Ford’s three series model line-up (Studio, Zetec and Titanium) have now gone on sale for September’s deliver with Ford announcing full details of the model - including the car’s innovative ‘Easy Access Door System’ - for interested UK car buyers.
One of the first things Ford has stressed about the new B-MAX is its price range. In the UK market, the 1.4-litre petrol powered Studio will be on sale for a starting price of £12,995. British buyers who have more in their motoring budgets could go for the Zetec models from £15,600, or even the top-of-the-range Titanium specification from £17,595.
Ford claim these models will “bring UK drivers a winning combination of ingenious design, unrivalled economy and advanced small car technology.” UK buyers will be able to choose from a range of three petrol and two diesel engines - including the new 1.5-litre TDCi and 1.0-litre EcoBoost.
Easy Access Door System
The car also features Ford’s exclusive ‘Easy Access Door System’. This ‘delivers new levels of convenience, access and flexibility’ by integrating the traditional central pillar structure into the front and rear doors instead of forming part of the body-shell itself.
As Ford explained, the Easy Access Door System features conventional, hinged front doors and rear sliding doors, combined with a new body design.
Further advantages of this system include the possibility of opening the front and rear doors completely independently and easier parking – as the vehicle’s twin sliding rear doors improve the access and mobility in narrow parking spaces.
“When both front and rear doors are open there is outstanding access to the interior, with a huge, clear aperture more than 1.5m wide. This is around twice the width offered by competitors with alternative door concepts and makes it significantly easier to enter or exit the rear seats, attend to children in child seats, or load and unload shopping,” stated Ford when pointing out further benefits of this innovative feature.
