Ford's S-Max Sports Activity Vehicle reinvented for the 2015 model year
10 Oct 2014|7,156 views
Ford has unveiled the all new S-Max, a five or seven-seater Sports Activity Vehicle (SAV) offering style, driving pleasure and advanced features without sacrificing space, flexibility and fuel efficiency.
The new S-Max will debut Ford's new Adaptive Steering technology in Europe when it goes on sale in 2015 and will also be the first Ford model in the world to feature the automaker's new Dynamic LED Head Lamps with Glare-Free Highbeam that maintains maximum illumination without distracting other road users.
The A-pillar is moved further back to create a longer, sculpted bonnet for a more premium appearance. A raised chrome trapezoidal grille and slim head lamp design give a technical and cutting-edge look.
The charismatic S-Max silhouette and distinctive window line is even more striking, while a rear diffuser separates integrated exhaust pipes for a modern, sporty feel.
Inside, a mature, sophisticated and dynamic feel includes a sculpted centre console that flows from the upper instrument panel, aluminium accent above the glovebox, and stadium style seating design for second and third row seating space. The Easy-Fold system enables each rear seat to be folded flat from a push-button control panel while Easy-Entry second row seats provide one touch access to third row seating.
Soft-touch materials can resist the wear and tear delivered by active families through anti-stain coatings and durability testing including soil and coffee application and even a mace, which was used to brush the fabric 600 times.
The analogue instrument cluster is replaced by an optional driver-facing 10.0-inch digital screen with animated analogue-style speedometer and tachometer.
An 8.0-inch high-resolution touchscreen in the centre console enables drivers to control Ford SYNC 2 with Voice Control to operate the infotainment system using simple conversational language.
Diesel engine options include a 120bhp rated 2.0-litre TDCi with six-speed manual transmission and a revised 150bhp and 180bhp 2.0-litre TDCi with manual or PowerShift dual-clutch automatic transmission.
Petrol engine options including Ford's new fuel efficient 1.5-litre EcoBoost with 160bhp, linked to a manual transmission or a 240bhp rated 2.0-litre EcoBoost with automatic transmission.
CO2 emissions and fuel efficiency of the SAV are also enhanced with Smart Regenerative Charging and auto start-stop. Underbody aerodynamic shielding and Active Grille Shutter technology have improved aerodynamic efficiency with performance optimised during 400 hours of wind tunnel testing.
