The new Mondeo’s engine range will include 148bhp and 178bhp 2.0-litre turbodiesels, while there will also be a twin-turbo version of this unit producing 207bhp. Ford has revealed there will be a 1.6-litre diesel version, too, wearing the ECOnetic Technology tag, which should emit just 94g/km of CO2.

The three-cylinder 1.0 EcoBoost engine is a first for the class, offering 123bhp and emissions of 119g/km. More powerful petrol options come in the form of a 158bhp 1.5-litre EcoBoost and a 2.0-litre EcoBoost producing either 201bhp or 237bhp.

The Hybrid version pairs a 2.0-litre petrol engine with two electric motors; one to drive the wheels and another to provide regenerative charging under deceleration. Ford says the Hybrid will be capable of 99g/km.

The pedestrian detection system works with radar and cameras, which cross-reference images against a database of ‘pedestrian shapes’. If it spots a person in the road, the car will send a warning to the driver and then apply the brakes to help reduce the severity of an impact.

It works at up to 50mph, first sending an audible and visual warning, then priming the brakes and then if there is still no response, applying them automatically. The system can spot other vehicles, too, and can lessen or completely avoid accidents depending on the situation

If I could afford it, I would have it!

I would contemplate either the 1.6 eco, or the 1.5 petrol eco!

It sounds an awesome motor, and one I cant wait to see on the roads!

Scrap that, I would definitely have the eco hybrid 2.0 Petrol if I could rather than the 1.5, didnt realise they were both eco's!

I better stop reading this, I am falling more in love with the car... 4 wheel drive :D and the Vignale

I am leaving the area before I find the nearest gun shop followed by the nearest bank as a funding operation...
