Excelent Ford B-MAX Opens Up to Us, Shows its Sliding Doors

Ford continues the slow strip tease of its all-new B-MAX small MPV prior to the production model's grand premier at the 82nd Geneva International Auto Salon in the beginning of March. This time we get a full-blown photo of the B-MAX's innovative hinged front doors and sliding rear doors that integrate the central body pillars, which Ford called "Easy Access Doors".
The design allows for 1.5-metre (close to 5 feet) wide unobstructed openings on either side of the B-segment multi-activity vehicle.
“Door systems like this have been a designer’s dream for many years,” said Stefan Lamm, exterior design director, Ford of Europe. “We have taken the concept from an idea on a designer’s sketch pad, to a stylish and versatile product on the showroom floor.”
To make sure that the car offers the same crash protection as any other vehicle with a B-pillar, especially in the event of a side impact, Ford's engineers used special ultra-high-strength steels that provide up to five times the strength of conventional mild steel in key parts of the body and doors, without adding extra weight.
“We engineered the body to keep all the benefits of the new door concept, while making the structure strong, stiff and light,” said Darren Palmer, Product Development Quality Director, Ford of Europe. “Creating a strong, stable body is great for handling. The B-MAX is just as stiff as the latest Fiesta, and will be just as fun to drive too.”

Ford Fiesta 2011 Specs And Features

Ford Fiesta 2011 is a 4-door, 5 passenger family sedan or wagon, available in 5 trims, ranging from the Sedan S Hatchback SES. Upon introduction, both motifs are equipped with a standard 119-horsepower 1.6-liter, I4, which achieves 28 mpg in the city and 37 mpg on the highway. A 5-speed manual transmission with overdrive is standard, and a 6-speed automatic transmission with overdrive is optional.

Fiesta gets the most out of every corner, thanks to the technical precision only a Ford-tuned suspension can offer. Taking on straightaways is a smooth affair, too, when you combine electric power-assisted steering with the proprietary Ford invention, active nibble control. Covert aerodynamic design and critical technology such as the class-exclusive PowerShift six-speed automatic and 1.6L Ti-VCT Duratec® I4 engine with twin-independent variable cam timing make it a responsive and fuel-responsible driving experience.

Rapid-fire shifting is enhanced by a powertrain control module making real-time adjustments, producing efficient mobility. Fiesta also boasts many aerodynamic design characteristics that help minimize air resistance and increase fuel efficiency, such as the aero-shaped body-mounted mirrors and the line cut into the rear taillamps. The optional Super Fuel Economy Package offers additional aerodynamic details such as underbody shields and blockers on the lower grille.

Fiesta is designed to amplify the anticipation of the drive and physically engage your senses. Thoughtful design cues like the class-exclusive* 4" multifunctional LCD display screen and cell phone-inspired center console with cascading buttons are pleasing to the eyes and the touch. Available features such as front heated leather-trimmed seats, SYNC® in-car connectivity system and Intelligent Access with push-button start reinforce that Fiesta is a choice, not a compromise.

The safety advancements in the 2011 Fiesta give you the peace of mind to enjoy the quick and nimble performance that makes Fiesta so much fun to drive. Fiesta provides seven standard air bags-more standard airbags than any other compact cars in its class*- and includes side curtain airbags. There’s even an airbag at the driver’s knees. And here’s another way Fiesta raises the bar on safety: a protective “safety cage” made of boron - an element so strong it’s used in the aerospace industry- surrounds both driver and passengers.

Fiesta has no qualms about standing out, starting at the front end with a three-bar grille and distinctive dragon’s-eye headlamps. A razor-slash side panel highlights the car’s cut-and-run stance, while the upswept rear end makes it look like it’s ready to launch. Available ambient lighting and available bright metallic accents create a radiant glow that surrounds the interior, and unique exterior colors emphasize Fiesta’s effervescent personality bubbling to the surface.

