The Crown Victoria LX is equipped with a Ford 4.6 liter eight-cylinder engine that utilizes 16 valves. The engine is mated to a Ford 4-speed Transmission. This is a long-standing favorite for buyers in the Sedan arena.

Steering control is handled through a power-steering gear-style configuration. The Crown Victoria has power-assisted brakes, with Non-ABS support. The front brakes are disc while the rear brakes are disc. The car uses coil front springs and coil in the rear.

Vehicle Statistics

The Crown Victoria is 212.00 inches long, 78.20 inches wide, and 56.80 inches high. It has a wheelbase of 114.70 inches. It is able to seat 6 comfortably.

There is a 36,000 mile, 36 month warranty with this vehicle, including a powertrain warranty of 36,000/36 miles/months. This is normal for this price range.

The original manufacturer suggested retail price (MSRP) was $24,370 when new, with a dealer invoice cost of $23,005. This price was in line with the industry average price for a 4-door Sedan.

Fuel Efficiency

The fuel system for the 2001 Crown Victoria is a SFI design, running on CNG fuel. The fuel flow is regulated by a electronic system and is a fuel-injected MFI design. The storage capacity of the fuel tank is 19.00 gallons.

The 2001 Crown Victoria gets 23 - 25 miles/gallon on the highway and only 15 - 18 in the city. This is exceptional for a sedan car.

We Think...

The 2000 model began the promise of the Ford Crown Victoria. The 2001 expanded on this success and has proven to be a strong seller in most markets. Even with strong competition from other manufacturers Ford hopes that the Crown Victoria LX will continue to be a profitable vehicle.
