Ford hopes a less-is-more approach will lure punters to its new B-max MPV, unique in the supermini segment for having a big hole in the central cockpit instead of a structural pillar. The result is a flexible people mover that's a doddle to load with kids or cargo, Ford claims, thanks to its pillarless opening and sliding rear door. The ...

This is the new Ford Kuga, unveiled on the eve of the 2012 Geneva motor show. The new Ford Kuga was previewed by the Vertrek concept, and we’ve already seen it in production form as the Escape 4x4 for the North American market, but it’s finally here in European guise.

Ben Pulman, 05 March 2012 18:00

This is the new Ford Fiesta ST, unveiled on the eve of the 2012 Geneva motor show. It’s a 178bhp hot hatch, with a turbocharged 1.6-litre engine. And it’s real? The new Ford Fiesta ST isn’t another concept? It’s real – we saw a three-door Fiesta ST concept at the 2011 Frankfurt show, and a five-door version at the 2011 LA ...

Ford has today opened up its new B-Max, literally. The new B-Max is almost a wanton show-off next to the Fusion that it replaces. It's a mini-MPV with sliding rear doors, a bit like those on the ill-fated Peugeot 1007. They're more normally found on full-size or compact MPVs, such as Ford's own C-Max range. So what's so clever about the Ford B-Max's ...

Ford B-Max (2012) - first photos of the production car

Tim Pollard, 01 February 2012 09:39

Ford will slide the covers off this production B-Max mini MPV at the 2012 Geneva motor show. It's little changed from 2011's B-Max concept car. The B-Max essentially replaces the fuddy-duddy (but quite strong-selling) Fusion in Europe and is one of the key reasons why we're not getting the EcoSport baby SUV shown at the Delhi motor show in January ...

Direct injection petrol and diesel, hybridisation, downsizing, turbocharging, twin-charging the list of efficiency-boosting, fuel saving features being offered in new cars is becoming so long, buying a new one is like revising for exams. Is there room for another? Apparently so, but since there’s no official name for it yet we’ll call it ‘super-downsizing’ or in other words, using a ...

Ford Mondeo/Fusion unveiled at 2012 Detroit show

Tim Pollard, 09 January 2012 05:00

Ford unveiled its new 2013 Mondeo at the Detroit auto show - the new Mondeo is in fact now a Fusion in Euro drag.

Ford has shown the new EcoSport concept car – a showcase for a potential new small SUV. Ford calls it 'a new compact SUV.' It's based on Fiesta running gear, to give you an idea of the baby 4x4's footprint. And the best news? Ford plans to sell a car very like this, as the company continues to expand its ...
