New C-MAX is a compact Multi-Activity-Vehicle (MAV) that has the dynamism of a sports car. With great handling, it lets you take control of tight corners, power down the straights and take command of the streets.

But new C-MAX is more than great fun to drive. With a cool, sculpted design, ample new technology and a stylish new interior with all the stowage you need, it’s ready for anything life can throw at it.

Great handling

With its energetic handling, new C-MAX is a fantastic drive. It’s agile, nimble and handles brilliantly. So unlike the kids, it’s always well behaved. The Control Blade independent rear suspension with an ultra stiff body and wider track, provides agile control and superb ride comfort, plus a quieter, more refined cabin. Electronic-Hydraulic Power Assisted Steering (EHPAS) means your drive comes with a lighter touch giving you more control when parking and precise control at speed.

Exterior

New C-MAX shares many new styling features with their award-winning Ford S-MAX, which won Car of the Year 2007 for bold looks that match its driving ability. New front styling with a well-defined grille and clean lines give it a sporty look. The large optional new Panoramic glass roof floods the interior with light and adds an architectural touch. In another first for Ford, tail-lamp strips featuring LED technology provide a contemporary look and practical function at the rear.

Interior

It has a five-seater design that’s sleek, modern and flexible, starting with a contemporary new centre console. Luxurious, sculpted sports seats and an extending armrest place you in comfort to enjoy new C-MAX’s agile drive.

And while you’re looking forward to the next corner, there’s plenty to keep the family entertained. Like a Sony 6-CD player and an MP3 player socket for great sounds all the way. Smart stowage keeps everything neat and tidy and the Comfort Seat System (can be arranged to accommodate all kinds of passenger and storage variations, so you’ll always come out smiling.

Technology

Ford have introduced many bright new technologies for new C-MAX. In a first for Ford, high density Bi-Xenon headlamps now use ultra-modern light strips for a distinctive intense beam. At the rear, the latest LED technology means you can be seen, even from a distance. Also available is the new Adaptive Front Lighting System that moves the light beam as you steer to improve visibility, plus rain sensing wipers and Voice Control with Bluetooth. There’s even a KeyFree system that automatically unlocks the doors and lets you start the car with the key fob still in your pocket.

Safety

New C-MAX has an impressive list of active and passive safety technologies ready to spring into action to keep you and your family safe from harm. Ford’s unique Intelligent Protection System (IPS) constantly watches over the vehicle. If required, it activates the most appropriate safety system – from airbags to collapsible pedals – in a split-second.
