Louder North Posted August 16, 2017 Report Share Posted August 16, 2017 For me a main attraction of the C-max was the high level of ingenious technology, coupled with a comfortable and useful body shape. Regular drive trains just seem dumb. The things I would like in my next vehicle are bigger battery, an electric cabin pre-heater operated off the same plug-in as the engine block heater, and, most important, AWD. Regarding Ford engine control software updates: it seems likely that these would be aimed at reliability improvements, if possible, rather than mpg. A slight mpg increase will hardly be noticed in the noise - and doesn't do anything for Ford. A failed transmission will be noticed all around and can easily cost Ford quite a bit. The only thing I would want in my next vehicle would be the ability to tow something. AWD is overrated if you have good tires and ETC.
