In 2010, a restyling was carried out and appeared at the Moscow auto show updated version... Ford Mondeo 4 exists in 3 different types body: sedan, station wagon, hatchback. The technical characteristics of the Ford Mondeo 4 interested many, which became the reason for successful sales in 2008, 2011 and subsequent years. Ford Mondeo 4 has a modern comfortable suspension and a wide range of engines. Taking into account the needs and quality of the road, the suspension can be set in 3 different modes:
- Comfort.
- Normal.
- Sport.
Depending on the selected mode, the suspension configuration and its behavior on the road change. For a leisurely and unhurried ride, Comfort is used, and to obtain rigidity and stiffness of the chassis, the Sport mode is used. In general, this is enough for normal movement in all conditions and to ensure predictable behavior of the Ford Mondeo on the road. The main advantage of the suspension is its reliability, durability and good handling, despite the fact that the size of the car is considerable.
Power units and transmission
Choice ford engines Mondeo is quite large, and therefore, depending on your needs and financial capabilities, you can choose the version you need. If you do not need impressive dynamics, and the priority is economy, then you can choose the initial version with a volume of 1.6 liters. it conventional engine (without turbine) with modest fuel consumption figures. In addition, there are 5 engine versions to choose from, and their specifications the following:
- 2.0 liters (145 hp) - also simple gasoline engine with good traction and dynamic performance. Moreover, its appetite for fuel consumption is noticeably greater than that of the previous version.
- 2.3 liters (161 hp) - This option works exclusively with automatic transmission gear. That is why its dynamics is slightly worse than that of the model with mechanics, but it cannot be called insufficient. At the same time, the fuel consumption is quite serious.
- 2.0 liters (200 hp) - gasoline engine, which is equipped with a 7-speed robotic gearbox... It is equipped with a turbine, which allows it to achieve serious power and show good dynamics - 7.9 seconds to hundreds!
- 2.0 liters (240hp) - the most strong engine of all possible for the Ford Mondeo 4. Despite this, the flow rate is not very different from their weaker counterparts. Working in tandem with DSG7, the technical characteristics of which are quite impressive, it provides excellent dynamics and is able to accelerate from 0 to 100 km / h in 7.5 seconds.
- 2.0 liters (140hp) - the only one diesel enginethat can be put on a Ford Mondeo. It is equipped with a turbocharger with an intercooling system. Has modest fuel consumption and sufficient dynamics. Despite the fact that he gains weaving in 10 seconds, he has excellent traction (320 nomes).
As you might have already guessed, depending on the configuration and engine type, 3 gearbox options could be installed:
- 5-speed manual transmission.
- 6-speed automatic.
- DSC7.
Fuel consumption figures
The amount of fuel consumed is extremely important characteristic car. In this regard, the 2007 Ford Mondeo is a very good choice. The fact is that almost all engines from the proposed line have rather modest appetites. But their disadvantage is that with small consumption rates declared by the manufacturer, the real data can be very different. The problem is that Ford is reporting performance that has been achieved under near-ideal conditions and using very high quality fuel. Considering the quality of fuel and roads in our country, one cannot count on such results. At the same time, if you drive carefully, you can achieve good savings. So, the fuel consumption figures for Ford Mondeo are as follows:
dimensions
Ford car Mondeo 4 has a fairly large size, which allows for comfort and at the same time the ability to carry a large number of things, which is an undoubted advantage. The specifications described by the manufacturer are as follows:
- The length of the car (sedan) is 4850 mm, while the width of the car is almost 2 meters - 1886 mm. The height of the Mondeo is also surprising - 1500 mm. In addition, the trunk of the car is also quite large and roomy, since it has a volume of 493 liters. This space is enough not only for transporting small items, but also for large and bulky goods.
- The Ford Mondeo station wagon is slightly taller (12 mm), but shorter than the sedan and is 4837 mm in length. The width has not changed in any way, but the dimensions of the trunk are striking. It can hold a maximum of 1680 liters!
- The hatchback is shorter than the sedan by 100 mm and is 4784 mm in length. The width and height are exactly the same as the sedan. At the same time, the trunk is quite large and its capacity can vary from 496 to 1390 liters.
The front track is 1588 mm and the rear track is 1605 mm. As for the size of the wheels, depending on the configuration, discs from 16 to 19 radius can be installed.

