Ford SAV
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Ford SAV is a seven-seater, large MPV concept car developed by Ford of Europe. It was first displayed to the public at the 2005 Geneva Motor Show and was intended as a styling exercise to show the new direction for Ford's designs in the European market. Ford will produced this model as the Ford S-MAX with slight modifcations for it to be practical for mass production. The S-Max is sportier than the Ford Galaxy and feels closer to the large family car Ford Mondeo.[1]
Being larger than the Mondeo and smaller than the Galaxy, it was billed as a "sports activity vehicle", designed with flexibility of use in mind. The seating uses the "Business Class" flexible rear seating design first seen on the Ford Focus C-MAX; electric motors allow easy rearrangement of the rear seating for passenger comfort or adjusting them to permit for more cargo room. Exterior, the design was intended to bring a more aggressive feel to the current Ford design philosophy. It has a steeply sloped windscreen and an arching roofline that blurs the line between minivan and SUV.[2]
