2016 Ford C-Max



One of the latest editions is new 2016 Ford C-max. Ford C-Max is one of the most popular MPVs currently on sale in Europe. There are lots of reasons for the popularity of this car, most notable is the price, which makes this card very affordable and one of the cheapest in its class.

However, the situation is completely different in the United States, where C-Max is one of the worst selling Ford cars at the moment. The reason is simple and understandable – there is only one version of this car for North America – hybrid version. While hybrid cars have certain appeal among buyers, especially among those who are worried about ecology, these cars are not bestsellers.

However, it appears that the Ford has decided to correct this and make the 2016 Ford C-Max the same for everyone, meaning that the customers in United States, for example, will be able to choose from regular to hybrid version of this popular MPV. This is not the only change that Ford has in store for next generation C-Max – the car will be also changed on the outside and on the inside, where the cabin will get a complete redesign.
