The numbers in plain words
Power comes from the 2.0L 4-cylinder hybrid, driving through an automatic (CVT). As a hybrid, it does best in stop-and-go traffic, where the electric motor does more of the work. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
Rated at 5.9 L/100 km combined, it needs around 18 litres for a 300 km round trip. Per 100 km, plan on roughly $9.15. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$1,700 a year for 15,000 miles.
Who the C-MAX suits
It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.
Living with the C-MAX
As a large sedan, it is easy to drive and park in the city. Its 680 litres of luggage space fit bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
Try before you buy
Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. Try the C-MAX on your commute, then decide. A week with the C-MAX answers more than any brochure.
Which one to look for
Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Within the 2018 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.
What it costs to run
The EPA estimates US$1,700 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $9.15 in fuel. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
