Detailed analysis of the Ford Mondeo Ghia 2.5i V6 170cv 5p (2002-2003)
General description
The 2001 Ford Mondeo Ghia 2.5 V6 is not just a family sedan, it's a statement of intent. In a golden age for six-cylinder engines, Ford offered a car that combined the elegance of the Ghia trim with the beating heart of a V6, creating a driving experience that transcends the merely functional.
Driving experience
Getting behind the wheel is rediscovering the pleasure of driving. The 2.5-liter, 170 hp V6 engine pulls with a smoothness and an intoxicating sound that modern engines rarely match. It accelerates decisively, reaching 100 km/h in 8.7 seconds, and feels poised and secure at high speed thanks to a well-tuned chassis. It's a car that invites you to travel, to enjoy every curve and every overtake with absolute confidence.
Design and aesthetics
Its design, a product of Ford's 'New Edge' language, still looks balanced and timeless. With its 4.73 meters in length and a fluid silhouette, it projects an image of solidity and elegance. The 5-door body not only adds a touch of sportiness but also hides immense practicality, with a 500-liter trunk capable of effortlessly accommodating the whole family's luggage.
Technology and features
The real technological gem lies under the hood. Its V6 engine, built from aluminum and with variable intake, was an advanced piece of engineering for its time. The chassis was not far behind, with a McPherson-type independent suspension on both axles that guaranteed a sublime balance between comfort and agility. Although it lacks today's screens and assists, its technology focused on the essential: driving dynamics.
Competition
In its time, this Mondeo went head-to-head with the best of Europe. Sedans like the Volkswagen Passat, the Opel Vectra, or the Peugeot 406 with their most powerful engines were its direct competitors. However, the Mondeo V6 always stood out for offering an exceptionally dynamic chassis and a performance-to-price ratio that was very hard to beat.
Conclusion
The Ford Mondeo Ghia 2.5 V6 is much more than a used car; it's a time capsule that reminds us of an era when family sedans could have a sporty soul. It is the perfect choice for anyone looking for space, comfort, and, above all, the thrill of a naturally aspirated six-cylinder engine. A future classic that offers pure sensations at a reasonable cost.
