I have the first generation c-max energi which is a plug-in hybrid. I love the gas efficiency. Since I am working from home, I fill up my gas tank about once a month! Since ford does not make this vehicle anymore I am not able to get the sync system updated. I can get my groceries in the back since it is a wagon and it is just big enough to not be too big. I have 103,000 miles on it and it operates as if it is new! It has a very smooth ride and I love the heated seats! I plan on replacing the vehicle in about 4 years. I feel it still has a lot of miles ahead of it!

Comfy, reliable and stylish.
Haven't had this car for very long but no major problems since I got it. Great performance and reliability, comfortable, and has a self driving feature-help with backing up in reverse. Has color changing lights for the door handles & cup holders when it is dark out.

Love having a hybrid for the better mileage.
The comfort level is great, it performs well, has all the bells and whistles. Problems: it is expensive to maintain, everything costs a fortune, it is a pain to have to plug it in to charge it and the batteries cost more than the car is worth to replace.

Hybrid cars are awesome!
It works really well. It is great with gas mileage and is roomy enough for my family of four. We took a 5,600 mile road trip in it this past summer and it was great the entire time! As a historical SUV person, I never thought I would enjoy a smaller car as much as I do!

Good hybrid. Nice handling. Good mileage.
Great mileage, good climate control, handles great, easy to tell what's going on with the various messages on the screens. Smooth ride, responsive handling, good warning system for when it needs to be filled, low noise. Helpful displays. Nice sound system.

I love this car and would buy another just like it!
So far, I have had no problems with this vehicle. I purchased it used. I love the gas mileage and the way it rides. There is ample space front and rear. It has a very spacious 'trunk' that holds all my groceries with no problems. I purchased it mainly for the gas mileage as I travel 40 minutes to and from work every day. It has no rust even though it sits outside all the time.

Love my car and the gas mileage and the way the back lifts up.
I love my car. I get over 42 miles a gallon. It has good pick up. Lots of features and luxuries. Heated seats, back up mirror. Do not really care for the moon roof but had to get it. The GPS in nice. I had good breaks and handles well. The back door automatic lift is very nice when you are carrying something.

Awesome mileage. Good acceleration for a hybrid.
Like the gas mileage. Easy to drive. Roomy for a small car. Do not like the clearance. I am worried in the winter that I will get stuck in the snow.

How great the fuel economy is on it and it rides well
The biggest complaint on this vehicle is the sync system, it likes to go out every now and then and I have to pull the fuse to get it back working
Matthew P

Amazing gas mileage and comfort!
The gas mileage my C-Max gets is amazing. I've yet to have a single issue with the vehicle outside of routine maintenance. It is a comfortable ride for my 1 hour daily commute.
Paige E
on March 6, 2021
Perfect car for commuting.
Or vehicle is spacious, feels bigger on the inside than it looks on the outside. It is very comfortable, and saves us a ton of money on gas but still has the kick/power of a car that runs solely on gas. All around it is the perfect car for my partner and I.
Jaci S
on March 2, 2021
Exaggerated mileage at time of purchase.
Originally was advertised as getting 47 miles per gallon. Was given 2 rebates on vehicle the first year because the mileage was not even close to that. Currently averaging 39 mph. Drives great and front wheel drive handles well in snow. Supposed to be able to go 10000 miles for oil change but I get one at 4000.
Stephanie D
on February 28, 2021
Cmax: the best car you have never heard of.
It is peppy, gets great gas mileage, is easy to see out of, has ambient lighting, comfy seats and a great sound system. The hatchback works great and with the seats down has more space than some small SUV. I wish ford still made it! They didn't do any advertising for it which is a missed opportunity.
Olance N
on February 13, 2021
Excellent reliable vehicle.
I love how easy my car is to drive, it's good gas mileage, and how roomy it is. It has enough space for everything and can even be towed. I like how inexpensive it was and that my kids like it too. It connects via Bluetooth and has good handling. I can take it anywhere and not have a problem. It is easy to park too. Silent when slow.
Jay A
on February 9, 2021
Love the ford c-max hybrid so much!
Most comfortable best riding car I have ever had. I was devastated to hear ford quit making the c-max. There is enough height to make getting in and out a breeze but still looks and uses gas like a “small car”. The back seat lies flat and we even camp with it.
Bonnie A
on February 5, 2021
Gets great gas mileage for both short and long drives.
Great mileage, pretty color, handles well. Uncomfortable for long trips. Few blind spots. Turn radius could be better. Squirrelly in wet conditions, even with regular tires.
Megan M
on February 2, 2021
Reliable and safe with a great interior.
This vehicle has very reliable handling and responsive breaks. The seats are also very comfortable seats, and there are seat heaters for driver and passenger. I love the additional features like Bluetooth, GPS navigation, reverse camera. This vehicle also gets great mileage.
Allison D
on February 2, 2021
Overall a pretty good car.
Although the car looks small, there is lots of room inside 2 carseats in the back and still room for someone else to ride in between. The car also has some get up and go when needed. Gas mileage is great. The handling is amazing. I feel very safe with my 2 kids in this car.

