Hi, I live in Vancouver BC Canada and am quite excited as this will be my first hybrid vehicle purchase!  I'm thinking of purchasing 2016 model and stumbled upon these websites.  Question for you:  Is the 2016 Ford C Max redesign only available in Europe? or also in North America?  The following links are a bit vague and I thought I would ask this in the CMax forum.  Thanks for all your input!

As an aside, are there additional maintenance costs other than regular oil changes?

My understanding is that the C-Max in North America has not received the update.   Not sure why not.   The European model did change for this year.  My understanding is also that the European model is not a hybrid.  

 

Hope that helps

According to the article, they have gas, hybrid and plug-in hybrid options. Interested to see if the 2017 NA models will loose the top grill....

Wow without the top grille it sure looked like a Focus to me at first glance

 

I wonder if removing the upper grille was only for looks or for improved performance in some category like drag or mpgs?

wont that mean the engine bay will get LESS cooling and heat up more?

which may be a good ting for those in winter areas that need to get the car warmed up faster to use less ICE and more hybrid EV mode

 

i think I like the 1 grille look better than the 2 grille look for sure

 

wonder if the 2017 model in the US will have this design

 

when will the 2016 be over and the 2017 launch?

maybe the 2016 will be a short launch 1/2 years worth and the 2017 and updated refresh model?

 

anyone know?
