A huge hexagonal radiator grill with wide chrome crossbars looks no less presentable. Outwardly, it resembles a huge mouth of a fish. The new optics is represented by narrow LED headlights, looking at a diagonal. Due to this, the car "looks" haughtily, with a challenge.
Additional masculinity for the 2020 Ford Mondeo model year 2021 gives the front bumper. Its sculpted silhouette is adorned with neat trapezoidal duct cutouts and circular fog lamps. I was very pleased with the large area of the windshield, as well as the narrow front pillars. Finally, there will be no visibility problems now.
The car's profile is dynamic, impetuous, modern. The newcomer has acquired a domed roof with a steep roll, large heated side mirrors, LED turn signals. Clear stampings at the top and bottom of the doors look graceful. Lateral visibility is now better as the sill line is slightly lowered and runs smoothly.
The new 2020 Ford Mondeo stern can be seen in the photo. It is proportional, harmonious. The taillights with LED inserts look impressive. In the new version, most of them go to the sidewalls. The rear window is heavily piled forward, due to which its area has become much larger.

The shortened trunk with a massive lid and a wide opening has become a great addition. But the new rear bumper I especially liked. Its main element was a narrow slot at the bottom, along the edges of which small brake lights are installed.
Initially, the sedan was announced as a representative of the D class. However, the new dimensions of the updated 2021 Ford Mondeo suggest otherwise. They can be easily attributed to class E. Judge for yourself, the length of the car was 4871 mm, width is 1852 mm, height is 1482 mm. The ground clearance is 145 mm for Russia. For Europe, this figure is 128 mm.
The interior of the sedan
Stylish, modern interior does not evoke particularly vivid emotions. The dashboard is distinguished by its informativeness, attractive design and high functionality. The control devices are arranged in the usual way. The chrome bezel that surrounds the dials and the 5-inch touchscreen of the on-board computer looks very elegant.
The new three-spoke steering wheel looks elegant. For a beginner, it was made multifunctional, with a large number of buttons, beautiful aluminum overlays. The center console is modest but interesting. The sporty look is given by the wide, glossy, full-height overlay. 
There are two horizontal deflectors on the top. Below them is a 7-inch display of the latest navigation system. The audio control panel is not entirely familiar. In the center of it there is a large washer of the regulator, and along the edges there are a scattering of control buttons for the climate unit. The driver will have to get used to such a neighborhood so as not to get confused when switching the desired function.
According to the reviews of the majority of owners of the updated version, the 2019 Ford Mondeo salon received many additional compartments, stands, shelves, pockets for storing small things. There are also many decorative elements made of aluminum in the interior design.
A wide transmission tunnel is installed between the front, well-profiled seats, as well as a soft folding armrest. For the decoration, solid, high-quality materials, plastic, pleasant to the touch, were used. The interior is assembled at a premium level. No cracks, inconsistencies.
The subject of pride can be safely called the front seats, which have high lateral support, dense filling, a wide range of adjustments in different directions. In addition, they are equipped with ventilation, heating, electrical memory settings.
But the back sofa will only accept two passengers. The third will clearly be cramped and uncomfortable. The amount of free legroom is sufficient, but it is not enough above the head. The reason is the domed roof. The luggage compartment of the sedan is designed for 429 liters. 
The equipment of the simplest version includes:
- seven airbags;
- system of exchange rate stability, ABS, assistance at the start;
- air conditioning;
- power windows;
- on-board computer;
- navigation system, emergency braking;
- rear parking sensors.
Specifications
The power line so far consists of only two options for gasoline engines. The diesel engine will only be available to residents of European countries. However, gasoline engines provide the 2020 Ford Mondeo of 2021 with quite decent technical characteristics.
| Engine | Power | Overclocking | Consumption | Max. speed |
| 2,5 | 149 | 10,3 | 8,2 | 204 |
| 2,0 | 199 | 8,7 | 8,0 | 218 |
| 2,0 | 240 | 7,9 | 8,0 | 233 |
A 6-band "automatic" is offered as transmissions. The dynamic data of the newbie is at a fairly high level. Maneuverability, handling, which is simple, lightweight, did not disappoint. Frustrated by the economy. Plus, in addition, the acceleration and fuel consumption parameters declared by the manufacturer are noticeably different from the real ones. You can learn more about this from the video of the test drive of the latest generation Ford Mondeo sedan 2020 2021.