It's a hybrid and small but dont let that fool you
I love that it is a hybrid and i avg over 40 mpg. I love that it still has some get up and go and is not too big
Tum S
on January 26, 2021
All hybrid vehicle should have a plugin feature.
Overheating in the summer. But beside that I love it, it's like driving a mini crossover SUV. I love that the windshield is wide and tall because I use a lot of mounts for my GPS, my phone, tire pressure monitor. The car is quiet. I love that I am able to change into different mode, it feels like 3 cars in one because I can drive in gas only, ev and standard hybrid mode. I wish I get more range on my ev alone. Currently on a full charge I get roughly 15 miles on ev. Which isn't practical as a commuter living in a townhouse because I rely on charging stations. And with J1772 SAE there's not that much station here.
Tanya D
on January 21, 2021
The c-max hybrid is do good on gas and it looks like a tiny tiny car but inside it is so roomy.
I like the quietness of the engine. I like the roominess I don't like not having a regular key I like the trunk opening feature
Liz W

Our Ford c max had been the best car for our little family.
This car has been so great for our family. It was the first one we had with Bluetooth capabilities and it had never failed us when driving. The colorful ambient night lighting if s fun tool that we change with the holidays or seasons. We also really enjoy watching our eco tool on the dashboard so we know when we are in eco mode
Mary C
on January 18, 2021
Great hybrid, only a couple drawbacks
Great gas mileage, usually about 45-50 mpg. Very comfortable to drive. Surprisingly peppy and easy to handle. Only things I'm not fond of: Cargo space is the-tiny and the entertainment interface is cumbersome and confusing. Overall happy I bought this car.
Alan B
on January 12, 2021
The little c-max that could.
The Ford c-max is a reliable car, but the engine has issues with extreme temperatures and cannot handle high speeds over mountain passes. The inside of the car is surprisingly spacious and can carry a fair bit of cargo for its size. For Optimal performance, in-town driving and mild changes in elevation are both acceptable for this vehicle.
Roberta W
on January 11, 2021
It is gutsy, great handling and can use fast freeway lane.
I get great gas mileage in the city and on the road. Approximately 35 mi/gal in city and 38-40 mi on the road. I love the electric motor part of the car and it has helped me drive more safely when I watch how much I save when the engine regenerates. It is extremely comfortable and easy to handle. We have done road trips and it is a great ride. It accelerates extremely well and is very quick to accelerate. I fill my tank about once every 2 weeks or more depending on where I go and how frequently. But I do not think about that if I need to use my car. It has been very reliable and maintenance has not been an issue. I will definitely buy another cmax. It has sufficient room and I love the hatchback for all of my shopping and traveling to and from school. Great reliable car. Also qualifies as for a sticker for the fast lane!
Samantha R
on January 9, 2021
The car is spacious my dad is 6’4 fits comfortably in. You save money on gas.
Not a cool looking car. This car is more of an adult car I would say it is smaller and competitive. I do not love how it looks. But it is really good on gas. I only pay like 40 dollars a month. My tires have had problems but I do not think it is from the car.
Emme V
on December 20, 2020
Quite great in gas comfortable reliable.
Haven't had any real issues. A great reliable car that has lasted me for over the past three years. Lots of space and room and great in gas which is one of my favorite things about this car. It feels like a spaceship when you drive it and it is also very quiet you do not even hear it when you start the car.
Tracey W
on December 16, 2020
I like that it is a plug in electric. It is comfortable. Have had battery issues.
That it is a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle that goes up to 20 miles on a charge.
Emily S
on December 9, 2020
Great energy efficient car with slight power issues.
My car has power problems (ie sometimes the windows do not work, radio will not turn on) but I knew that when purchasing. The fact that it was a hybrid within my budget made it worth it. When I put the seats down I can fit almost anything in the trunk. I moved across the country with everything I owned in the car. I like the way the seat adjusts, I feel like I can see the whole road.
Diane P
on November 30, 2020
The reasons I enjoy driving our Ford c-max hybrid car.
Fun to drive, quick response, good on gas hybrid, lots of room, cute looks, enjoy taking it on long trips, comfortable seating with room in the back and it have an awesome stereo system. Downfalls it has an odd blind spot for the driver from the front window and it gets loud when speeding up and passing another car.
Violet N
on November 27, 2020
Perfect semi-eco friendly car.
The ford c-max is the perfect first car and for anyone looking for a semi-eco friendly car. The only problem is that it is not the best car in snow but it still gets you to where you need to be. I love the cars shape and size, it is bigger than it looks!
Derek R
on November 27, 2020
It is extremely reliable and amazing.
My car is reliable to the point I don't want to get a new car. I would really recommend getting the model.
Susan S
on November 24, 2020
Great car: adequate interior; adjustable height and great gas mileage.
The battery will drain if you leave the phone charger plugged in even without it plugged into a cell phone. If it is overnight or 11-12 hours you may not have enough battery to start the car. In addition the car hydroplanes on wet roads. While it has been better when new tires were purchased it still hydroplanes. This is irritating on a long drive between Vancouver, CA and Seattle, WA.
Samantha S

