The C-MAX was Ford's first hybrid-only model line in the US, replacing the Escape Hybrid and Mercury Mariner Hybrid outright.
The hybrid's EPA fuel economy label came from testing the Fusion Hybrid, as the rules allowed; Ford later cut the rating and sent rebates to some 32,000 owners.
Ford restarted development to match the Opel Zafira's seven seats, then never released a seven-seat version of this generation because of technical difficulties.
Rivals
Same body, same money, other badges — tap any card to flip.
The Touran quietly introduced a first for Volkswagen: electro-mechanical power steering, a segment first that varied steering weight with road speed and saved fuel by drawing no power at idle.
Romania's own president bought the first B-Max off the Craiova line, on 25 June 2012, before anyone else could.
Opel's first Zafira OPC put a 192 PS turbo four into a seven-seat minivan in 2001.
Opel's in-house tuning division built this Zafira a 240-hp turbocharged heart — turning a seven-seat family minivan into one of the quickest people-movers of its era.
Porsche co-developed this Zafira's clever fold-into-the-floor seven-seat system, marketed as Flex 7.
Vauxhall killed the Zafira Tourer in Britain because buyers had moved on to SUVs.
A fire in one Zafira wrecked up to 300 cars in a single Stavanger Airport parking garage in January 2020.
