"The C-max is very roomy inside. The ride is exceptional. Since I only have a thousand miles on the car, I cannot speak to its reliability. I love the touch screen display and ease of controlling the radio, navigation, and temperature. The one down side to the car is the gas mileage. I knew it would not be the 47 that they advertised, but I was hoping for 37 that Consumer Report claimed. I am at 33.3 mpg."

"I have had my car for just a week, but already am in love with it. SE version with the Ford My Touch system. My first 200+ mile trip returned 55 mpg, and I am consistently in the mid to high 40's. The car is fun to drive, with a nice ride and good road feel I am 6 foot 6 inches - the drivers seating position is comfortable for me. The large glass area gives one an expansive view of the road. To those complaining about the MPG's - it is the driver, not the car. Pay attention to the coach, ride the pedal gently, and don't cruise at 70 or 80 mph."

"I've had this car for over 2000miles so far and I'm getting 43.7MPG. The hybrid coach helps(and my fuel economy is still getting better). Getting that MPG folks is cruising controlling 62MPH and not rabbit starting for green lights. I love the roominess of the vehicle and the heated seats. Total failure for the Sync from Microsoft. That thing glitches on me weekly. Dealership says to restart the program but who are we kidding? I don't have time for that(weekly). I couldn't get programmed for the gate opener for the apartment. So there is my cons. Pros is the car looks great, love the rims, and leather. Quite ride. Again roominess."

"Fantastic and fun car, built way more solid than a Prius. Loaded with electronic "fun" -- almost a comfortable "home" away from home. Enjoyable to drive. BUT -- got under 30 mpg many drives, 30 to 34 mpg at best. Ford blames the driver, but I blame Ford. Unless their EPA is easy enough to replicate, it shouldn't be advertised. Great car, with exception of false gas mileage claims."

"I've been a Toyota / Lexus girl since my first car. Since I was looking into a hybrid vehicle, I decided to test drive Pruis C and C-Max to compare. The outcome was totally unexpected. As a result, I'm converted to Ford, a proud C-Max owner right now. C-max just has this willingness to go! I picks up faster, much quieter and handles responsively. Most of all, the interior feels very spacious. I wanted to change vehicle to accommodate our new baby. My husband is 6.4" so we want a spacious car. C-max looks small from outside but don't let it fool you. We are definitely pleased with the roominess it feels. It handles the turns very well and I feel safe driving it. I don't hear much noise from outside (this is particularly problematic when I test drive Pruis C. It really felt so noisy). MPG is not as good as it claims though. The way I drive, I only get about 37-41 MPG. It's not bad at all but just not as advertised. I've had it for just about one month and really enjoy driving it around even though I am Very pregnant at the moment!"

"Looks great, feels great, horrible gas mileage... Have 5000 miles on it, was told by dealer would be broken In after three tanks. Still only get average city-highway 33mpg. I am retired, drive normally, still the same. Bad part, I bought the car for the mileage Ford advertised. Now many other people with the car have reported in the same boat. I bought the extended 6 yr. warranty and was told by the dealer to sell it after that and I computed the difference in mpg. cost close to $2000!!!"

"Love the way it handles, love the car overall. Very disappointed in the navigation system. Horribly outdate took it right back to dealership. They were stunned our 5 week old car has the outdated navigation system and no updates available. Waste of money. Not getting near the 47 mpg advertised. Seems like false advertising. Have 4000 miles and still getting around 40 mpg if we do not run the heat."

"My only disappointment is the gas mileage. I have driven the car about 1100 miles and my gas mileage is in the low 30s. Great ride, nice large front window, plenty of body and headroom. The owners manual needs to be improved. It is not very user friendly. The car is so new and so technical, that many of the sales reps and mechanics could not answer all my questions. Ford should offer tutorials On?line for new car owners."
