For 1985 the waterfall style grille of the Cougar was replaced with an egg crate design similar to Mercedes Benz, and the red taillamp lenses were replaced by a dark gray design. The interior underwent a complete redesign, with new door panels and dashboard, and 15 inch wheels became an option for the XR7. The turbocharged 2.3 L inline four was fitted to the XR7 from 1984 until 1986. The Cougar was a Fox platform luxury sports coupe, the counterpart of the Thunderbird, with a notchback roofline and GS, LS and XR7 trims.
