When the Ford C-Max arrived, the world of people carriers grew a testicle. Not only is it one of the most value for money packages, it is also a thong in a line of white drawers or in other words, one of the better looking ones. Capitalizing on this billing, Ford has unveiled the 2012 Focus-based C-Max at the Geneva show.For people with space for memories for this kind of stuff, they’ll remember that the car teased it’s face at us at the Frankfurter going by the guise of an Iosis Max concept (the Iosis was a concept on which the new Ford Mondeo is based on).
The C-Max’s duels in the US will mostly be against the Mazda5 and the 2012 Chevy Orlando. In the UK, it will come face to face with the Vauxhall Zafira and the Merc B-class.

Other C-Max features will include semi-automatic parallel parking (as introduced in the Ford Flex/Lincoln MKT) and a blind-spot detection system. Cool, we think.
