djc Posted October 25, 2015 Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 Ford is the fifth largest foreign auto-maker in the China market, well behind GM and VW. Ford will invest $1.8 billion dollars over the next 5 years in their China operation. Part of that effort will be the introduction to the Chinese market of the C-max Energi in 2016. This appears intended to address severe pollution problems in major Chinese cities. This could represent a substantial increase in the market for the Energi. http://www.industryleadersmagazine.com/ford-motor-co-announces-investment-plans-for-its-plug-in-hybrid-car-c-max-energia/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottwood2 Posted October 26, 2015 Report Share Posted October 26, 2015 Looks like no C-Max hybrid? They only talked about the Mondeo conventional hybrid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian_L Posted October 27, 2015 Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 Does everyone know that the Mondeo and the Fusion are the same? Having been to China, the last thing I'd want there is a full-sized sedan, but Ford must have a valid reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdbob Posted October 27, 2015 Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 From Wikipedia: "The Ford Mondeo is a mid-size or large family car manufactured by Ford from 1992 onwards. The name comes from Latin mundus, meaning "world". The Mondeo was designed to be a "world car"; the North American models were marketed as the Ford Contour and Mercury Mystique until 2000, and as the Ford Fusion from 2013 onwards." Ford started selling the C-Max Energi in the Netherlands in February and have sold 484 there (as of the of September). djc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
