Ford S-Max MPV Spotted Testing in North America
The folks at Ford might be mulling an MPV for the North American market.
AutoGuide.com’s spy photographers spotted Ford testing its S-Max covered in heavy camouflage in the Michigan earlier today. The comapny currently sells the S-Max in Europe, but could serve as a replacement to the aging Flex crossover in Ford’s lineup.
Sort of a mix between a minian and a crossover, the S-Max could be powered by a range of Ford powertrains including Ford’s 1.6- and 2.0-liter EcoBoost four cylinder mills and the hybrid powertrain all offered in the C-Max.
Ford showed a concept preview of the next version during the Frankfurt Motor Show last year wearing its new corporate face, following others inlcuding the Fusion, Mustang and 2015 Focus.

Please bring it over Ford! The Flex is nice but its appeal is limited..
