The Mark III Zephyr and Zodiac range was launched in 1966, completley restyled from the earlier generation though sharing some of its mechanical components, as well as the basic chassis design, with the Mark II models. The exterior was designed by Canadian Roy Brown who also designed the Edsel and the Cortina, Rather than continue the Consul name, Ford UK decided to call its replacement Zephyr 4, the 4 indicating that it still used the four-cylinder 1,703 cc. engine from Consul 375. A four-speed manual gearbox, now with synchromesh on all ratios, was standard, with overdrive or automatic transmission available as options. Disc brakes were standard.

The Zephyr Six and the Zodiac were powered by the Mark II Zephyr and Zodiacs 2,553 cc straight six engine
