The ugly-but-practical MPV that's actually a hybrid gem. It's a Focus with a hatchback body and a Prius-like powertrain. It's efficient, it's roomy, and it's reliable—but it's not winning any beauty contests.
Compact MPV (Multi-Purpose Vehicle), FWD only. Hybrid system: 2.0L Atkinson-cycle 4-cylinder (141 hp) paired with a 88 kW electric motor and a 1.4 kWh lithium-ion battery in the hybrid, or a 7.6 kWh battery in the Energi (21-mile EV range). It uses a Ford e-CVT (electronically controlled continuously variable transmission)—this is the same planetary-gear system as the Toyota Prius, just Ford's implementation.
The powertrain is nearly bulletproof—the 2.0L Atkinson motor has no timing belt (it's a chain) and no starter or alternator (both are handled by the electric motor). The e-CVT is bomb-proof. The battery degrades over time, but Ford warranties it for 8 years/100k miles. The main complaints are interior rattles and the infotainment system (MyFord Touch) being slow and buggy. If you need an around-town hauler, the C-Max is a hidden gem.
Every listing below is VIN-matched to your exact C-Max before it ships, backed by a 60-day replacement warranty:
