Detailed analysis of the Ford Focus C-Max Ghia 2.0 TDCi 136cv (2006-2007)
General description
The Ford C-MAX Ghia 2.0 TDCi is not just any minivan. It's Ford's answer for those family parents who refuse to give up excitement behind the wheel. With 136 horsepower of pure diesel power, this car promised and delivered: space for everyone and a smile for the driver.
Driving experience
Getting behind the wheel is a revealing experience. The 2.0 TDCi engine pushes with forceful strength from low revs thanks to its 320 Nm of torque, making every overtake a mere formality. The six-speed manual gearbox is precise, and its chassis, a Ford masterpiece, offers a near-perfect balance between the comfort needed for long trips and an agility that makes you forget you're driving a family car. It feels planted, secure, and surprisingly fun on winding roads.
Design and aesthetics
Its design, based on the acclaimed Focus platform, broke the mold in its category. Far from the boxy shapes of its rivals, the C-MAX featured an arched roofline and a sharp front end that gave it an unusual visual dynamism. Inside, the Ghia trim translated into a quality atmosphere and generous equipment, where the functionality and modularity of its rear seats went hand in hand with an ergonomic driving position focused on driving pleasure.
Technology and features
For its time, the C-MAX was at the forefront. Its common-rail injection diesel engine with a variable geometry turbo was a marvel of performance and low consumption. But the real magic lay in its control blade independent rear suspension, a solution inherited from the Focus that guaranteed superior dynamic behavior. Added to this was a precise hydraulic steering that faithfully transmitted what was happening under the wheels, an increasingly rare element to find.
Competition
In a market dominated by giants like the Renault Scénic, the Citroën C4 Picasso, or the Volkswagen Touran, the Ford C-MAX made its way with an unbeatable argument: driving pleasure. While its competitors focused almost exclusively on modularity and space, the C-MAX proved that a minivan could also be exciting and agile, becoming the dynamic benchmark of the segment.
Conclusion
The Ford C-MAX 2.0 TDCi Ghia is much more than a practical car. It's a vehicle with a soul, designed for those who value both family space and driving sensations. It represents an era when Ford knew how to create cars that emotionally connected with the driver, offering a fantastic balance between functionality, performance, and fun. A modern classic for the enthusiastic driver.