Ford Mondeo III owner reviews
Ford Mondeo iii, 2002
I can with complete confidence call Ford Mondeo III your old and good friendwho has never failed! I have been driving a car for four years and the mileage here is not "childish", but it seems that you just drove a car from a car dealership! In terms of design appearance, and the way the salon is made - everything is perfect, I really like it! The biggest plus is that my "Ford" did not even think to spoil my mood. You just ride it and enjoy life, but just do not forget that he is your friend, which means that you treat him as a friend and do not forget that you need to go through all the planned maintenance, do not skimp on "consumables". In terms of driving performance, handling - so much has been said and retold that I will not repeat myself, what to say about what everyone already knows.
The only drawback of the Mondeo III is that it always needs gasoline only high Quality, at least so that the gas station you visit was more or less famous brand... Once, when I just started driving, I drove in to refuel at our "local", I call them oil traders, so then after their fuel there were many problems. "Ford" refuses to "digest" such gasoline, so they had to remove the tank, clean everything there, replace filters, and the fuel pump. Now I have already learned from bitter experience, so I only go to proven gas stations and everything is super with my car - it drives me like a breeze.
Advantages : interior and exterior design, driving performance, handling.
disadvantages : only high quality gasoline is needed.

Ford Mondeo III, 2003
During the operation, the Ford Mondeo III has never failed, if we judge adequately. Convenient rear compartment, front row seats do not cause much inconvenience to passengers in the back. Roomy trunk. Complete spare wheel - important distinctive feature from modern cars... The downside of this car, like some other Fords, is the way the hood is opened. Simply pointless, never understood Henry. The air from the stove blows very well, the interior quickly warms up in winter. But it's hard to start in the cold. With a new battery in Finland this year at -35C, I refused to start. I had to use a tractor from a local owner. Thank God that the manual transmission! They brought it in, everything is fine. I sin on our gasoline.
Speed \u200b\u200bindicators are good, I didn't squeeze everything out - it's noisy. But 180 km / h - "flies" easily and confidently. You can talk without raising your voice. Oil with a run of 90,000 km ate 300 grams (from "MAX" to the middle of the level). Once I filled it in, I ride. Servicemen say that there is no need to top up. Natural "waste" of oil from replacement to replacement, i.e. for 120,000 km - the norm. The spare parts have their own nuances, you can't predict everything, there is a lot of European "non-original" of decent quality, at an affordable price.
Advantages : like rear suspension, the child drove behind him constantly sleeping. I consider the 2-liter engine to be the “golden mean”. The dynamics of the car is amazing.
disadvantages : expensive original spare parts.

Ford Mondeo III, 2005
At first, the feelings were exclusively "euphoric" - this is the first new car in family. Everything is clean, it smells nice. Over time, the former gloss disappeared, but the positive feelings remained. The car is very comfortable for its class and then the price. The seats of Ford Mondeo III are upholstered with high-quality and pleasant to the touch fabric, they do not heat up much in the summer, cold car it is possible without discomfort, but in extreme cases there is a multi-stage heated front seats. On the doors and the dashboard there is soft plastic, a leather steering wheel, in the middle of the "beard" there is a representative Sony radio tape recorder. In general, the interior is quite classic. Handling - here I did not notice any special flaws, well, I would not note any outstanding abilities of the car either. Yes, it confidently enters the turn, but you should not forget about the speed. Ford Mondeo III brakes are very grippy, never let down. Comfort in the cabin when driving at the level. Noise isolation is a "head" higher than most "Japanese", the plastic is soft and therefore no extraneous sounds, well, to sit - it is convenient to steer, the review is again good.
Dynamics: This is where the car loses. And, as it seems to me, it's all about the automatic, yes, yes, the "ancient" 4-speed automatic. You drive 100 km / h, press the "sneaker" on the floor, the car with the sound of a trolleybus picking up speed is quietly driving forward, especially when fully loaded. And what I also didn’t like was the vague gas pedal. And the most important thing is safety. I checked it myself. The car worked 100 percent and if it didn’t save life, then it definitely saved it from serious injuries. I was driving around the new Riga about 180 km / h, in front of me in a technological turn the "Nine" unfolded. I slowed down twenty meters, tried to leave, but failed. "Nine" turned over, I turned around. Was strapped on, felt nothing, not a single scratch. Passengers with rear seat nines with severe injuries have been treated for over a year. Everyone is healthy now.
Advantages : comfort. Finishing. Safety.
disadvantages : automatic

