World's third largest auto-maker after Toyota and GM, Ford is head-quartered in Dearborn, Michigan. Henry Ford founded the company in 1903 which now encompasses respected global brands like Lincon, Mercury, Jaguar, Land Rover and Volvo and also enjoys a one-third controlling interest in Mazda. Debuting in India in 1998 with the Ford Escort, it gave exciting products like the Ikon that replaced the former in 2001, but still has to experience great sales numbers. Mondeo, Fusion, Fiesta and the Endeavour feature in the current line-up and Ford is trying to up its sleeve to become a very formidable brand in India.
