When was the Ford Topaz made?

The Ford Topaz was manufactured from 1984 to 1994. It was a compact car produced by the Ford Motor Company and was the Mercury Topaz’s counterpart. The production of the Ford Topaz ceased on May 20th, 1994, as consumer preferences began shifting towards larger vehicles, leading Ford to discontinue the Tempo and Topaz models.
The Ford Topaz was part of a resurgence strategy by Ford to provide more environmentally decent, fuel productive, and more modern styled varieties to contend with the European and Japanese imports. It was known for its practicality and durability, and it played a pivotal role in the success of these vehicles, consistently churning out thousands of units each year to meet the demands of a growing market.
The Ford Topaz was also offered in Mexico, where it was assembled and sold alongside the Ford Tempo at Ford’s Cuautitlán Assembly plant. The lower level of automation at that plant translated into higher assembly costs, making a Mexican-built Ford Topaz retail for about US$400 more than a more well-equipped US model with more effective pollution controls.
The Ford Topaz was replaced in 1995 by the “world car” platform for sale in North America as the Ford Contour and Mercury Mystique.