The amount of miles per gallon on this vehicle is GREAT!
I love my car. The gas mileage is great. It is a great car for the price.

Reliable Cute Car with Great Visibility and more Cargo room than you would expect.
I love my car! I love all the windows that allow me to see what is around me. I love the size. I love that it is a hybrid, but wish it had a mpg average closer to a Prius of similar size. I wish it had a tighter turning radius.
Rebecka T
on November 7, 2020
The car has fuel economy...so we can go on long car rides and barely have to stop for fuel
I don't quite like the smallness of the car...there is not a lot of room...and things often break off of the car like the volume buttons
Jess B
on November 7, 2020
Perfect family car, it has an automatic trunk and great with its heated seats.
Haven't had any problems but the turning radius is not as good as I would like. Comfort is great and the heated seats are a nice added feature. I wouldn't have picked a different car I specifically wanted that car when I first saw it. It is great for car seats and families.

Ford c max: spacious and gas-saving, but sensitive breaks.
The ford c max has wonderful gas mileage and is an extremely comfortable and functional car. The backseat is comfortable for passengers and fold all the way down, allowing for excellent storage. I have been able to move apartments using solely this car. The backseat also has good ac control and a normal plug--so you do not need car adapters to charge stuff. As for problems, the breaks are insanely sensitive. Also, it is difficult to get the ac vents to point right at you while driving.
Sara B
on October 22, 2020
Gotta get it! Great investment, easy to drive.
Enjoy the ride! Easy to get in and out of, large enough to be seen on the road, good gas mileage. Like the color, was easy to purchase. Minimal problems since I bought it. Less wear on the engine thanks to the battery. I recommended it to everyone I meet.
Jessica K
on October 4, 2020
A great ford hybrid vehicle for serious consideration.
Since buying my car, it has performed quite well. I have had no major problems with it. For a hybrid, it has great pick-up, which I need since I drive on highways quite a bit. The biggest problem I have experienced with the car has been related to the voice-control system. It has worked off and on for most of the time I have had the car.
Katie G

