The 2012 B-Max arrived in UK showrooms as Ford's answer to a market segment hungry for affordable space without the seven-seat commitment. Left-hand-drive Continental buyers had seen it first; Britain got the updated cabin trim and revised 1.6-litre petrol engine good for 120 hp. Families wanting city agility over motorway cruising found their match here.

Ford's answer was a taller, more versatile platform built on the Fiesta architecture, delivering a 1,0-litre EcoBoost option that undercut rivals on fuel consumption. The market had shifted toward e
By 2017, the B-Max faced a narrowing market in the UK and South African territories it served. The five-seater compact MPV retained its 1.5-litre diesel option alongside petrol variants, competing directly against the Citroën Picasso and Renault Modus for buyers seeking flexible family transport. Ford's strength lay in dealer presence and proven reliability across both right-ha
The 2016 Colour Edition brought a distinctive trim strategy to Ford's compact MPV lineup. Buyers could choose from a carefully curated palette of body colours paired with coordinated interior accents, creating a more personalized ownership proposition. Alongside the familiar 1.5-litre petrol engine delivering 120 hp, this special edition offered a middle ground between base and
