The compact multi-purpose vehicle known as the Ford C Max has been made by the American car manufacturer Ford for Europe since the year 2003. It was known for being the first vehicle to be built on the Ford C1 platform.
This is the same platform that is utilized by the Ford Focus Mk II, which was introduced shortly thereafter. The compact multi-purpose vehicle known as the Premacy / Mazda 5 is also built on this platform. The Ford C Max is the smallest multi-purpose vehicle in the entire Ford lineup. The internal name for the Ford C Max is the C214.
In the year 2006, a new version of the Ford C Max was unveiled at the Bologna Motor Show. It was first sold in the spring of 2007. This update is meant to bring the Ford C Max in line with the new Kinetic Design style of Ford.
The Ford C Max can seat up to five passengers at a time. It has been commended for its massive cargo space, which can be increased by folding up the rear seats until they are flat. Some models of the Ford C Max also feature outer rear seats that slide in a diagonal fashion.
