Ford Mondeo FAQs

• Is the Ford Mondeo being discontinued?

  After nearly three decades of production, Ford has turned off the lights on the future of the Mondeo amid slowing sales. With SUV/crossovers and electrified vehicles gaining more prominence, the Mondeo no longer fits within the auto-maker's future plans, with production to end in early 2022. At this stage, there is speculation that the high-riding Ford Evos could replace the Mondeo, or at least a modified take may be in store for Australian new car buyers.

• What is a Ford Mondeo in the USA?

  Since 2014 to the present day, the Ford Mondeo has been marketed and sold in the US as the Ford Fusion. The two cars are effectively the same, with near-identical styling, as well as handling and drive dynamics that are very much like-for-like. Beyond that, the two cars share the same global architecture platform as their base, which is responsible for the similarities. You'll find there are only minor localised differences between the Mondeo and Fusion, but for all intents and purposes, the duo are identical.

• Is the Ford Mondeo a good car?

  The Ford Mondeo is an impressive car, offering extensive versatility and a high level of capability for day-to-day or even weekend use. Whereas some Ford vehicles have felt somewhat sterile inside the cabin, the Mondeo has always had a distinctive upmarket feel to it. Offering solid driving attributes, the Mondeo really comes to life in an urban setting for everyday errands and the commute to work. It also has a good history in terms of build quality and reliability, making it a suitable choice for small families.