However, such a disadvantage fully compensates for the modern equipment of the car with security systems. Due to this, the new model has become much safer, more reliable and more enduring. She has proven herself perfectly not only in urban conditions, but also on long trips.
What trim levels and prices will the updated 2020 Ford Mondeo sedan please us with? There will be four versions in total: Trend, Ambiente, Titanium, Titanium Plus. For the basic version, you will have to pay at least 1,200,000 rubles. Medium configurations will cost 1,350,000 - 1,600,000 rubles. You can count on options like this:
- cruise control system;
- heated windshield;
- immobilizer;
- rear parking sensors;
- leather interior trim;
- steering column adjustment in height, tilt angle;
- on-board computer;
- modern audio system with 8 speakers.
In the top-end version, the following equipment will be additionally available:
- navigation system in Russian;
- heating, ventilation of the back sofa;
- LED dynamic headlights;
- full security package;
- Rear View Camera;
- keyless access to the salon;
- remote start of the engine with a button.
The price of the fully equipped Ford Mondeo 2020 2021 will be at least 1,800,000 rubles.
Sedan competitors
The updated 2021 Ford Mondeo sedan will have to fight back from competitors. There are many of them, but fortunately for a beginner, not all of their bottoms can adequately compete with him. Take Volkswagen Passat and Kia Optima for example.
The main advantage of Volkswagen is the perfect suspension, which is great for our roads. There are no problems at all with handling, dynamism, sound insulation. They are at a fairly high level. The ergonomics of the cabin are carefully thought out, and the quality of the materials is excellent.
The visibility of the car raises no objections. The equipment of the basic version is one of the best. The arsenal of the car has many safety features, a reliable, efficient braking system.
But the engines are very sensitive to the quality of fuel and oil. The harsh Russian winters are clearly not for such engines. In severe frost, do not even try to start the engine the first time, it simply will not work. Also in winter, many Passat owners note problems with the stove, which is why the interior warms up very slowly. 
Unlike the new body of the updated version of the 2020 Ford Mondeo 2021, the body of Volkswagen is prone to corrosion. A serious drawback is the tendency of the car to leave the trajectory, to roll.
Kia Optima is a car with a bright, charismatic appearance, spacious interior, informative dashboard. Just like Ford, the Kia cabin has a large number of shelves, compartments, cup holders, niches. An additional advantage is a spacious trunk, a decent ground clearance, which is less than the "Ford" by only 5 mm.
The car has good acceleration dynamics, maneuverability and controllability. In its equipment, it has an unpretentious, durable engine, reliable transmission.
The Kia soundproofing has a low level, the paintwork, which begins to fly off literally after the first two or three washes. Finishing materials are frankly cheap and impractical.
The plastic is very hard, almost oak, over time it begins to creak and burst. The main disadvantages are too stiff suspension, high fuel consumption, tight steering wheel, which is not so easy to control in emergency situations.
Advantages and disadvantages of a car
The start of sales of the new version of the sedan Ford Mondeo 2020 2021 in the salons of Russia should be expected in early 2020.
The main advantages of the car are:
- beautiful, interesting, austere body design;
- comfortable, spacious interior;
- good quality materials, plastic;
- high ground clearance;
- informative steering wheel;
- excellent handling, dynamism;
- decent visibility.
Ford Mondeo and Ford Fusion become one car. The news was made public thanks to the Detroit Auto Show, where the new redesigned 2017 Ford Mondeo (Fusion) was unveiled. Ford decided to make already existing models, and Mondeo (Fusion) fell under this wave.
Exterior Ford Mondeo (Fusion) 2017 model year
The sedan, built for North America, will be crossed with the striking D-class representative in Europe. The result is a four-door Ford Fusion. The new interpretation incorporates the best features of both models.
For the first time, Ford Mondeo was released in 2012, and today the carmaker has made a restyling. As a result, new outlines of the bumpers appeared, the borders and dimensions of the radiator grille and air intakes were changed, and the shape of the headlights was also updated.
The new body of the 2017 Ford Mondeo (Fusion) received many chrome parts that made it more noble and stylish. Particularly noteworthy is the front bumper, which has a refreshed design. The changes also affected the optics. The headlights have become a little larger and wider, which gave the car solidity and visually expanded its dimensions. Restyling of the 2017 Ford Mondeo (Fusion) did not greatly affect the appearance of the car, the features characteristic of this model range remained.
