2015 Ford Mondeo Wagon front

He all-new Ford Mondeo delivers the worldwide introduction of a fresh pedestrian discovery technology that might help help motorists avoid them completely or reduce the seriousness of injuries.

Pre-Crash Help with Pedestrian Detection attribute is delivered alongside the version's widest ever range of powertrains including the very first Mondeo petrol-electric hybrid vehicle. A fresh 210 PS TDCi diesel engine with twin serial turbocharging is going to be around early next year.

Obtainable in four door and five-door bodystyles, so when a station wagon - developed especially for Europe - the new Mondeo offers technologies including Ford's adaptive LED headlamps, greater refinement and craftsmanship, Inflatable Back Seatbelts and Multi-Contour Seats; and innovative layout.

"Attributes like Pre-Crash Help with Pedestrian Discovery add safety and protection for motorists in active urban states."

Finding pedestrians

Ford's new Pre-Crash Help with Pedestrian Detection can find individuals in or close to the trail or who might cross over the route of the vehicle's, in the event the device finds a possible crash in the event the driver will not react to warnings, it applies the brakes. The system procedures information gathered from a windshield-mounted camera, and radar situated in the fender, and assesses it against a database of "pedestrian contours" to help recognize individuals from typical roadside scenery and things.

A crash becomes at hand, as well as in case a pedestrian is found before the vehicle, the motorist will initially receive a visual and audible warning. If the motorist not react, the system shortens the time needed to implement the brakes by lessening the gap between disks and brake pads. The brakes are applied mechanically, when there's still no reaction in the motorist as well as the vehicle speed is reduced.

The system was examined by engineers on closed circuits using rigs fitted with life size dummies. In addition they spent months refining and testing the system on roads all over the world to establish system dependability under real world conditions.

"The real life testing was an essential element of the development. Pedestrians come in most sizes and shapes, and take on an unlimited variety of positions," said Gregor Allexi, active security engineer, Ford of Europe. "We covered more than 500,000 kilometres that contained an exceptionally broad variety of individuals and possible scenarios."

The all-new Mondeo additionally will use automatic braking prevent or to mitigate a crash using a vehicle forward. At higher rates new Pre-Crash Assistance uses camera and radar technology allowing it to scan forward and mechanically use as much as total braking power to aid the motorist prevent or mitigate various kinds of rear-end collision.

Radar technology further empowers Adaptive Cruise Control technology and the newest Space Indicator attribute. Space Indicator supplies an intuitive visual interface to notify the motorist of that time period difference to the car forward. Adaptive Cruise Control automatically keeps a distance that is preferred from the car ahead.

Engine that is most extensive variety ever

Class-leading dynamics

The primary version for Europe to be constructed on Ford's new world-wide CD-section platform, the -new Mondeo will debut the new built-in link rear suspension setup for more dynamic functionality and improved refinement of Ford.

"Having a body structure that is 10 per cent stiffer in relation to the last generation Mondeo and management-improving technology which includes Torque Vectoring Control, this can be the most receptive and versatile Mondeo yet," Koesters said.

More powerful body with stuff that are state-of-the-art

The all-new Ford Mondeo uses production processes and advanced stuff to produce improved security and greater strength with increased sustainability and reduced weight.

An industry-first use of hydroformed high strength steel can be used to make the A pillars, B pillars, and roof rails. A fresh magnesium interior tailgate construction for the four- and five-door versions provides a weight-saving of around 40 per cent when compared with a conventional steel equivalent.

"The weight conserved during development continues to be carefully reinvested into fuel-economy attributes like aero-shields and Auto-Start-Stop technology; relaxation and convenience features; and a more powerful and safer body structure," Koesters said. "We have enhanced the strength of security related regions by 40 per cent, and checked the performance with thousands of computer simulations and much more than 180 real world crash tests."

Bake-tempered steel can be used in the roof construction to lessen weight by an additional 0.5 kg.

Comfort, security and convenience technology

All-new Mondeo introduces Ford's adaptive LED headlamp technology to Europe; joining complete-LED headlamps with the Adaptive Front Lighting System of Ford to improve the motorist's view of environment.

An innovative version of Active Park Support featuring Perpendicular Parking enables motorists to find -sized invert hands-free and parallel parking spaces into spaces and is supported by Park-Outside Support, which helps motorists to leave parking spaces that are parallel. Side Parking Assistance additionally warns motorists of challenges to the front, in addition to to the sides of the vehicles and back.

Ford's business-first Inflatable Back Seatbelt technology is likely to make its European debut to the all-new Mondeo. In case of a collision, the belt quickly grows to disperse crash forces across a body region five times greater than that attained with a seatbelt that is traditional.

Mondeo additionally will improve convenience and relaxation for motorists with attributes including first-in-class power- memory, flexible -equipped steering column, Ford Multi-Contour Seats with Effective Motion massage function that is exceptional, and the SYNC 2 connectivity system of Ford.

Section-first increased MyKey technology will empower a key to be programmed by Mondeo owners - generally for younger motorists. MyKey can inhibit incoming phone calls together with limiting the very best rate; reducing the most volume of the audio system preventing deactivation of security features and motorist support, if motorist and passengers will not be using safety belts and disabling the system completely.

Outstanding refinement, quality and layout

Road noise reductions of approximately 3 decibels in the back and 2 decibels in the front have now been reached with extra sound deadening stuff and built-in link rear suspension, while 8 per cent reduces wind noise to amounts previously only experienced in the superior section.

Mondeo delivers best- quality and craftsmanship for the tasteful, elegant, exceptionally expressive and sporty outside, and also the inside that features relaxation and optimised ergonomics, with gear and superior finishes.

Created at Ford's state of the art plant in Valencia, Spain, the -new Mondeo include a retractable panoramic glass roof for the station wagon bodystyle and will feature a sports coupe profile. The thin side-profile is sculpted to conduct "visual lightness," while the refined and technical front end layout features Ford's more notable trapezoidal grille, a power-dome bonnet and adaptive, slim-line, laser-cut headlamp layout.

Indoors, Mondeo motorists are greeted with an electronic analogue device cluster, while a sleek, wraparound center cabinet layout provides a sporty, cockpit-like feel.

All-New Ford Mondeo Improves Relaxation with Advanced Chassis Advanced Technology and Sound -Reducing Body

The all-new Ford Mondeo leverages progressive motorist assistance high quality inside, an advanced chassis construction, and technologies to provide outstanding comfort and refinement.

Technologies including Active Park Support featuring Perpendicular Parking and Ford's first adaptive LED headlamps in Europe lead to some driving experience that is simplified.

"From systems that direct motorists handsfree out of parking spaces at the beginning of journeys to seats that deflate allowing simple departure in the finish, the Mondeo is centered on the occupant from beginning to end."