Ford c max 2013 gets the job done with few issues in.
I like that it goes fast, and is a hybrid. I love the bluetooth radio, it has plenty of cargo space I like the automatic lights I it gets the job done and works good after 8 years. The tire pressure gets messed up in winter and the radio gets jammed but it's an easy fix.
Sandra W
on September 28, 2020
Good gas mileage and comfort.
My car is awesome. Great gas mileage, GPS system, comfortable seats for driving and stylish. I plug it in while I am home and I can go to the store and run errands without using any gas. I like the silver color and the sunroof. The hatchback is great for loading groceries and other items.
Angel Y
on September 25, 2020
My personal experience with my ford c max.
Battery is giving out on it. But I still love it a lot, runs smooth and is very safe. All the seats except for the driver seat are pretty uncomfortable. Love the hatchback and I think the car has lots of room to travel in. I would recommend this car to anybody who asks about it.
Snappy M

My Ford c-max energy vehicle.
Its great on gas because it's also electric, it's fast, no gas fumes, reliable, a little pricey but for an energy vehicle, that's to be expected. Rides very smooth and has great get up and go when needed. Not a real good roomy car but the hatchback is a good feature as the ac seats also fold down.
Evelyn M
on September 4, 2020
It is economical to run and environmentally friendly.
I love the comfy seats, the almost silent ride, the fuel economy, and the bells and whistles like the trunk lid that I can open with a wave of my foot. I dislike the lack of a spare tire and the very small cargo area where I've had eggs and canned goods fall out when I open the hatchback.
john C

The ford c max energi hybrid is a great addition to the all electric leaf that I own.

The ride quality is great!
I like the gas mileage, handling, and overall ride quality. The two issues that I've had are that the rear hatch needed repair and the radio will sometimes not shut off requiring me to remove a fuse to reset it.
Keely H
on August 23, 2020
My car is great - it gets amazing gas mileage and I love it!
My car is great- I love the hybrid because it gets great gas mileage so I have definitely saved money with gas over time. However, it is a low riding car, so there have been instances where I have hit a curb and that has cause damage to the underside of my vehicle. But I do love my car!!
Stephanie L

Plug in hybrid ford c-max 2013.
The car is plastic and everything started cracking and breaking right after I paid it off. It does plug into the wall which is pretty cool! No one wants to work on it because of the electric motor and the parts are high priced. Ford service is unable to fix my window issue and even refunded my money for services...
Annette W
on August 12, 2020
Nice and quiet when on eco. Lower fueling costs.
At the beginning my brand new cmax was in the shop a lot. Several warning lights kept going off for a long time. One of it is still on 4 years later. The original tires are very cheap and wore out uneven very fast. Interior charging outlets never worked. USB ports. Back door handle plastic broke off just by trying open the back hatch. It is electronic so I could not use the back hatch while waiting for the part. Indoor door handle cover fell off. Silver plastic part. It can not be ordered. Looks sad like it is. The mileage was advertised with 47 miles per gallon! I it barely makes 40. Car company admitted to have had the wrong calibration at that time.
Brenda C
on August 5, 2020
Ride, gas mileage and maintenance.
The c-max gets great gas mileage on average 36 mpg. Has had 50 mpg on highway driving. The ride is smooth and quiet. The mechanical repair bills have zero. There does seem to be a problem with the radio, it gets stuck and has to reset itself by turning it off sometimes. We have had to take it to the dealer to reset.
Monna E
on August 2, 2020
My good car that drives us to where I want to be.
I like that it does not give me too much hard time. It is still running up to now. I like it that it is consuming only a little gas for a mile in comparison with other brands. I think for the design it would be better if they can add a variety of colors in the market so they can stand out among the rest. What I do not like about it is that the length or distance whereas I can open or activate the car. I think it would be better if I can activate it even much further.
Susan W
on July 28, 2020
Large enough to be safe on the road.
Love the gas mileage and it is reliable. I love the style and comfort. It has a hatchback which makes it nice for hauling things. Flexible for seating. Nice options..... No complaints.
Kaylee O

