Detailed analysis of the Ford Grand C-MAX Trend+ 1.5 TDCi 88 kW (120 CV) 7 plazas · 120 CV (2016-2018)
General description
The 2015 Ford Grand C-MAX is much more than just a minivan; it's an adventure companion for the modern family. With its clever 7-seater configuration and an efficient diesel heart, it promises versatility without sacrificing the driving essence that characterizes Ford. It's a vehicle designed for those who need space but refuse to give up the pleasure of feeling the road.
Driving experience
Behind the wheel, the 120 HP 1.5 TDCi engine feels willing and full of life. Although its acceleration figures won't pin you to your seat, its generous 270 Nm of torque from low revs offers an agile and capable response for daily driving and long trips. What truly captivates is its chassis. Ford once again demonstrates its mastery, achieving a sublime balance between passenger comfort and a precise, communicative driving dynamic that makes you forget you're driving a 7-seater vehicle.
Design and aesthetics
Its design is an ode to intelligent functionality. The sliding rear doors are a blessing in tight parking spots and when getting children in, a detail that defines its family character. Inside, space is the protagonist, with a modularity that allows the cabin to be adapted to any need. While the materials are robust and built to last, the dashboard, with its profusion of buttons, betrays the passage of time compared to current screens.
Technology and features
Technologically, the Grand C-MAX delivers the essentials for its time. The infotainment system, though not as advanced as current ones, provides connectivity and basic functions correctly. However, the real technology is hidden in its mechanics: a refined diesel engine with common-rail injection and a chassis with independent rear suspension that was a benchmark in its category. The electric power steering contributes to a feeling of control and ease of handling.
Competition
In a very competitive segment, the Grand C-MAX faced giants like the Citroën Grand C4 Picasso, famous for its comfort and futuristic design, or the Volkswagen Touran, an example of German quality and sobriety. Against all of them, the Ford always wielded its best weapon: superior driving dynamics and the unmatched practicality of its sliding doors, a combination that gave it a unique personality.
Conclusion
The Ford Grand C-MAX is an emotionally intelligent purchase for a family. It's a car that understands the practical needs of daily life but doesn't forget the driver. It offers space, versatility, and very low fuel consumption, but spices it up with a driving experience that few minivans can match. It's the perfect choice for those seeking a balance between reason and heart.
