The Evos is perhaps one of the most interesting models that Ford offers outside of Europe. Today we can tell you more about the Ford Evos, a car that could perfectly serve as the successor to the Mondeo. Ford is always a pioneer when it comes to vehicles. For a long time now they have been creating the best vans on the market. If you are looking for a new Ford van deal, click here | ford transit van lease. Crusader vans have some of the best finance options for new ford vans.
Earlier this year, Ford showed the Evos in Shanghai, a car that can best be described as a liftback standing high on its legs or as a flattened crossover. Indeed, just like the new Citroën C5 X. Ford called years ago that the successor of the now aging Mondeo would become ‘something completely different’ and so it was obvious that the Ford would eventually bring the Evos to Europe. as the successor to the Mondeo. Ford later said that this was not the case, although a test sample of the Evos turned up on European soil. In short, it is not yet clear whether the Evos is actually ‘the new Mondeo’. At least not in China, there it is on the menu next to the Mondeo. However, we can now provide you with more information about the Ford Evos.
Ford Evos ST-Line
The Ford Evos turns out to be a true battleship. The car is no less than 4.92 meters long. That makes it another 5 centimeters longer than the already not exactly small current Mondeo. The Ford Evos is also more than 13 centimeters longer than the aforementioned Citroën C5 X. The wheelbase of the Ford Evos is also large, which is 2.95 meters while the Mondeo has ten centimeters less between its front and rear axle. The wheelbase of the Evos is even a good centimeter larger than that of the Mercedes-Benz E-class, which bodes well for the interior space. It is still unclear which platform the Evos is on, although the car supplied by the Changan Ford joint venture does not appear to be based on Changan. So just a Ford.
Ford Evos ST-Line
For the time being, Ford supplies the Evos in China with one engine, a 2.0-liter Ecoboost four-cylinder that sends 238 hp and 376 Nm via an eight-speed automatic transmission to the front wheels. Also striking is the interior of the Ford Evos. Even the provisional basic version, which costs about €30,200, has a 27-inch (!) wide infotainment screen. Yes, 27-inch, or a screen with a diameter of almost 70 centimeters. The 4k screen flows into the 12.3-inch digital instrumentation and that provides the car with a visual display of 1 meter wide. The software on which the systems run comes from the Chinese Baidu. So no Google software like Fords will get in Europe by 2023. As standard, the Evos includes extensive electrically adjustable front seats, a reversing camera, parking sensors all around and an extensive range of passive and active safety systems.
Ford Evos ST-Line
Until now we could only show you a white Evos, a specially decked out First Edition. Ford also comes with a sportier ST-Line, a version that includes two-zone separated climate control, different bumpers and 20-inch instead of 19-inch large alloy. However, that version does not have motor upgrades.
What do you think? Should Ford bring the Evos to our part of the world in a form optimized for the European market like crazy? In March 2022 it is over and out for the Mondeo. Let us know in the comments!
