RTV
UTE
It’s unbelievable over rugged terrain.
The unbelievable Falcon RTV Ute is part workhorse, part mountain goat. It’s engineered to tackle rugged terrain thanks to its unique high ride suspension, underbody protection shields, differential locking system and ABS with Electronic Brakeforce Distribution. There’s even a choice of a Cab Chassis or Styleside Box with both providing a full one tonne payload to help you get the job done.

Falcon E-Gas - Optional Feature
Falcon E-Gas is meaner, leaner and definitely greener. With an output of 156kW the Falcon E-Gas gives you plenty of green power. Better still, it also gives you plenty of savings on fuel costs.
With Falcon E-Gas, you'll save up to 38% compared with petrol or approximately $25.25+ per tank. Check out how lean Falcon E-Gas is by using the Cost Saving Calculator. As well as saving fuel, LPG has been consistently shown to produce extremely low emissions of air toxics compared with diesel and gasoline.*
Because Falcon E-Gas vehicles are purpose designed and built on the same line as regular production models, the engine is fully LPG compatible and fully integrated with Falcon's engine management system and instrumentation.
Hi-Ride Suspension
Tackling rugged terrain is easy with a high ride suspension on RTV models that helps avoid grounding and allows for steeper approach and departure angles.
Underbody Protection Shields
Armour shields for added underbody protection on RTV models provide extra peace of mind in extreme situations.
Differential Locking System
Remote Differential Locking System switch on RTV models provides 'shift on the fly' capability.
New improved 4-speed auto
BF Falcon Ute's optional 4-speed automatic now offers silkier shift quality with less busyness between third and fourth when travelling at lower speed.
The 4-speed also benefits from the 'Grade Control Logic' feature which assists with braking and speed control when you're descending steep roads, resulting in smoother motoring.
In addition to this, Sequential Sports Shift gives you the choice of complete manual control over gear selection. Alternatively, you can opt for full automatic mode and have Adaptive Shift intuitively adopt a shift pattern to suit your driving style.