New Ford Generation, 2011 Ford Flex

The 2011 Flex is a 4-door, up to seven-passenger sport-utility, available in 7 trims, ranging from the SE FWD to the AWD Titanium.

2011 Ford Flex is not changed significantly from the model in 2010, although he adds a new top-line model of Titanium with added features and appearance of certain signs. HD Digital Radio is now included with the package of voice-activated navigation, and Titanium Limited model and add a new option, Ford PowerFold third-row split-folding bench seat folds and tumbles forward with the touch of a button. Flex is still a kind of experiment-in-progress as a test of Ford for the crossover market that can play the role of a minivan, an SUV pulling a trailer such as weight, and looks like nothing else on the road.

Introduction Upon, the SE FWD is equipped with a standard 3.5-liter, V6, 262-horsepower engine achieves 17-mpg That in the 24-mpg city and on the highway. The Titanium AWD is equipped with a standard 3.5-liter, V6, 262-horsepower engine achieves 16-mpg That in the city and 22-mpg on the highway. A six-speed automatic transmission with overdrive is standard trims on both.

Most versions of the Ford Flex 2011 carry over unchanged from the model-year 2010, though only a few treatments available exterior paints. Part of the new-of-the-line Titanium trim levels amp up and see the interior exterior Limited model, which shares equipment and features. 2011 Flex Titanium Black gets two-tone roof of Tuxedo, a black-out lights and trim all taillamps, grille, black chrome finish with a leading "" nomenclature Flex at the spearhead of the hood, and 20-inch 10-spoke polished aluminum wheels. Inside, it will be cut by charcoal black leather seats with gray inserts, illuminated scuff plates, and touch on various kinds added.

The 2011 Ford Flex gets no notable mechanical changes. Like an SUV, this big wagon is available with all-wheel-drive (AWD) and has a slightly elevated seating height. But it’s a crossover because instead of separate-body-on-frame truck-type construction, it has a car-based architecture in which body and frame essentially are a single unit. The 2011 Flex shares this “unibody” platform with the more curvaceous Lincoln MKT crossover, with the Ford Taurus and Lincoln MKS sedans, and with the redesigned 2011 Ford Explorer SUV.

The 2011 Flex continues with a wide array of convenience features, including driving aids that enhance stability and steering control. You can get your Flex with seven-passenger capacity via front buckets and second- and third-row bench seats. The alternative is a six-passenger arrangement with a pair of second-row buckets. Added for 2011 as an option on Limited and Titanium models is Ford’s PowerFold third-row bench that automatically tumbles into a floor well on a 50/50 split basis at the touch of a button.

Standard safety equipment on the 2011 Flex includes head-protecting curtain side airbags designed to deploy in a side collision as well as when sensors detect an impending rollover. Tilt/telescope steering, cruise control, and rear obstacle detection are among features standard on all models. So is Ford’s MyKey teen-driver-safety system in which the ignition key can be programmed to limit Flex’s top speed to 80 mph and the radio prevented from playing until safety belts are buckled, among other safety strategies. Features that are standard or optional, depending on model, include an electrically cooled second-row center console, remote engine start, leather upholstery, heated front seats, and Ford’s Vista Moonroof panoramic glass ceiling with opening panel.

Ford presented the first official pictures of the new generation Ford Focus 2011 that will have its world premiere during the day, at the Auto Show in Detroit. Unlike the previous generations, the new Focus is a global model, planning to have the same form in the US and Europe, which is also why the model is presented to an auto show in its native country. Moreover, Ford has chosen – for this very reason – to present, in the same time, both the hatchback and the sedan versions of the new model, the US market being accustomed to rather choose the ordinary four-door version than the Focus hatchback so present on the European streets.

Focus’s design is purely European, the car being developed at a design center in Germany that the Michigan brand owns. The dimensions remained the same both for the sedan and the hatchback, the dimensions of the chassis and the suspension’s hardware being also borrowed from the old generation, with the necessary improvements.
