As Ford details and expands its European line up, the company is having an exciting month with a host of redesigned and refreshed models debuted in 2014 Paris Motor Show. This event is perhaps one of the largest and most prominent of the automotive 2014 calendar year. In a sea of advanced production and new concept vehicles, the all new Ford S MAX was shown alongside the redesigned C MAX and Grand C MAX as well as the brand-new Ford Mustang. The show also unveiled Ford’s new Focus ST and Focus ST Diesel, and Ford’s all new Edge, the company’s leading innovative design in Ford SUV selection.
Ford’s S MAX had already earned the prestige of being one of the most excellent multi-purpose vehicles on the market, and with the car’s fresh renovation, Ford plans to take that reputation one step higher. The esteemed family friendly vehicle has been on the market for nearly a decade, with a mini facelift in 2009. Now the Ford S MAX exciting makeover has added practicality, safety and technology to a model that has stayed relatively the same size with the same exceptional fuel efficiency. It is not yet determined if this model will be made available in the United States.
The Ford C MAX will be available globally, but not until late 2016. Updates to the C-MAX include design and internal material changes as well as two different engine choices: a 1.5 liter EcoBoost and a 1.5 liter turbocharged diesel. The vehicle will also be quieter than before due to a change in sound silencing acoustic components and thicker glass.
The 2015 Ford Mustang is coming to showrooms here, and the unveiling of it at the 2014 Paris Motor Show was the first time European public had ever seen the make and model. The revered breed is now in it’s sixth generation and for the first time ever Ford makers have added independent rear suspension, making this the models first extensive revamp in a decade. Ford has also reworked the Mustangs front suspension, and included electrically assisted steering and a new muscular sub frame, making for a smooth and secure and exciting joyride. The European lineups are packed with a 5.0L V8 and a new 2.3L Ecoboost 4 cylinder. We are looking forward more than ever 2015. It’s going to be a big year for us here and overseas.
