After revealing the cute and practical C-Max in Detroit at the beginning of the year, Ford is continuing on its streak of family-oriented unveilings in Geneva with a remodelled Fiesta dubbed B-Max.
Accessibility is obviously the focal point of the machine. The front sliding doors create an inviting, 1.5-metre wide opening. Inside, the rear bench and front passenger seat fold flat, allowing you to load objects as long as 2.35 m.
Ford says the car offers generous space, a panoramic glass roof and a six-inch touch screen. As for the rest of the cabin, it’s essentially a throwback to the C-Max.
To efficiently get its five occupants from A to B without burning too much fuel, the B-Max calls on a 1.0-litre, direct injection, EcoBoost engine with start/stop technology. The automaker hasn’t divulged any tech specs concerning output or torque, however.
Though identified as a concept car, the vehicle seems ready for mass production. Given the choice of engine and European interest for this type of machine, we can assume the B-Max will only be offered across the pond.