Thus, there were no fundamental changes in the new proposal from the American automaker, but the improvements made it possible to get ahead of its predecessor.
Interior of the new Ford Mondeo (Fusion) 2017
The interior design has also changed little, but the innovations that have appeared have made the car better and more comfortable. The biggest changes were made to the gear lever.
A review of Ford Mondeo (Fusion) cannot be left without listing modern gadgets and devices that are becoming commonplace in most cars. The state-of-the-art third-generation SYNC plant has taken over the space that used to belong to the multimedia installation. Now the interior of the new Ford Mondeo (Fusion) has a modern sensitive LCD screen, a system of perception of voice commands and an improved interface of the new system.
The changes affected the dashboard. It has become more comfortable, which has become possible thanks to new materials for surface finishing, as well as a variety of colors.
The configuration and wide possibilities of the driver's seat deserve attention. Each car owner will be able to choose a comfortable seat position for himself.
Specifications Ford Mondeo (Fusion)
The car is interesting not so much for its design novelties as for its technical capabilities. They characterize the power of the presented novelty.
Ford Mondeo (Fusion) has several trim levels that have different features. The basic version is equipped with a 2.5 liter four-cylinder engine. It generates 172 horsepower. A complete set with an electric motor is also presented. It has a 2 liter engine. The dimensions of the new car are not yet reliable, but still differ from the dimensions of the Mondeo prototype. The Ford Fusion is 13 mm longer and 26 mm higher. The official press release says that the car is equipped with McPherson struts in front, and redesigned at the rear. The body structure has become more rigid.
Full equipment with such functions as heated seats, leather interior, dual-zone climate control, sports suspension, rear view camera and other "chips" will also be presented to the judgment of motorists.
The auto concern took care of the safety of drivers and passengers. The basic configuration of the Ford Mondeo (Fusion) includes eight airbags, a vehicle stabilization system and climate control.
Absolutely all configurations can be equipped with a manual or automatic transmission at the customer's request. The hybrid cars will be equipped with modified variants.
The developers have pre-installed the front-wheel drive of new models. However, more powerful cars can be equipped with all-wheel drive, with a rear axle connection.
According to preliminary data, the European version of the new Ford Mondeo (Fusion) will differ from the American version. Turbodiesels will be produced for Europe.
The economy of the new model range deserves special attention. A sedan with an engine capacity of 1.6 liters, can use up 7.7 liters. fuel per 100 km. Such amazing achievements have been achieved thanks to the creation of the Start-Stop system. In some Ford models, this system is paired with an automatic transmission.
The concern presented to the public a complete set of Ford Mondeo (Fusion) on an electric motor. Modification Ford Fusion Hibrid became the owner of a new internal combustion engine and a lithium-ion battery pack. Fusion Energy with the function of recharging from a regular network is a striking novelty.
Thus, a new, bright and powerful car model appeared in front of motorists, which can meet the most biased requirements.
Configurations and prices Ford Mondeo (Fusion).
The cost of cars of this manufacturer varies from 22 thousand dollars to 30 thousand dollars. The basic configuration of the Ford Mondeo (Fusion) will cost a little over 22 thousand dollars, a hybrid with an electric motor will have a price of about 28 thousand dollars, and a full "stuffing" - more than 30 thousand dollars.
The price of Ford Mondeo (Fusion) 2017 may vary depending on what devices and additional technical capabilities will be installed in it. The owner will be able to independently choose the most necessary devices and functions and place an order.
Fusion Sport is another interpretation presented by the American carmaker. The car has an all-wheel drive system, equipped with an EcoBoost V6 engine with a maximum power of 325 horsepower. The automatic six-speed gearbox and engine under the bonnet form a cohesive team that makes the novelty dynamic and powerful. Later, the technical capabilities of the car will become known.

Reading 5 min.
Ford Mondeo 2020, having appeared in Russia, immediately received many accolades. I would like to note that the sedan appeared in Europe several years ago. Despite this, even today it looks great and may well compete with the best in the class. In our article, we will talk about what its main advantages and disadvantages are, and also try to find out what the owners value it for.
