Ford Mondeo 2014 review - pictures

This is the long awaited Ford Mondeo, joining the competitive large family car market. 

Set to rival brands like the VW Passat, Mazda 6, Skoda Superb and premium brands such as the Mercedes C Class, Audi A4 and the BMW 3 Series. 

The interiors of the Ford Mondeo has been given a facelift too, the use of sober material gives it a more refined and premium feel.

The Ford Mondeo is offered with an option of either 2.0-litre turbodiesels or 1.5-litre EcoBoost petrol engines. Along with an added option of a petrol-hybrid engine. 

The Mondeo is part of Ford’s new “One Ford” philosophy, which places more emphasis on ride comfort and interior quality then driving experience. 

The facelifted Ford Mondeo has been given the signature Aston Martin like front grille similar to the Ford Focus and Fiesta.

Overall the Ford Mondeo looks more mature, clean and refined compared to its outgoing version. 

The new refined Ford Mondeo is an enjoyable drive, but not as much as the Mazda 6 or its predecessor, for that matter. 

The Ford Mondeo’s rakish looks do not compromise its interior functionality, it is fitted with lots of storage space and cup holders. 

The boot capacity is a whopping 550-litres, and with the seats folded down, the capacity increases to 1,446-litres. 

Ford has a massive engine range that will be suitable for most of the customers’ needs.
