My Ford CMax is the best vehicle I have ever owned
I bought a leftover Ford CMax Energi plug-in hybrid 6 years ago. My only regret is, that Ford discontinued making this model. I was a Mopar man all my life, but I am now a Ford man. My CMax is the most satisfying car I have ever owned, and I will keep it until I die. It's a plug -in hybrid, so I can drive 1,000 miles from- Purchased a New car

Great car, just not the most appealing body style.
Great reliable car. Nice to run around town on nothing but the battery, but always have the gas/hybrid system so you don't worry about finding a charging station when traveling. The interior features are some of the nicest in the cars we own.- Purchased a Used car

So excited to have a hybrid again
Very happy to have a hybrid again, and especially a plug-in. The size is perfect, and the advances since the first hybrids are amazing. A little on the pricey side - even though used - but I'm thoroughly pleased.- Purchased a Used car

Ford Issues On Recall
Ford is the absolute worst to deal with when filing a claim on a SAFETY recall. It's a RECALL, so obviously they acknowledge the issue but refuse to step up and take ownership of a safety defect with the C-Max Energi charger. I now understand the multiple lawsuits they face regarding recalls and defective vehicles and will- Purchased a Used car

This is the best car I have ever owned
I bought this car with only 29,000 mile. So far this has been a great car. I plug this car in every night and drive to work in mostly electric mode only. So great as I am averaging about 45 mpg. This car comes standard with so many great options.- Purchased a Used car

Fantastic Car from a great dealer!
The first thing I look for is a car that fits. Im a big guy, wide and tall, so I need head room, shoulder width, leg room and can't have my knees crunch on the dashboard. I drove my VW Bug until it was ready to be done and found the Ford C-Max Energi This vehicle is Amazing! Comfortable, sporty, small but large. Lots of bells- Purchased a Used car

Great Car & Great Value
Bought this car CPO about 3 weeks ago. I plug it in every time I get home. Drove for 10 days straight without using a single drop of gas!! Went on a road trip & averaged 51.3MPG in hybrid mode! Mine is fully loaded with navigation, back up cam, parking sensors & glass roof. Got a good deal on it. I wish it had blind spot monitoring.- Purchased a Used car

!5 free miles a day
I love this C Max. The visability from the way the windows are designed makes me feel comfortable. I plug it in and drive around with the first 15 miles of energy stored. the height inside is better than many cars. And its spunky.- Purchased a New car
