Ford Capri review - Boot space, practicality & boot dimensions
“Despite a coupe-SUV body, the Capri is still very practical and offers lots of interior and boot space”
The Ford Capri is a large car that, despite a ‘coupe’ design that incorporates a sloping roofline, is more comparable in size to an SUV. The fact that it’s an EV also allows for a flat floor, devoid of the kind of intrusions from the mechanical under-car gubbins you’d find on conventional combustion-engined cars, so it’s pretty spacious.
The rear seats are roomy and there’s plenty of headroom on offer, plus lots of hidden compartments to store knicknacks, such as the one behind the infotainment screen. Up front it’s by no means cramped, but Ford’s decision to place a large centre console between the front passengers means it feels a little more snug than in the back.
There are just two ISOFIX points – one for each of the outer rear seats. A high window line does mean the back seats get a more restricted view than you’d get in the Explorer, however.

Does the Ford Capri have a big boot?
The Ford Capri is a coupe-SUV that lets you have your cake and eat it, because despite having a sloping roofline and racier appearance, the boot isn’t that much smaller than that of the Ford Explorer. That said, its shape is less practical, as you might expect, so if practicality is the priority you’d be better off with the boxier car.
Unfortunately the Ford Capri doesn’t come with frunk up front, because Ford has placed lots of the electric components under there.