Suspension and ride performance
The new Ford Mondeo of the fifth generation was built on the basis of the SD 4 platform. There is nothing special in the suspension design: there is a multi-link at the back, MacPherson struts are used in the front. The design of disc brakes is also simple: one piston and a floating caliper. However, given this specification of the suspension and braking system, they turned out to be very reliable and fully cope with their tasks. The steering wheel works perfectly thanks to the use of an electric booster.
Many test drives in which the new Ford Mondeo have been tested have confirmed its reliability and comfort. Moreover, experts note that the chassis tuning is one of the best in the class. Note, this is all about a front wheel drive car.
Large dimensions do not interfere with driving. It is easy to operate it, you get used to the dimensions quickly, and therefore there are no problems to cope with the car both in turns and when parking. Due to the correct tuning of the suspension, the roll of the car is minimal and even on a bad road, the driver and passengers feel very comfortable.
Interior
Salon Ford Mondeo 5 is made with high quality, and the decoration does not use cheap materials and hard plastic. The dashboard is very beautiful and easy to read, while not straining your eyes with an abundance of various indicators. As for the equipment, it all depends on the type of equipment. The base version of the 2020 car clearly looks poor. But at the same time, if you choose a good package, the new Ford Mondeo will have all the necessary systems and equipment to ensure maximum comfort and safety. These options include:
- Large screen with navigation.
- Multimedia system.
- Automatic parking system.
- Heated seats, etc.
In general, if you are willing to pay, then you can collect yourself a good complete set of Ford Mondeo. In fairness, it should be noted that today such a strategy is quite common, since it allows you to buy a middle-class sedan for little money. Many people note the poor build quality, but we did not notice such sins.
I would also like to say a few words about ergonomics. It allows you to get behind the wheel and skips the adaptation stage - any element is in its place and it is intuitively clear how to turn on a particular device.
There are no questions about roominess. The new Ford Mondeo this year has a spacious interior that can comfortably accommodate 5 people, including the driver. Naturally, the person sitting on the back couch in the middle will feel a little uncomfortable, but at the same time there is enough space above the head and in the legs. Despite the sloping roof, the ceiling does not hang over your heads and leaves little room for a comfortable fit.
Exterior
It is not necessary to study the exterior of the Ford Mondeo for a long time to understand the main idea of the developers. Their main goal was to make this version as similar as possible to the business class sedan. It's no secret that many modern cars are almost the same, and competition is carried out by working on the appearance of the car.
The engineers and designers have coped with this task 100%, and in the stream the new Ford Mondeo looks gorgeous. Of course, there can be no talk of superiority over the industry leaders BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, but the exterior of the car is clearly successful.
Stylish radiator grille, reminiscent of sports cars from AstonMartin, LED optics from FordEvos - all this creates an aggressive and memorable look.
From the side, the new Ford Mondeo looks no less attractive, as the elegant lines, stampings and massive wheel arches only emphasize the overall style of the car. The shape and silhouette of the roof resembles a little dome, and the high line of glass clearly declares a sporty note in the exterior of the car, which looks very expensive in general. The rear of the car harmoniously combines LED headlights, a powerful bumper and aggressive tailpipes. For the appearance of Ford Mondeo - 5 out of 5!
Power units and equipment
As you already know, in our country, Ford Mondeo will be offered exclusively with gasoline engines and 6-speed gearboxes. The following motors are available to choose from:
- 2-liter EcoBoost with 203 hp with., capable of accelerating the sedan to hundreds in 8.7 seconds.
- 2-liter EcoBoost with 240 hp with., capable of accelerating the sedan to hundreds in 7.9 seconds.
- 2.5 liter with 150 hp with.
This year's version is equipped with all the necessary systems, including ESP, ABS, EBD, BAS and more. Among the popular and useful options, one can single out the help system when starting down a hill, car parking, etc.
So, to summarize, we can say that the Ford Mondeo is a really good car for the money. Its appearance clearly does not correspond to the price, and the level of comfort can be compared with a car of a higher class.
In America, Mondeo is sold under the name Ford Fusion, and it entered the local market four years ago, two years ahead of the European version. Therefore, it was born last winter. And now the updated Mondeo has arrived: the first market for it has become China, where these cars are produced at the Changan Ford joint venture.

