Various-topping version is equipped with a Ford Mondeo estate company Econetic Titanium trim levels of luxury. Econetic model that previously independent models in the Mondeo range, with the badging to match, but now may have the additional features of Titanium-spec models.
Power comes from the same 113bhp 2.0-liter turbodiesel engine as standard Econetic, giving 54.3mpg combined fuel economy and CO2 emissions of 139g/km.
Econetic Features include low resistance tires, the front grille air deflectors, indicators of change gears and lowered sports suspension.
Titanium standard features include headlights and automatic wipers, six-disc CD multichanger, a new 16-inch alloy wheels, and also some additional metal trim. It has a standard list price of £ 24,545, but our test car included Ford with full mod cons including Alcantara and leather heated seats, Bi-Xenon headlights and DVD touch screen sat-nav system. This gives the list price of less than 1000 pounds shy of £ 30,000, which placed through the conceptual from rivals and almost a BMW 5-series Touring region.
Dynamically, it is very good. The Mondeo has been leading the class up and handling and no exception here. This trip made and smooth, especially when traveling at highway speeds. Absorb both small and large imperfections in the road and can cover a mile in an elegant and comfortable fashion.
Around the city, traveling through some of the optional 17-inch wheels fitted to test out the car, but it was only a crack and a larger hole to catch out. Low-resistance tires are perfect for those who noisy than traditional counterparts they (especially at highway speeds), but did not have much negative impact on the quality of the trip when up to speed.
Handling is very good, and the big Mondeo feels like it has a calm and quiet family hatchback. Even on wet roads and in this eco guise, have high levels of grip that will deliver a more focused sports car estate.
The machine, however, is somewhat disappointing. The 113bhp feels underpowered to push the 1578kg curb weight and slow progress early. The 236 pounds of torque feel there is no (could not quite pull away in second gear), especially around town, so to slow the progress of the holidays and blunt on the highway.
There are also problems that interfere with the gearchange indicator, which only advise you about when to change for maximum efficiency and does not change down. If you follow the instructions indicators, perhaps to get stuck in your teeth are too high, which again showed a lack of encouragement.
At 300 miles covered on our test route, which mainly dual carriageways, the Mondeo embarrassed again 40mpg, some way short official numbers but respectable for a car of its size and weight.
Optional seat firmly, but still comfortable and suitable driving position is easy to find with a reach / sweep adjusted the wheel. Controls well laid out, although the interior does not feel tad dated now, share more in common with the focus of the Fiesta. That is to say, help touch Titanium appropriate premium feel, though not at the same level with the Vauxhall insignia.
