Photos of the Ford C-MAX

Looks good to you? Then don't mind my opinion.

Very similar to that in the new Ford Escape. Available only in this color combo.

Okay, maybe it's not ugly. But form certainly doesn't deviate much from function.

Feels much stronger than the powertrain in a Prius. But mpg well below EPA ratings.

My least favorite angle. Why is the upper grille opening necessary? It doesn't look good.

Less dramatic angle, even plainer.

The truncated rear end doesn't work.

The Grand C-MAX we almost got has much better proportions.

A little busy, but I like the look. Many padded surfaces, quality ambiance.

My favorite instrument configuration includes a tach.

Almost perfect! Unlike other hybrids, Ford's newest provide very clear braking feedback.

Plenty of room, but too low.

Note raised floor, to clear battery pack.

High floor, to clear battery pack, but second row folds perfectly flat.
