current Ford Mondeo has always been very popular. I have also received many related inquiries. The one I was asked the most is the Mondeo 2022 facelift EcoBoost 245 luxury model with a guide price of 179,800 yuan. So, is this version worth buying? Today we will discuss this issue.
In terms of appearance, Ford Mondeo's overall shape is sporty, the grille at the front face is conspicuous, the interior is tile-shaped, and it looks very conspicuous with the blackened design. When the key is approached, the grille will have a "breathing" action, which also brings a strong sense of ritual. The design of the split headlights is in line with the current mainstream. The daytime running lights are "L" in shape, and the three-stage style also brings strong recognition.
body side, the black roof and gray body look very young. The segmented waistline and clearly portrayed wheel arches emphasize the sense of fashion. The design of the hidden door handle even gives people the taste of a new energy vehicle. In terms of body size, Ford Mondeo's length, width and height are 4935x1875x1500mm, and the wheelbase is 2945mm, which is positioned as a mid-size car.
At the rear of the car, the addition of through-type taillights emphasizes the mainstream atmosphere, and the "three-vertical" shape on the left and right sides is very eye-catching. This design obviously pays tribute to Ford Mustang . At the same time, the rear end emphasizes the visual layering through the design of the concave and convex surfaces, and also creates a double-sided two-exhaust exhaust shape through the chrome trim of the lower guard plate, setting off the sporty atmosphere.
Entering the car, the super large connected screen with a length of more than 1.1 meters is very eye-catching. They are actually composed of two screens - a 12.3-inch full LCD instrument and a 27-inch long central control screen. The highlight is naturally the 27-inch large screen, which has a display clarity of 4K, looks very delicate, has a high smooth operation, and supports mainstream APP applications, such as Baidu map, iQiyi , etc. Although the full LCD instrument is relatively conventional, its UI design is more futuristic and has a good visual impact.
other aspects of the car are kept simple overall. The center console is covered with white fabric and extends to the door handle area, which highlights the warmth when matched with the black main color. The full steering wheel adopts a flat bottom design and is decorated with chrome trim strips. The feel of the multi-function buttons on the disc body are also good.
In terms of riding, the seats of Mondeo adopt a two-color design, which is more lively in style. In fact, after sitting down, people feel moderately soft and hard, and the wrapping of the two wings is relatively excellent. As for space performance, judging from the seating situation of the 180cm-height experiencer, after the front seat is adjusted appropriately, the leftover of the head is one punch, keeping the position of the front seat unchanged to the rear seat, one punch and one finger on the head, two and a half punches on the legs, the sense of space is very prominent.
power, Mondeo is equipped with a 2.0T engine, with a maximum power of 175kW (238Ps), a maximum torque of 376N·m, and is matched with an 8-speed automatic transmission. Judging from the test drive experience, Mondeo's accelerator adjustment left a deep impression on me. Although its power parameters are relatively strong, it is just right to not swell in the first stage. If you step deeper, you can feel the explosion of power. The ability to accelerate in the later stage is not inferior. The performance of the transmission is also very "soft" and there are almost no pauses during the test drive.
In addition, Mondeo's chassis also performs well. It adopts a front McPherson independent suspension + rear multi-link independent suspension structure, which makes it feel heavy when opened, and can effectively filter bumps on the road surface. There is no obvious sense of jumping in the rear row when it is too large.
I remember when Ford Mondeo was first released, its sporty appearance and super long screen design really attracted a lot of attention. Putting aside these eye-catching elements, Mondeo also showed a high level in space performance, performance and driving texture.From the perspective of specific models, Ford Mondeo luxury model has the ultra-long connected screen that this generation of models should have, and the active safety warning system, automatic dual-zone air conditioning, etc. are also equipped. Although there is no B&O audio and L2-level assisted driving function, the price of 179,800 yuan is indeed very good, which is worth considering in my opinion.
