All-New 2013 Ford C-MAX Debuts at Sanderson Ford in Phoenix

Ford unveiled its 2013 C-MAX this summer, and it hit showrooms this fall.  Since then, the 2013 Ford C-MAX has become the fastest selling hybrid ever at its launch.  The 2013 Ford C-MAX delivers best-in-class fuel economy and performance and is available now at Sanderson Ford in Glendale, AZ.

 The 2013 C-MAX marks Ford’s first dedicated lineup of hybrid vehicles and it is taking the competition by storm.

“The C-MAX Hybrid builds on Ford’s 20 years of hybrid innovation and fuel-efficient offerings,” said the Global Product Development vice president, Raj Nair. “C-MAX Hybrid delivers 3 mpg more than Prius v with 50 more horsepower and exclusive technologies such as our hands-free liftgate – and the $1,300-lower base price means the payback period will be the smallest in the segment.”

The 2013 Ford C-MAX is available as both a hybrid and a plug-in hybrid.  The 2013 C-MAX Hybrid is powered by a 2.0L Atkinson-Cycle four-cylinder hybrid engine and is capable of returning 47 mpg city and 47 mpg highway while still generating an impressive 141 horsepower and 129 lb.-ft. of torque.  The 2013 Ford C-MAX Energi plug-in hybrid epitomizes efficiency by returning 108 MPGe (miles per gallon equivalent) city and 92 MPGe highway.

Toyota’s Prius family of vehicles has long dominated the Hybrid market, but Ford’s C-MAX aims to change that trend by topping its nearest competitor, the Prius v, in nearly every category.

“C-MAX Hybrid offers better fuel economy, performance, technology and functionality than Prius v – and C-MAX Hybrid customers will pay less at the dealership and at the pump,” said Ken Czubay, vice president, U.S. Marketing, Sales and Service. “Ford is delivering the power of choice for leading fuel economy across its lineup – from EcoBoost to electrified vehicles – because customers increasingly want to save money at the pump, even as gas prices rise over time.”
