The Ford Grand C-MAX is a seven-seat MPV, which is more compact than the Ford Galaxy 
It goes head-to-head with rivals like the Citroen Grand C4 Picasso and Renault Grand Scenic If you don't need as much space, there's also the Ford C-MAX, but that only has five seats Drivers of the Ford Focus will recognise much of the interior, because the C-MAX shares a lot of its technology One of the Grand C-MAX's best features is its sliding rear doors, giving great access to the back seats The middle row tilts to allow access to the rearmost seats, which are best suited to children Lots of configurations are possible, with the middle seat even doubling as a picnic table when not occupied With all seven seats in use, the boot shrinks to a tiny 65 litres, so a roofbox might be necessary The rearmost seats are easy to put up and down, folding flat into the boot floor when stowed away With five seats in place, the boot expands to 448 litres, making it more practical than a family hatchback You can even create a long and flat loading space for tall items while still carrying passengers Fold down all the rear seats and there's a flat floor and 1,715 litres of room For even more space, you can also remove the rear seats, but they are quite heavy The Grand C-MAX comes with turbocharged engines including a 1.0-litre petrol and 1.5-litre diesel The 1.5-litre diesel manages over 62mpg and emits 113g/km of CO2, making it affordable to run
