p38fln Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 I just replaced our 4x4 Ford Expedition with a 2017 C-Max. It's something like 25% of the size of the original car, but the MPGs are just awesome. American C-Max's are only available as hybrids, with a 105 KW 2 liter Atkinson-cycle combined with a 35 KW electric motor. How well does the C-Max do in snow? Yes, I know it's not the same car, the hybrid is probably quite a bit heavier but tires and ground clearance should be the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p38fln Posted July 11, 2017 Author Share Posted July 11, 2017 Some pictures. I figure it will look a strange to you all with the small American plates on it as your big plates look to me. Are the two lights on the hatch fog lights? They just seem kind of randomly placed and we don't have rear fog lights here. LED lights under the headlights are pretty cool, i just wish it had fog lights and the navigation radio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hostahousey Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 The pics seem to be of earlier Cmax. The small grill just under the bonnet has now been removed and a smiley face rad grill included. Haven't sussed how to include a pic yet or would includ a pic of mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to the OP its a 2017 "just replaced our 4x4 Ford Expedition with a 2017 C-Max" From the first post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hostahousey Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 Yes sorry thanks for that, must be an age thing! But I have just purchased a 2016 Cmax and found the front view similar to the pics to be earlier than 2015. Later models all seem to have just the smiley😊 face grill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Cmax is a 16 reg and most post 16/17/18 seem to have a different front and rear. See photo of my front .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pragmatix Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 i never disagreed with you , i just pointed out that the American one is totally different to our spec. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
