The fifth-generation Ford Mondeo is a sedan manufactured by Ford through its joint venture Changan Ford in China since 2022. It is the replacement for the outgoing fourth-generation Mondeo and the Chinese market Taurus. The car is the sedan counterpart of the Evos crossover, and shares the same platform as the mid-size luxury Lincoln Z. It is also marketed in the Middle East as the Ford Taurus.
Potential return to North America
On June 26th, 2023 Ford CEO Jim Farley announced his intentions to bring the Taurus back for the United States market. It is currently unknown what trims will be available or if there will be a police package.
Overview
The fifth-generation Ford Mondeo was first spied testing in Belgium in June 2021,[5] then again in Michigan, United States later in October 2021.[6] It is exclusively produced and sold in China, as Ford now focuses on pickup trucks, SUVs, and the Mustang in North America.[4]
The fifth-generation Mondeo is powered by Changan Ford’s CAF488WQC 2.0-litre turbocharged gasoline engine with an output of 238 PS (175 kW; 235 hp) and 376 N⋅m (277 lb⋅ft) of torque, giving the car a top speed of 225 km/h (140 mph). The middle eastern Taurus makes 232 PS (171 kW; 229 hp) and 388 N⋅m (286 lb⋅ft). The Mondeo uses an eight-speed automatic transmission and is front-wheel drive.[3][7]
Trim levels in China are Fashion, Sport and ST-Line.[8]