Ford Mondeo III, 2004
At first impressions, Ford Mondeo III seemed to be very playful and dynamic, spacious, comfortable and soft. I liked the big (for a sedan) trunk. Mondeo has a very good acceleration, it's nice to keep it at a speed of up to (120), it is not comfortable and expensive further. I clocked up to 180 km / h as much as possible once as an experiment. Feels like he can easily do more, but I did not find a suitable path for such a feat, and there was no desire. It keeps the road well: on long turns at a speed of about 100 km / h, even being thrown on a bump, it did not have to be caught. When changing lanes across the track in winter, you don't need to catch it either, it holds the road perfectly. The brakes are a separate issue. Compared to many ordinary cars, Ford Mondeo III stands rooted to the spot during hard braking. But this is summer. In winter, due to the heavy weight of the car and ABS braking comes out long enough. There is plenty of room ahead for both the driver and the passenger. There is also a lot of space behind. The knees do not rest. Can comfortably fit 3 medium men (70-100 kg). Also in the background, 2 children in car seats and a wife in the middle of them feel good. Consumes about 12 liters per 100 km. Doesn't eat oil at all. The pads last for a long time. Auto reliable in handling. Never let down. It rarely breaks, spare parts are inexpensive, there is everything for disassembly. Much interchangeable from other Fords. Repaired at home in the garage with my own hands, but I have 2 of my excellent craftsmen.
Advantages : smart. Maneuverable. Good brakes... Excellent road holding. Reliable. Inexpensive and easy to maintain. Heating on the front and rear window. Spacious salon and trunk.
disadvantages : low. It clings to curbs, cannot enter the "winter" parking space... Strange hood lock. Front wheel bearings serve 20 thousand km.

Ford Mondeo III, 2006
The overall impression of the Ford Mondeo III is excellent. Ford was operated from the moment of purchase until April 2013, walked 101,500 km, visited and felt for himself, and more than once, almost any conditions, ranging from frost under -30 and ending with heat for +40, in snowfalls and showers with hail in extremely low visibility. Both are quite long (Moscow, Ukraine, Astrakhan region, Crimea). During all this time, nothing has caused serious complaints. At the same time, he flew once on a road near Kursk at night on and so almost a "front road" into a hole, breaking both right wheels and killing one disc, but even the suspension, as it turned out after checking, did not warp in any way. Convergence-collapse, however, still adjusted once during the operation - but this is already supposed to be done periodically. I never let it down in cold weather with the launch. True, it was operated almost daily, starting in 2009 (the battery is constantly being charged). Driving performance... I think it's great. Even in extreme braking, even in a sharp turn with such, he always clearly goes behind the wheel and obeys him. I love to drive, with a passport of 9.8 to a hundred, it was quite possible, the dimensions were very well felt. Each sandpiper, of course, praises its swamp, but every day, driving 20 km around the city and 20 along the highway to work, even in the worst snowy or wet weather I stuck out in the high-speed left lane and rarely interfered with the cars going behind. In bad weather, perhaps, these are even one-time situations at all - the car instilled only a sense of confidence. Consumption of 7.8-8.2 l / 100 km on the highway and somewhere 10.5-11.5 in the city, given the Moscow traffic jams, is quite the norm. Comfortableness. Excellent. Now moved to new mercedes "E-shku" - more comfortable, of course, but not radically. Plus, Ford has a higher ceiling (my height is 181 cm, I like sitting position). The salon is very spacious, the seats are comfortable. A family of 4 adults traveled 1200 km - no problem.
Advantages : design. Ergonomics. Comfortableness. Finishing. Service availability. Adaptation to Russian conditions.
disadvantages : small.