Best ford car I have ever had.
It is a very adorable car, great on gas I only have to fill up about once every two to three weeks. Amazing for road trips a little tight in the back but not too bad at all. The touch screen up front comes in handy a lot. Super quiet turning on. Only problem I have had with it is the radio occasionally goes out but overall an amazing car.
Tami O
on July 25, 2020
The Ford C-Max is a Great Gas Saver!
I love my Ford C-Max! It is comfortable, compact, and fantastic on gas. It has more space than it appears to have and great features. The screen is a great siza and the backup camera works great. The only downsides are the turning radius is pretty bad and the visors are a bit small.
Cox C
on July 22, 2020
Ford c-max- highly recommended.
This vehicle rides smoothly. I average 37.9 miles per gallon city miles. Highway miles I can get 40+ miles per gallon. I have had no mechanical issues with the ford c-max thus far. Even though it seems to be small from the outside, this vehicle is very roomy on the inside. The trunk is large, and can accommodate long-term grocery shops that are $400+ at a time. The back seats fold all the way down nicely and allow for large items to be transported. As of today’s gas prices it takes around $30-35 to fill the gas tank up from empty. This vehicle is economical and practical.
Kim N
on July 20, 2020
Great car, wish there was a spare tire.
Great gas mileage was the selling point. The car handles and accelerates better than the Prius imo. Also the leg and head room are great for driving friends and family. The only thing I do not like is that there is no spare tire. The tire mobility kit is fine but when you hit a Chicago pothole, you are getting a catastrophic blow out and not a small leak.
Daniel Wong
on July 15, 2020
Power steering issues
I have really enjoyed my C-Max until now. Seems like there are a lot of complaints across the board with 2013 models where an error comes up and the power steering locks up. My repair costs are approx $2300. Seems like FORD is passing on the repair costs to customers rather than use a better and more reliable part. Someone had issues a week off the lot, I have fortunately made it 7 yrs, which makes it seem like general wear and tear. Sucks that it has to take an accident or death to get them to look into it. Buyer beware.
Katie R
on July 14, 2020
It looks small from the outside, but the inside is surprisingly spacious
We bought our Cmax this summer and we love it! It starts with the push of a button and is quiet, has amazing gas mileage, and comfortable.
Angelina Y

Review on my 2013 ford c-max hybrid.
It is a great car and I really recommend it. It is great on gas. My car is red and a hatchback. It is very spacious as well. The seats are comfortable and not too rough and the air conditioning is really well. You can adjust the air conditioning on the drivers side and the passengers side, which is really convenient. It also has Bluetooth.
Michelle K
on June 23, 2020
Save a lot of money on gas. It's worth all the money.
Not a fan that there is no spare tire, but I do save a whole lot on gas. There is a lot more space in it than it looks like.

Ughhh
The Best about my C-Max is the mileage and interior space!!! The HORRIBLE part is the Microsoft Sync/music is a Piece of c**p it started crackling like there was short the noise was so unbearable to hear driving & a couple weeks later it died no music or sound not even reverse beeps I hate it!!!!!
Sandra L

I like that it is a plug-in hybrid. The interior space is large. I would like better range on the electric motor.
Paul J

Has bugs, but gets excellent gas mileage.
This car has some bugs. Many electronic issues have plagued my ownership of the vehicle. It gets excellent gas mileage however. And the interior is nice and quiet and comfortable. It seems to wear out tires too quickly even with regular rotation although creature comforts are much lower I believe next time I'll buy a Prius.
Hannah M
on May 21, 2020
Super efficient and comfortable to drive at all times.
I only have to fill up with gas once every two weeks. The sound system is powerful, and the ac and heating works fast to change the temperature in the car. It is comfortable for long distance drives as well, especially for someone like me who has back issues. The trunk space is limited, but workable.
Tina W

Fun car to drive, roomier than it looks and super quiet!
I love my car. I like the seats and it is very roomy, roomier than my flex was. It is a zippy fun car to drive. The only issues I have had have been with the fuel line and the battery. Overall we plan on driving the car into the ground because not only is it good on gas mileage but it is also super easy to get in and out.
Shelby C
on April 21, 2020
This is a great car!! Love the gas mileage!
I love my Ford C-Max hybrid. With it being a hybrid I only have to fill the gas tank up once a month with just in town driving, if driving 5 days a week. The ride is very smooth and not bumping at all! Even though it's 6 years old or so, it's in great condition. I love that there's a navigation system, Bluetooth, voice commands, and rear camera. This is a great family starter car. The seats fold down to provide a LOT of space to transport things. I've had 1 question that I keep forgetting to ask, but I don't know if the same coolant can be used for the 2 different cooling components (since it's a hybrid) of this car.
Mariah P

