Ford Mondeo Estate 2.0 203 Ecoboost Titanium X 5dr Review

For The Ford Mondeo 2.0 203 Ecoboost Titanium X's direct-injection turbo engine and six-speed twin-clutch semi-auto gearbox are gorgeously smooth and progressive in delivery and impressively efficient. Diesel-like torque of 221lb ft is on tap all the way from 1750rpm to 4500rpm.

Against Pricing and company car tax make it a costlier car to run than Ford’s 2.0 TDCi diesels, which will have an effect on resale values and monthly leasing costs.

The Ford Mondeo 2.0 203 Ecoboost Titanium X is a lovely car to drive, but in a sector of the market dominated by business motoring and fleet running costs, few people in the UK are ever likely to find out.

Buyer's notes

Target Price team says:

With so many Mondeos likely to be bought with company money and pounded up and down the country's motorway network, good fuel consumption and low company car tax liability are vitally important. That means we prefer the punchy and frugal diesel-powered versions.

The 113bhp 1.6 diesel engine is just about man enough for the job of hauling the huge Mondeo around, and it gives stunning economy. However, most people will prefer the extra pulling power of the 138bhp 2.0 diesel, which itself is impressively efficient, and suits the car perfectly. By comparison, the smaller petrol engines seem to struggle to shift the car.

Trim-wise, you're best off sticking with lower trims, such as Zetec or Edge, which give you all the most important bits of kit as standard.
