Ford C-MAX Hybrid and Fuel Efficiency

Tuesday August 14, 2012

This fall, Ford is slated to release the new C-MAX Hybrid, which is expected to get 47-miles-per-gallon on the highway and in the city. Originally, the C-MAX was supposed to seat seven people but has since been scaled back to five seats. WDET's Laura Weber-Davis speaks with John Davis, chief engineer of the C-MAX, about what consumers should expect from Ford's new fuel efficient vehicle and how the C-MAX has evolved over the past few years.
