Looks like a Scion xB on steroids. Overall, good effort from the designers. The interior looks very upmarket and premium.

Interesting design.

Very spacious interior – and loved the steering wheel.

Looks more like a mutated version of between an MPV and SUV.

What sort of mentality is this?

Manufacturers are going back to Wagons as a more practical means of people carriers. The fashion of SUVs were so yesterday, as people learn the reality of poor driving dynamics, horrendous fuel consumption, expensive maintenance and to be honest, not that much more space than a hatchback or wagon.

Sport/performance wagons are en vogue nowadays (credit to be given to the Volvo 850T5). Unfortunately just not in Malaysia, as as our friend puts it, quite clearly does not see or appreciate the utility and practicality of a wagon.

As for the number of seats, I'm sure Ford has bench seat options for the 2nd row on other trim levels. Following standard Ford modle nomenclature, the "captains" chairs are for the "Limited" trim level, SE Trims will probably have bench for the 2nd row.

And yes, it does look like an upsized Mini, or a downsized Range Rover depending on how you look at it.

Weird that no one has mentioned the Chrysler Pacifica (although that is nowhere near low and sleek), which was one of the non-minivan passenger orientated vehicle. We also have the Mercedes R Class, and if we go further back, older station wagons from Volvo, Benz, Ford all had 3rd row options, (abeit rear facing) for thier Stationwagons.

Ford heads back to the 50s – jeez that thing is ugly. One more nail in the coffin.

Is this an American model? Cause it looks like one. I like the interior a lot, really seems comfortable, I feel like hugging the thick B and C pillars to sleep :p Hope this gets here soon, we badly need variety here.

That's a Range Rover design ripoff if I've ever seen one. But, then again Ford do own Land Rover.

By: eezarm

eezarm — Thu, 26 Apr 2007 20:27:47 +0000

To me, the design is good

it looks like a Mini Cooper + Range Rover

Interior is simple but elegance

Pity, only 6 ppl can fit in it

hey paul, saw an article bout u in a magazine just now.