Outside, the Mondeo has changed in the same way as the Fusion: a different headlight contour, rectangular fog lights instead of round ones, new bumpers, and the taillights are now stitched with a chrome crossbar. The salon has also been transformed in the key of the American twin. The first thing that catches your eye: instead of the traditional automatic lever, a rotating washer appeared, like in Jaguar or Land Rover cars, although it does not sink into the bowels of the central tunnel when the ignition is turned off. The central tunnel has been rearranged for the washer, the cup holders are now more conveniently located, and the armrest and box underneath have become larger.
Another novelty is the third version of the instrument cluster, which from the very beginning was offered for the American Fusion, and now it is put in the expensive versions of Mondeo. The speedometer is located in the center, on the sides there are two color screens, on one of which you can display a small funny tachometer. However, the existing tidy with the same size speedometer and tachometer remained in service. An interesting feature of the Chinese Mondeo is the audio control panel in the folding armrest in the back row.
0 / 0
In the Celestial Empire, Mondeo is still offered with a European range of power units: these are turbo-fours with a volume of 1.5 (180 hp) and 2.0 liters (200 or 240 hp). But now a hybrid version with a two-liter aspirated engine (143 hp) and an electric motor (125 hp) has appeared on the local market.
European sales of the updated Mondeo should begin next year, and the cars will reach us with the usual delay, that is, at best, by the end of the year. Most likely, the volume of changes will be similar to the American and Chinese versions, although the base aspirated 2.5 (150 hp) will probably remain in Russia, and the likelihood of a hybrid modification in our country tends to zero. By the way, this fall, the Mondeo of the St. Petersburg assembly was also slightly updated: a media system and an ERA-GLONASS complex appeared.
The fourth generation of this model did not become revolutionary in terms of its development, which somewhat upset the fans of the brand. According to many, the "fourth" Mondeo has a lot in common with its predecessor and therefore does not seem so interesting in comparison with other opponents. But Ford assures that the launch of an updated version of the car on the market can, to some extent, correct the situation for the better.
reference
Restyled Ford Mondeo IV generation was shown to the public in 2017. The new version of the popular D-class car has not undergone significant design reforms, but has become more technologically advanced in terms of equipment. But first things first.
Outside, the updated Ford Mondeo differs from its predecessor in a more elegant headlight optics, a different radiator grille with large cells, a front bumper with redesigned fog lamp sections and new oblong-shaped lamps, and a side-view mirror housing.
Also, one cannot fail to note the light alloy wheels with a unique design, which were included in the equipment of the facelift model.
The creators also worked on the interior of the New Ford Mondeo. In particular, the quality of finishing materials has significantly increased and their color range has been expanded. But at first glance, the changes in the novelty of the relative pre-reform car are a minimum. At the same time, upon close visual analysis, the automatic transmission selector, which is now made in the form of a rotating washer, catches the eye.
Such a solution has recently become extremely fashionable and is massively used on competing models of Ford Mondeo. Another notable innovation is the replacement of the old armrest with a different one, with a larger contact area with the elbow and a more spacious storage box.
As for the equipment, now every configuration of the updated Ford Mondeo includes a multimedia and entertainment complex of the next generation. We are talking about the Sync 3 system, the most important feature of which is the remote control of some of the on-board functions of the car via a smartphone.
Also, through a smartphone, you can find out the status of some systems, which will really appeal to fans of modern technologies.
The list of basic equipment of the model includes:
- Dual-zone climate control.
- Electromechanical parking brake.
- Parktronic.
- Rear view camera.
- Automatic parking system (park assist).
- Cruise control.
- LED fog lights.
- Leather-covered multifunction steering wheel.
- Servos, multilevel heating for the front seats.
- Exchange rate stability system.
- Multimedia and entertainment system Sync 3 with 12 speakers, Bluetooth, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto support.
- 12V socket for rear passengers.
- On-board computer.
- Satellite navigation system.
- Rain sensor.
- Light sensor.
- Keyless engine start system.
At the moment Ford Mondeo 2017-2018 model year is not represented on the Russian market.
Official dealers of the brand do not see the point in bringing the updated model to the market and are successfully selling its pre-reform version. If the car appears on sale, its minimum price will be about 1 million 400 thousand rubles.
Specifications
The gasoline power line of the new Ford Mondeo consists of 1.5 and 2.0 liter supercharged engines. Their power ranges between 160 and 240 horsepower. All power plants are docked with an automatic six-speed transmission.
