Ford S-MAX review - CarBuyer
Full review: http://www.carbuyer.co.uk/reviews/ford/s_max/mpv/review There are plenty of boxy, dull to drive people carriers that claim to rival Ford's seven-seat S-MAX for practicality... But none are as good to look at, or feel as special from the driver's seat. Despite the generous dimensions, the S-MAX feels compact and nimble from behind the wheel. And although the two rearmost seats are for children only, they fold flat easily and there's a big boot.

Ford S-Max 2.0 TDCi Trend Full Review,Start Up, Engine, and In Depth Tour
Put aside your mom-mobile prejudices for a moment, and take a look at Ford's latest attempt at a minivan, the C-Max. Coming here in early 2012, our C-Max is called the Grand C-Max in Europe; over there, the plain C-Max name is applied to a shorter, five-seat version, which we won't be getting. Both share underpinnings with the 2012 Focus, but the wheelbase of the Grand is stretched by 5.5 inches, to 109.8. If you've already looked at the pictures, you've noticed that the C-Max has two sliding doors. By most popular definitions, this makes it a minivan, the lamest of automotive descriptors. Ford, however, is not worried that the C-Max will be uncool. Jim Farley, Ford's V-P of global marketing, service, and sales, believes the Millennial Generation will make different choices than did its parents. The SUV boom was fueled in part by an aversion to boxy minivans. But the kids that grew up in those SUVs never grew to loathe the minivan as the generation before them did. Thus, the C-Max target buyer sees sliding doors as a convenience—at least that's what Ford hopes. Whatever customers ultimately decide, the C-Max differs from modern minivans in a few ways. For starters, it's smaller, more the size of the Mazda 5 than the Honda Odyssey. At 178.0 inches long, the C-Max is two feet shorter than the Honda and 3.5 inches shorter than the Mazda. The C-Max has a wagonlike two-box silhouette instead of the monobox-on-wheels look of modern minivans. Three Rows, but Only Two Full-Size The C-Max officially holds seven passengers, but the seating configuration is best described as five-plus-two. The two most rearward seats lack headroom for adults—although they would be adequate for short trips—but smaller children should fit fine. Keeping the third row folded keeps cargo capacity reasonable, as the van accommodates 25 cubic feet behind the second row; only three cubic feet remain in seven-passenger mode. Fold every seat, and a magnetic cover flops over the stowed seatbacks to create a flat load floor and deliver 60 cubes of storage. For those who need all three rows, the sliding second row is home to the C-Max's best trick, whereby the center seat can be stored under its passenger-side neighbor. You simply slide the middle perch forward (the second-row bench is split 40/20/40), pop up the outboard seat's bottom cushion, and flip the middle seat into place. This allows access to the third row without folding the second forward; child seats can then be left installed in the middle row without losing the versatility of the rearmost seats. The interior materials in the top-of-the-line Platinum trim level we drove on our preview were excellent, with high-quality plastics and a pleasing amount of aluminum-look trim. The instrument panel is nearly identical to that of the upcoming Focus, which means it packs more character and excitement in its dashboard than most minivans do in their entirety.As mentioned above, the C-Max won't be coming to the United States until early 2012. With the final North American product so far out, there are some details Ford has yet to reveal. The company tells us the U.S.-market C-Max will be powered by a 1.6-liter EcoBoost turbocharged four making 148 hp and 177 lb-ft (199 lb-ft with a Porsche-like temporary-overBoost function); other engine options haven't been confirmed, including the possibility of a 2.0-liter EcoBoost. European models get a higher-output, 177-hp version of the EcoBoost, as well as two diesel engines and a naturally aspirated 1.6-liter pulled from the Fiesta. It is unlikely that the naturally aspirated engine will be offered here, and the diesels would probably be too expensive. Ford is strangely quiet on the topic of transmissions, other than saying there won't be a manual for our market. We'll get a six-speed automatic, but Ford won't say whether that transmission is a version of its dual-clutch PowerShift or a conventional autobox. Based on our experience with the PowerShift in the Fiesta, either option will give the same basic driving experience—smooth, but slow to change gears.

