Thinking of buying the 2014 Ford C-MAX?
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2014 Ford C-MAX for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. For anyone shopping for the 2014 Ford C-MAX, here are the facts that matter.
Recalls and complaints
Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. NHTSA lists 8 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Owners filed 110 complaints with NHTSA, most often about electrical system, power train and unknown or other; have those parts checked.
Specs, explained
The powertrain to know here is the 2.0L 4-cylinder hybrid, with front-wheel drive. It is a hybrid: the battery charges itself as you drive and brake, so there is nothing to plug in. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
The EPA rates it at 6.1 L/100 km combined, so a 300 km weekend uses about 18 litres. The fuel for 100 km comes to about $9.46 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$1,700 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Inside and out
It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. For luggage, 680 litres means bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
Good uses for the C-MAX
It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. Its low fuel use suits long commutes and high-kilometre weeks.
Drive it on your own roads
Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. Drive the C-MAX on your commute before you commit to it. A week with the C-MAX answers more than any brochure.
Running costs
A 1,000 km month costs roughly $94.60 at our price setting. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$1,700 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Which one to look for
Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Within the 2014 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which.
