Ford produced three cars between 1932 and 1934: theModelB,Model18&Model40. These succeeded theModelA. The Model B continued to offer Ford's proven four cylinder and was available from 1932 to 1934. The V8 (Model 18 in 1932, Model 40 in 1933 & 1934) was succeeded by theModel48. It was the first Ford fitted with theflathead V‑8. In Europe, it was built slightly longer. The same bodies were available on both 4 cylinder Model Bs and V8 Model 18/40s. The company also replaced theModel AAtruck with theModel BB, available with either the four- or eight-cylinder engine.

Rather than just a much updated version of theModelA, Ford launched a completely new model for 1932. The V8 was marketed as the Model18 in its initial year, and commonly simply known as the Ford V‑8. It had the newflathead V8engine. The Model18 was the first low-priced, mass-marketed car to have a V8 engine, an important milestone inAutomotive industry in the United States. The 221 cu in (3.6 l) V8 was rated at 65hp (48kW) when introduced, but power increased significantly with improvements to the carburetor and ignition in later years. This engine choice was more popular than the four-cylinder, which was essentially a variant of the ModelA engine with improvements to balancing and lubrication.

Model B was derived with as few technical changes as possible to keep cost low. Other than the engine, and badging on headlamp support bar (later: grille) and hub caps, it was virtually indistinguishable from the V-8. Its intention was to be a price leader, and as it offered more than the popular Model A, this should have been a winning formula. In fact, the new and only slightly more expensive V-8 stole the show, and finally made it obsolete. The V8 engine was previously exclusive toLincolnproducts, which in 1932 switched to V12 engines only.

Although there is a certain visual similarity with the predecessorModelA, the car was new. While the ModelA has a simple frame with two straight longitudinal members, the new car got a longer wheelbase, and an outward curved, double-dropped chassis. In both models the fuel tank is relocated from the cowl as in ModelA and late ModelT, where its back formed the dash, to the lower rear of the car, as is typical in modern vehicles; thus requiring Ford to include an engine-driven fuel pump rather than rely on gravity feed. While the V8 was developed from scratch, the B just had an improved four-cylinder ModelA engine of 201cuin (3.29L)displacementproducing 50 horsepower (37kW; 51PS).