TCS Test Ford S-MAX 2.5 Turbo
TCS Marc Surer präsentiert in der Motorshow TCS den neuen Ford S-Max 2.5 turbo. Extérieur Unser heutiges Testauto, der Ford S-Max, kostet in unserer Testversion 53'720 Franken kostet. Vom Hersteller wird er als "Sportvan" bezeichnet. Er findet seinen Platz zwischen einem Kombi und einer Grossraumlimousine wie dem markeneigenen Galaxy - mit dem sich der S-Max übrigens die Plattform teilt - oder dem Konkurrenten Chrysler Voyager. Diese Charakteristik ist auch von aussen erkennbar: Die Front steigt zwar vantypisch in einer Linie zum Dach hoch, ist aber weniger steil. Von der Seite ist der S-Max aber ein ganz normaler Fünftürer. Schiebetüren wie bei einem ausgewachsenen Van sucht man vergebens. Kombitypisch ist dann wieder die Dachlinie, die zum Heck heruntergezogen wurde. Öffnet man die Heckklappe, wird die Zwitterstellung klar. Der S-Max ist ein sportlicher Lademeister oder nach zwei Handgriffen ein fast ausgewachsener Siebensitzer. "Fast" deshalb, weil das Einsteigen für die hinterste Sitzreihe eine Kletterübung ist, die nur durch das Umklappen des Rücksitzes möglich wird. Intérieur Im Innern fällt als erstes das aufrecht stehende Lenkrad auf sowie die hoch gebaute Mittelkonsole. Das gibt einem das Gefühl, mitten drin zu sein. Die Bedienung des Bordcomputers über Tasten am Lenkrad macht Sinn und versorgt den Fahrer über das zentrale Display mit allerlei wichtigen, aber auch unwichtigen Informationen über Fahrt, Verbrauch und technischen Messdaten. Man sitzt im S-Max etwas höher als in einer Limousine oder einem Kombi, fühlt sich aber trotzdem nicht so erhaben wie in anderen Vans. Das Lenkrad ist höhen- und längs verstellbar. Die Sportsitze gehören bei der Topvariante zur Grundausstattung. Der Fahrersitz ist zudem in der Höhe bequem elektrisch verstellbar. Schick: der Handbremsgriff gleicht einem Schubhebel beim Flugzeug, was man auch schon vom Opel Zafira kennt. Technik Mit dem 2,5-Liter-turbomotor ist Fahrspass und sportliches Vorwärtskommen garantiert. Bei den 220 PS und 320 Nm Drehmoment könnte man beim Ford S-Max eigentlich schon von Übermotorisierung sprechen. Allerdings wiegt das Fahrzeug mit sieben erwachsenen Personen stattliche 2.4 Tonnen. Da weiss man die Reserve natürlich zu schätzen, falls man auf der Überholspur mithalten möchte. Die Benzinuhr im Bordcomputer blendet man dann aber besser aus. Bei dieser Sportlichkeit wären für das 6-Gang-Getriebe kürzere Schaltwege wünschenswert. Fahrverhalten Der S-Max fährt sich trotz seiner Grösse und seines Gesamtgewichts wie ein sportlicher PW. Das hat vor allem mit der hohen Leistung des 2,5-Liter-turbomotors und dem elektronisch geregelten Fahrwerk zu tun, das sich den Fahrbedingungen kontinuierlich anpasst. Über den Bordcomputer hat man zudem die Wahl zwischen den drei Grundeinstellungen "normal", "komfort" und "sport". Die Lenkung ist direkt und präzise, und die Abstimmung des sportlichen, aber nicht zu straff ausgelegten Fahrwerks passt zur Leistung des Motors. Fazit Der Ford S-Max ist ein gelungener Kompromiss, der die Lücke zwischen Grossraumlimousine und Kombi schiesst. Er lässt seine grösseren Van-Brüder in Sachen Fahrverhalten hinter sich und bietet trotzdem mehr Platz als ein normaler Kombi. negativ -Die dritte Sitzreihe ist für Erwachsene Passagiere lediglich auf Kurzstrecken zumutbar. -Der Preis für sportliches Fahren geht auf Kosten des Verbrauchs. -Der grosse Wendekreis -Das 6-Gang-Getriebe hat lange Schaltwege positiv -Sicheres und komfortables Fahren dank elektronisch geregeltem Fahrwerk, sieben Airbags und - bei der Topvariante - serienmässigem Notbremsassistenten. -Gute Abstimmung zwischen Motor, Fahrwerk und Getriebe. -Flexibles Innenraumkonzept ohne lästigen Sitzausbau.





2012 Ford S-Max review - What Car?
Read the full What Car? Ford S-Max review http://bit.ly/yiEA4I The Ford S-Max is more fun to drive than most other MPVs, yet it's also refined. The cabin is roomy and versatile, while all versions are well equipped. The rearmost two seats aren't comfy for adults and they're fiddly to fold. Prices for higher-spec models are rather dear. The Ford S-Max is an MPV that requires little compromise. Brilliant.
