-appointed
2002 Ford Windstar Limited.
Interior Features
In addition to a standard audio system, you may
opt for the Autovision Video Entertainment System that includes
6.4-inch overhead console-mounted monitor plus removable
videocassette player. For peace and quiet, the system comes
with two headphone sets. Among the convenient aspects of
the Autovision package are a remote control, side pocket
videotape storage, and eight-foot headphone cords for those
seated in the third row.
The 2002 Ford Windstar has loads of interior cargo space,
and is graced with amenities such as garage door opener,
driver's seat memory, and memory functions for the accelerator
and brake pedals. The tilt steering wheel with memory comes
as an option.
Exterior Features
Along with some updated physical changes, the
2002 Ford Windstar features dual sliding doors plus the
handy rear liftgate so that you can load and unload effortlessly.
Power dual sliding doors are available as a convenient option
to make matters even easier, especially when your hands
are full. Choose from a new selection of colors for 2002.
A roof rack is also offered for the transport of extra cargo,
equipment, or sporting goods.
Performance
All the 2002 Ford Windstar models boast a 3.8-litre
engine that powers along to the tune of 200 horsepower and
240 lbs-ft of torque. Built with front-wheel drive, each
vehicle features a 26-gallon fuel tank that allows you to
travel 500 miles of highway before you have to pull over
to the next gas station. This classifies the Windstar as
an Ultra Low Emissions Vehicle country-wide.
The list of performance features continues with standard
equipment such as front disc and rear drum brakes, plus
the all-new AdvanceTrac Interactive Vehicle Dynamics System
which couples with the ABS brakes at certain moments to
maximize control.
Safety and Security
The Windstar has received five-star government
crash test ratings for seven years in the driver and front-passenger
protection category. It also received a double five-star
rating in side-impact tests when the vehicle is equipped
with side impact air bags.
Standard safety equipment on the Ford Windstar includes
anti-lock brakes, AdvanceTrac interactive, electronic crash
severity sensor, and strategic crumple zones. Inside, occupants
are protected with a driver depowered air bag, passenger
depowered air bag, three-point seatbelts, child seat tethers
and anchors, and child safety locks.
Another interesting safety fact is that the Windstar is
equipped with a front passenger weight sensor that automatically
turns off the passenger side air bag and side air bag if
the passenger is below a certain weight.
