The updated interior brought sharper ergonomics and a moderni
By 2016, Ford's seven-seat family hauler came in multiple guises: the standard S-Max saloon, the Titanium trim level with enhanced connectivity, and a Vignale variant offering a more upmarket cabin feel. Buyers could choose between the 150 hp diesel or the 160 hp petrol engine, each paired with a six-speed manual or automatic transmission depending on market and specification.
