What is the Ford Focus C-Max?
The Focus C-Max is a compact multi-purpose vehicle, or MPV, with a taller cabin and a flexible family-car layout. It brought people-carrier practicality to the Focus family, with an upright shape suited to passengers and everyday use.
Generation and engines
The first-generation Focus C-Max ran from 2004–2010. Its MPV body gave Ford’s Focus range a roomier, more upright option alongside the hatchback.
UK listings include 1.6 L to 2.0 L petrol and diesel engines, as well as flex-fuel E85 versions. Power ranges from 66 kW (90 PS) to 107 kW (145 PS). EU registration figures include 1.6 L and 1.8 L engines, with both petrol and diesel versions represented.
Fuel consumption and markets
UK VCA listings cover 2004–2010 and give a lowest fuel consumption of 4.5 L/100 km on the NEDC test. EU registration figures cover 2010–2014 and total 8,384. The most registered version was a 1.6 L diesel in 2010, followed by a 1.6 L petrol model. NEDC was used for the UK figure; European test procedures have changed over time, so results from different cycles are not directly comparable.
