The 2014 Ford C-MAX: before you buy
We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2014 Ford C-MAX for sale by us right now. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. This page helps you judge the 2014 Ford C-MAX before you buy one anywhere.
Recalls and complaints
In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Owners filed 110 complaints with NHTSA, most often about electrical system, power train and unknown or other; have those parts checked.
What the specs mean
The 2.0L 4-cylinder hybrid does the work, through an automatic (CVT). 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.
For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 18 litres, from its 6.1 L/100 km rating. Per 100 km, plan on roughly $9.46. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$1,700 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Who the C-MAX suits
Its low fuel use suits long commutes and high-kilometre weeks. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.
How big it is
Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. At 680 litres, the trunk fits bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
Try before you buy
A test week in the C-MAX tells you more than any review. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Rent first, buy later: a week with the C-MAX answers the big questions.
Choosing the right one
If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.
Running costs
At our price setting, 100 km costs about $9.46 in fuel. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
