Interior of the car is spacious and technology features are contemporary

A good family car needs to be roomy and should offer enough boot space to carry luggage of all occupants of cabin. While having direct competition with highly ranked vehicles of the class Ford Mondeo must come up with upgraded features in every model. Better access of this automobile is also considered an advantage either through doors for passengers or reaching to boot space for putting bags and boxes. Handling of big in size hatchback is far improved than most of rivals including some of the upscale ones. Cabin material may disappoint you and unnecessary complication in using touch screen makes it less attractive. For buyers good range of two different fuel engines are available and all of them are well refined. Perfect blend of performance and economy is present in 1.6 litre Ford diesel engine that is capable of 114bhp. Another pick of the lot is 2.0 litre diesel motor with 148bhp due to similar balance of power and fuel efficiency. Hybrid version is also present in the lineup but cost is quite high.

Safety of riders is priority of Ford

Though it has not been offering the best fuel consumption of the class but still very much acceptable for the buyers. The best figures of the range are of 1.5 TDCi engine with 94g/km carbon emission. Safety features of the car get five star ratings in Euro NCAP crash test. For children inside the cabin this percentage is little lower than adults and for pedestrians it is 62%. Most of the required safety is standard in expensive models and for rest it is optional. Three years warranty is also enough for buyers.

A feel of upscale vehicle is evident

In appearance the present model is not only appealing but also matches contemporary designs. The latest fourth generation Mondeo is bigger in size and falls in upscale category that is why serving the buyers a lot better than predecessors. Interior has generous high tech features that allow it to compete in rather a tough sector. This car is available in different auto markets of the world with minute changes. From low revs the entry level diesel machine accelerates smoothly and has desired agility. Adaptive shock absorbers are missing that rivals do offer but usual suspension performs really good without restriction of track surface. For such a large car handling means a lot and this car though not ideal but has come up with excellent control and balance.

 You can drive it with confidence

Driving is enjoyable with ability of staying upright on sharp turns and roads twisting along. Without adaptive suspension you can not enjoy this liberty in cars competing with Mondeo. The steering is least weighted though precise and it has made it less welcomed by most of the drivers. Noise is well suppressed either of motor or of wind passing while running it on highway at high speed. The 2.0 litre diesel engine is particularly refined that creates little bit of sound on low revs but fainted away when cruising on a smooth road.
