caption_attribution_description: English: 1973 Ford Corcel Luxo - first year of front facelift, a bit more squared and muscular in appearance
context_page_description: The Ford Corcel is a car which was sold by Ford do Brasil in Brazil, Chile, Uruguay and Venezuela. It was also assembled in Venezuela. The French-influenced styling of the Corcel was unique to Brazil until late 1977. From this year, the redesigned Corcel II bore a strong resemblance to the European Ford Escort and Ford Cortina of same era, but its Renault underpinnings remained the same. The Corcel was eventually replaced by the Del Rey, which was originally introduced as the sedan/coupe version of the Corcel.
context_section_description: The facelifted Corcel I (sometimes called the "Mark 1½") arrived in 1973 and had a more aggressive look compared to the more conservative 1968 version. Some of the L and all GT versions were also equipped with a new, bored out 1.4-litre (1372 cc) version of the existing engine. Claimed power for the regular Corcel was 75 hp (56 kW) (SAE gross), with 85 hp (63 kW) on tap at 5400 rpm from the "XP" engine used in the GT, with its double-barrel carburettor. For SAE net, these figures became 72 hp (54 kW) and 77 hp (57 kW).
