Last sold in 2020, the Ford Mondeo is no longer being produced for the Australian new car market. In terms of the now-discontinued MY20 model, there’s a lot of variety in the Ford Mondeo range, with as many as 12 configurations available. This includes three underlying variants - the Ambiente, Trend and Titanium - plus the choice of hatch or wagon body types, and three different engines covering the petrol and diesel spectrums. It’s hard to go wrong with any of these options, such is the pure beauty of the design, level of comfort, range of entertainment features and fastidious steering. Ford has developed a remarkably efficient diesel engine utilising Turbocharged Diesel Common rail Injection (TDCi), which is paired with stop-start technology. You’ll barely believe how thrifty this motor is. Nevertheless, both of the 2L turbo petrol engines flow and transition like clockwork. The cargo hold for each variant boasts impressive capacity, yet doesn’t compromise on interior cabin room or any degree of visibility. Ford’s European-built Mondeo is a fantastic car to drive, particularly over long distances, where it’s quiet glide and graceful fluidity reward occupants with ultimate comfort. Here’s hoping the Ford Mondeo returns down under one day, but in the meantime, look out for one in the second-hand market.