Turbodiesels are represented by 2.0 liter engines. They generate 150, 180 forces and are equipped with 6MKP or 6AKP.
Body dimensions:
The fourth generation Ford Mondeo is designed on the DC4 platform, which is the fruit of a deep modernization of the DC3 base. Ford engineers have carried out major optimization of the front suspension (McPherson) to improve handling, while the rear axle suspension (multi-link design) has been redesigned.
The share of high-strength steels in the load-bearing structure of the Mondeo body is 61 percent. The A-pillars, side pillars and roof frame are made of high strength hydroformed steel, while the luggage compartment floor is made of magnesium alloy.
This made it possible to significantly increase the level of passive safety of the new generation model relative to its predecessor. In addition, the car has become lighter by 115 kilograms.
Owner review
The personal experience of the owner of this model allows you to look at it without embellishment and draw objective conclusions. In addition, owners often share useful information about the nuances of operation, which can be useful to potential buyers.
Prior to Mondeo, he owned a second-generation Focus with a 2.0-liter engine. The latter showed itself exclusively on the positive side, but it was already morally outdated and required replacement. Mindful of the successful experience with Focus when buying Mondeo, I did not think for a long time.
The car was purchased with a two-liter turbo engine with a capacity of 199 forces.
At the moment, the mileage is 20 thousand kilometers. Naturally, nothing broke during this period. Therefore, you can only describe the personal feelings of the car.
Positive sides:
- Excellent acceleration dynamics.
- Simple and straightforward multimedia complex.
- Colorful instrument panel.
- Spacious salon.
- Good handling.
Negative sides:
- Rigid suspension.
- Poor sound insulation.
- Low quality finishing materials.
Frankly, I expected a little more from Mondeo in terms of comfort. However, in terms of driving properties, he did not disappoint, which cannot but rejoice.
Test Drive
Appearance
Restyled Ford Mondeo externally changed very little. Only connoisseurs will notice the slightly curved lower contour of the headlights, the new oblong fog lamps and the coarse-mesh grille.
However, all these innovations, no doubt, went to the benefit of the car and made its appearance more harmonious and respectable. At the same time, a new rear diffuser and large tailpipes give the stern a toned look that sets the model apart from the crowd.
Salon
In the top versions, the dashboard is trimmed with leather and has neat stitching, but the basic versions are content with harsh plastic, which is not very pleasant to look at. This is somewhat disappointing considering the Mondeo class. But the excellent build quality can be comforting: all the parts have an even fit with minimal gaps.
The instrument cluster with a combined arrangement of indications (digital and analog) looks avant-garde, very informative and easy to read. As for the center console, the round buttons for controlling the audio system and the air conditioner do not make it attractive, although they are very convenient, especially when used in the direction of travel.
The display of the multimedia and entertainment complex serves as a source of information from the navigation system, rear view camera, and also allows you to view files in video format, but does not shine with detailed graphics.
The automatic transmission selector is designed as a rotating washer. This is a very stylish design solution that harmonizes well with the overall architecture of the interior. But not everyone will like using the switch - it is easy to miss the desired transmission mode.
The driver's seat raises no questions. He has an anatomically adjusted profile, tight lateral support. Speaking of the rear sofa, it is worth noting a significant amount of legroom, but even three passengers of an average build will fit in the gallery with great difficulty.
Behind the wheel
The most optimal from the point of view of dynamics and economy is a 2.0-liter gasoline turbo engine producing 199 horsepower. It has excellent traction in the zone of low, medium revs and even in spite of the brooding "automatic" is able to quickly complete long overtaking. As for fuel consumption, the average for this discipline is 10.5 liters per 100 kilometers.
Stability in a straight line causes complaints - the car prowls in a rut, which makes it steer. But the behavior of Mondeo in the corners is beyond praise. It actively dives into corners and demonstrates a high grip limit on the arc, neutral understeer, which allows you to maintain significant speed on it.
At the same time, the suspension is not particularly comfortable. The car prefers not to notice minor road defects, but large potholes are given to the body by strong jolts. In addition, all this is accompanied by acoustic discomfort emanating from the operation of the shock absorber struts.
Conclusions: Ford Mondeo 2017-2018 model year causes a lot of controversy. It is far from ideal in terms of finishing materials and comfort. However, restyling made this car more harmonious, while retaining the gambling spirit in it.