A fun-sized hybrid that easily gets me around New York city.
I have had a lot of issues with the interface not turning off or radio not shutting down and depleting my battery. Also, I wished I could get more energy per mile when using electric. Overall, it is a great vehicle. It is great on miles per gallon and easy to drive.
Faith S
on April 17, 2020
Amazing gas mileage and great size.
A very smooth ride and very comfortable. Amazing gas mileage, so it is great for saving money in that area. The breaks on my specific car are a little touchy but I have adjusted to them and have come to prefer them. The size is also perfect because the car does not really feel too small or to big, a perfect size.
Mary B
on April 8, 2020
Smooth ride for a hybrid. Great on the gas for traveling long distance.
This vehicle is very comfortable and reliable. I like the fact that you do not have to fill-up with gasoline as often. Great when riding on the city streets. Good I leave on the highway. It has power under the hood that I didn't expect and a very smooth ride.
Frank M
on March 27, 2020
The C-Max is a great car that does everything you need.
We like the car because it is fuel efficient, has enough room for our stuff, and is comfortable for the most part. One thing I don't like is center console sticks out too far into the pedal well.
Stephanie M
on March 22, 2020
It is very good on gas mileage.
I love that my Ford c-max is a hybrid and is better for the environment. I love that I can put my windows down before I get in the car to cool it off.
Reeves M
on March 20, 2020
Interior design and quality of leather used.
The one thing I dislike about my new car is the fact the our really big and beautiful sunroof does not open. You can only look through it. The second thing about my car that I dislike, is the fact that it does not come with an aux cord. It comes with bluetooth but that is dangerous and distracting when driving.
Robin S
on March 19, 2020
My car is a comfortable, easy to drive hybrid with great gas mileage.
I like that it is a hybrid vehicle that utilizes the energy produced when I brake. It makes me feel like times I end up in city, stop and go traffic is actually productive and gives me new perspective. It includes a display that "grows" leaves as I drive in more environmentally friendly ways, which can be motivating. It's also roomy - even though it's a 4 door hatchback, it sits up higher and is roomy and comfortable for passengers of all shapes and sizes.
Robin E
on March 18, 2020
Due to the low profile it does not handle well in icy conditions.
My 2013 ford c max is my first hybrid car. I absolutely love it. I get great gas mileage. I gas up every 2 weeks. The interior of the ford c max hybrid is quite spacious and very comfortable. The only complaint I have is the blind spots. There is an inability to easily see traffic when looking out the rear passenger windows.
karl O
on March 5, 2020
Ford c max best hybrid around.
The car does not really have any problems except some slow defrosting of the windshield. The performance is good for a hybrid, it has great storage capability. It also has great miles per gallon, with me averaging around 40 mpg. I would buy another one if the one that I has dies in the next few years.
Lisa H
on February 28, 2020
It is dependable and reduced my gas expenses exponentially.
I like that it is small and compact, stylish, energy efficient, environmentally friendly, and high tech. I dislike how the light body makes it impossible to drive in winter weather.
Debra L

Ford see max hybrid. 2013 version.
That is far I have had zero problems with my car. I am currently up to 42 to 43 mpg. I love the navigation system. It is invaluable when I am looking for new places to go. It is quite comfortable and easy to go on long trips. I have extra tinting on the windows so it stays quiet cool in the heat here in Arizona. I’d like to use those Sirius radio option.
Christie M

As a hybrid it doesn't need charging, it uses regular gas and it's economical to use.
I like that it's a hybrid vehicle and that it gets good mileage. I liked the entertainment system until a week ago when it needed a software update from the dealer. It isn't the most comfortable vehicle from a passenger standpoint.