Ford Mondeo III, 2003
"Mondeo 3" 2003 1.8 MT, at that time I was the 4th owner with a range of 153 thousand (rewound by itself, but that's not the point). The engine, in principle, suited (125 hp), I'm not a racer, I drove 80-110, clocked it a couple of times for the sake of wondering how long it would go, top speed 205, no longer drives. Moreover, it accelerates slowly due to its weight. For normal driving on the highway and in the city, it is enough, Gasoline eats average (well, for its class, of course) - mixed consumption 8 liters, highway 6 liters at 80-90 km, city up to 12 liters with climate. The oil ate up when frisky and high speed, flooded the floor with synthetics, changed every 8 thousand, 5 liters all left. In principle, the fact that it ate a little was not particularly annoying, the car is not new. There were no problems with the engine at all, but the equipment - generator (light flashed), fan, pump - were being replaced. The handbrake did it myself (the handbrake jams and does not let go) eliminated the usual reinforced spring... On the way - sound insulation is rather weak, but the suspension and weight of the Ford Mondeo III do their job. The car holds the road very well, and there is no difference between 80 km / h and 180 km / h, everything is clear, the side wind does not blow away. Beautiful appearance and interior at a height, I really liked the soft interior upholstery (torpedo and door panels), which for 12 years neither rubbed nor scratched. The seats are not to say that they are excellent, the front is comfortable, the back never got tired, and at the back there is a jamb with latches for seat belts, I immediately unscrewed them, of course, there is a lot of space, but if you turn when driving, then it is not comfortable to sit in the back, people will feel like wood , which will be thrown, then to the left, then to the right. Now for the service. Expensive, but I didn't buy the original and didn't really feel the pressure of finance.
Advantages : torquey engine. Comfortable salon... Reliable if you follow.
disadvantages : insulation is rather weak.
Pavel, Krasnodar
Ford Mondeo III, 2005
I own a Ford Mondeo III for over 10 years. Investments - several times bearings (hubs), springs in a circle, rear struts. A couple of years ago I changed the thermostat, the other day (finally) the generator flew. I changed the battery a month ago, it started up perfectly, but - 10 years and winter is ahead. Otherwise, no problem. Of course, consumables were changed (pads, once the disks were changed), I try to change the oil every 10-12 thousand (pour my native "Ford"). Several times with a full load we rode south to Sevastopol, we regularly go to Finland - all without the slightest hint of problems, the consumption on the highway, even after 170 thousand, is about 7 liters per hundred. I'm happy with the car.
Advantages : the budgetary cost of spare parts. Maintainability. Ease of driving. Comfort (especially in winter conditions). Reliability.
disadvantages : Hood lock. Small volume of the washer reservoir.

The 5th generation Ford Mondeo mid-size sedan is built on the CD4 platform, which is an evolution of the CD3. The car body is made with wide use of high-strength steels, the share of which reaches 61%. The fifth generation Mondeo is a global model, i.e. unified for markets different countries... Nevertheless, there are certain differences in technology between the machines offered overseas, in the Old World and in Russia. For example, the suspension settings are different - on the Russian version, the elastic suspension elements are tuned for a softer operation than on the European version of the sedan. The very same scheme is the same - front MacPherson and rear multi-link. Also for the domestic market, by tradition, the ground clearance, which amounted to 140 mm against 128 "European".
Three gasoline units are designed to accelerate a one and a half ton car in the Russian specification:
- 2.5-liter "naturally aspirated" Duratec with multipoint injection and phase change system on intake valves. Maximum power engine - 149 hp, peak torque - 225 Nm. The potential of the "four" allows you to produce up to 177 hp, but it was deformed to reduce the transport tax.
- 2.0-liter EcoBoost (199 hp) with turbocharger, direct injection into the combustion chamber and the Ti-VCT gas distribution system (change of phases at the inlet and outlet).
- 2.0-liter EcoBoost 240 hp - a variation of the 199-horsepower motor with increased power.
Each of the engines is paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission.
In Europe, Ford Mondeo 5 is represented by a much wider range of modifications. There is, for example, diesel versions with turbo engines 1.6 (115 HP), 2.0 (150-180 HP) and 2.0 (210 HP). Also available are supercharged gasoline units EcoBoost 1.0 (125 HP) and EcoBoost 1.5 (160 HP) Since the data power plants are not represented on our market, we will not consider them in detail.
Turbocharged engines add energy to the Mondeo, allowing for more intense acceleration. The most "high-spirited" modification with a 240-strong "four" EcoBoost reaches "hundreds" in 7.9 seconds. The version with a 199-horsepower engine yields almost a second, with an "aspirated" 2.5 liter - more than 2 seconds. Good dynamics, well-tuned suspension and effective brakes allow you to be nimble while driving Mondeo without fear of losing control over the car. Probably, this is one of the most driver's models in its segment.
The four-door looks pretty good in terms of fuel efficiency. According to the declared technical characteristics, the Ford Mondeo 2.5 burns an average of about 8.2 liters per 100 kilometers. Modifications with supercharged EcoBoost engines are slightly more economical on gasoline, consuming mixed cycle 8.0 liters. The actual fuel consumption of a sedan with any engine will be approximately 10 liters / 100 km.
