donskoops Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Im planning on upgrading to the grand cmax as my family is due to grow next year, I have been looking at 2 versions of the grand cmax titanium 1.0 ecoboost 125ps titanium 1.6 ecoboost 182ps but never can find any real reviews from real people that have driven them, in my head the 1.6 sounds the better option as the size of the car just cant see the smaller engine pulling well enough in them times when you need to put your foot down thanks for any help in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lightfoot71 Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Hi, have had a C-Max 1.0 125 Ecoboost for nearly 3 months now, performance is good with fuel economy around 40mpg of mixed driving. We had a test drive of the 1.0 in a Grand C-max and I felt it struggled a bit up hills due to the increased size and weight of the car (the Grand is over 100kg heavier than the normal C-max). I suggest you test drive both, but in my opinion the 1.6 Ecoboost would have more power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeebowhite Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 to be honest I would echo mark's sentiments! the extra weight can be a lot of difference on a 1.0 turbo petrol! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
