Geneva motor show 2011 - Ford Vertrek
28 February 2011
The hints come in the shape of the Vertrek concept car, which is based on the same platform as the C-Max and the new Focus.
C-Max hybrids
Ford's brace of C-Max hybrids is set to go on sale in 2013.
The C-Max Energi is powered by a 2.0-litre petrol engine and a lithium-ion battery pack, with the battery powering the car for the majority of the time. Ford says the two combine to give a potential range of 500 miles, but it hasn't said how far it can manage on battery power alone.
It will be farther than the straight hybrid, of course, which Ford is expecting to achieve more than 50mpg.