Ford c max energy is a great car for local activities.
This is a four door plug in hybrid car. It runs for about eighteen miles on it is electric charge before switching over to gas. It is a great car for people who do a lot of short trips around town, like shopping trips, dropping kids off at school and short commutes. The interior is quiet and comfortable. My version has leather seats and a very nice sound system. All of the controls are electronic. The engine is quick and powerful.

It is comfy and compact. Easy to learn and drive. Touch screen is nice.
If I do not charge it for a few days and let it sit there it dies and I have to jump it. The electrical went out a few times and there's a bunch of recalls on it. I have gotten 4 flats in the last year with it. The electric battery only charges up to 14 miles when it should hold way more. If you learn to drive it right you can get really good gas mileage on it. The hatchback trunk is very small because the battery takes up most of the space so it's not flat when you put the seats down in the back.

40 MPG gas Mileage while providing reliable transportation.
Comfortable car to drive. Good gas mileage, around 40 mpg. Like the sync system to connect phone and have many entertainment device choices.

Good gas mileage but could have better efficiency and more storage. Nice and roomy.
I like the gas mileage can be even better, could have better storage. A lot of recalls but all taken care of free.

My review of the 2013 Ford C-max Energy
It's very quiet, you wouldn't even know it was running. It gets great gas mileage, I wish it got more mileage from plugging it in and charging the battery. I was told the charge would get me 21 miles, the truth was it was more like 10-14 miles. It's very comfortable and has a lot more room inside than it looks like. I love the heated seats, it's great when it gets really cold here in TN. I also love the auto start feature, the car starts and it gets either the heat going or the AC.

Plug-in hybrids rule! Long live the c-max. Ford killed you too soon.
I live the high mpg that I achieve. It has been very reliable with regards to engine, transmission, and body. The only problems I have had are with the entertainment system. I have needed two module replacements for the sync 2 system. Otherwise, it is comfortable, quiet, and roomy. Fun to drive.

2013 ford c-max hybrid, 210,000 miles.
Purchased the c-max hybrid for the gas Mileage on my daily commute. Was getting 43 mpg highway for first 125,000 miles. Dealer did an $800 tune up and the mileage has been 35-37 mpg. . Service has been an issue. Oil change and tire rotation were usually good. Main problem has been for indicator lights. Have 210,000 miles on car with 50,000 of that with the check engine light on. Three ford dealers and an independent garage have failed to correct the issue. Overall, it has been dependable to drive.

Small compact car. Feels like your driving an suv.
Saves on gas. The drive and reliability of the car is really smooth and comfortable. There are bells and whistles all over the car and storage areas where you would not think of.

That I love my Saturn SL1. Even though it is from 1996, it works great and I don't plan to get a new one until I have to. Love the fact that I have no car payment.
That you do not have any cars later than 1996. Not everyone gets a new car every year. In fact, I have a 1996 Saturn SL1. You also did not have does not apply or none of the above

It has a lot of space. It is not tight to get in and feel comfortable.
Like fuel efficiency and price.. Dislike entertainment system and computer programming. I like the big wind shield and the maneuverability.

If driving substantially, maintain tires and alignment.
Very reliable car that doesn't require much maintenance. Some interior fittings, non-functional, began to have issues within first year of ownership such as coverings and panels coming loose but not impacted the functioning or safety of the car.

Gas usage, truck size, safety
It's a hybrid but use a lot of gas. It's super soft to drive. Big truck size

Good gas mileage, plenty of space, good design.
Great multipurpose commuting vehicle. Good price for a used hybrid, less expensive than other hybrid models and gets acceptable gas mileage for its year. Battery issues with front 12v but no issues with hybrid battery. Entertainment system is not user friendly but easy to learn over time.

Mileage of 42 mpg and easy parking, but it's hard to see over larger cars and trucks
Love the gas mileage, but the car hates heat and cold. It has a hard time getting started during the summer and winter.

I needed a car to travel 80 miles to work and back the c- max has been perfect!
My c-max has been very reliable, drives well and gets great gas mileage. It is the right size for me. It has a great sound system as well. I am very happy with it! I love the color red and the interior colors that were offered. I haven't had any issues with it.
