Ford tried to keep up with the European executive car market and made a final attempt with the Scorpio lineup in 1994, but the low sales made the blue-oval badge drop the lineup.

Just two years after the first facelift, Ford introduced another refresh for its European flagship range, the Scorpio.

Ford introduced the Scorpio as its flagship model for the European market in 1985, but it only made it a hatchback. A mistake which was corrected in 1989 when it launched the first facelift.
