			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">This striking concept debuted at the Geneva Motor Show. Take a look at the future Ford! This stunning car called Iosis MAX is a concept car that shows in what direction will a new generation C-MAX and Focus develop.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;">The presenter of the vehicle at the Geneva Motor Show was Martin Smith, a project leader, a man who was at the forefront of the design of the MAX, the main trends of which have been shown at S-MAX in 2004. The aggressive grille, stretched headlights, taillights licking the sides of the body, all-glass roof, these things will be moved to the production version of the C-MAX.There are reports that there is a number of innovations, such as the sliding rear doors, roof spoiler, the lack of side racks and futuristic &#8220;floating&#8221; seats.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-823" title="Ford_Iosis_MAX_1" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/Ford_Iosis_MAX_1.jpeg" alt="Ford_Iosis_MAX_1" width="630" height="471" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Although the four-seat concept car is worse than the current C-MAX, the production version will be available in full &#8211; five-seat, as close to the sporty appearance of the concept, and the first time in seven-seat variant. The car will also be available in a bright yellow color.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-824" title="Ford_Iosis_MAX_2" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/Ford_Iosis_MAX_2.jpeg" alt="Ford_Iosis_MAX_2" width="630" height="472" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The vehicle is also expected to be in presented in the concept of multifunctional instrument panel, with a new Human Machine Interface management system, and rearview camera.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-825" title="Ford_Iosis_MAX_3" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/Ford_Iosis_MAX_3.jpeg" alt="Ford_Iosis_MAX_3" width="630" height="472" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The car will be equipped with powerful 1.6-liter turbocharged four-cylinder EcoBoost, the automatic stop and start system, as well as Powershift gearbox. As for the new C-MAX, it is planned to start sales in 2010. Currently, however, this date is questionable.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-827" title="Ford_Iosis_MAX_4" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/Ford_Iosis_MAX_4.jpeg" alt="Ford_Iosis_MAX_4" width="630" height="472" /></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-702" title="ford-focus" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/ford-focus-300x225.jpg" alt="ford-focus" width="300" height="225" />An idea occurred to us to check, which brand of cars after all has the best sales results in Russia. After a short research, we found out that it was Ford Focus. Not only this car is the most popular on the Moscow car market but it is also the most popular throughout Russia. This is of course affected by a number of reasons. According to its class the car is well suited to most of Russia&#8217;s population. It is a prestigious foreign car for driving, it does not need much gasoline, and the car itself is not expensive. Especially the service of the car is not very expensive. Honestly I also liked Ford Focus. The impressions after driving this car are rather positive. I would say they are quite good, if we compare the car with the competitors of the same class. There is nothing especially to find disadvantages with. Slightly less sales than Ford in the automobile market of Russia has shown the Mitsubishi Lancer model. These two brands of automobiles are in the same class, and consequently they have shown the same sales results. According to the statistics, in a total of three years, nearly 1-thousand cars of these brands have been sold in Moscow.</p>

The car with three doors will be built on the platform of Kuga!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Of course, Kuga Coupe will not be intended to run off road (actually, the normal Kuga is also designed like that ). However coupe will have a slightly increased ground clearance, as well as complete drive system. As a result, as Ford representatives expect , the car will have not only excellent handling, but also be very practical, because it is still possible to be fairly quiet move to the rural track.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">It should be noted that the recent fashion for off-road coupe is becoming stronger. The success of BMW X6 has forced many companies to begin development of similar models, but, as yet, no one offers a coupe-road in the middle price category.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-432" title="ford" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/ford.jpg" alt="ford" width="250" height="166" />After the success of the new Fiesta, the company Ford has decided to adapt for this vehicle an automatic transmission Durashift. This gearbox will be fitted Duratec with petrol engine, which has the volume of 1.4 liters and develops 96 hp.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The new channel will allow Fiesta to accelerate up to hundred km/h for only 13.9 seconds, with average fuel consumption at 5.4 liters for 100 km. run. These indicators are better compared with the serial model.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Installation of an automatic gearbox, of course, would entail the revision of certain other elements of the car, such as the accelerator pedal, as well as the need to setup an electronic throttle, which must now respond much more quickly.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">“According to statistics, about 10% of buyers of midget cars, want to purchase equipment with automatic transmission. That is why the automatic transmission for the Fiesta is a significant addition to the already existing selection “- said Chris Meurs, the manager of Ford.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Durashift Fiesta 1.4 liter will be offered in three equipment: Style +, Zetec and Titanium.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">It should be noted that in March of this year Ford Fiesta was the most popular car with the total number sold since the beginning of the year. Fiesta sold more than 52 800 units worldwide.</p>
