Ford hoped to enter the competitive small MPV market in 2012 with the release of the B-MAX, which shares its base with the Fiesta. While it had a similar style to the Fiesta, the body was taller, making it more practical and agile. After selling nearly 300,000 units during its production, Ford didn't make a second-generation model and chose to discontinue the B-MAX in 2017.

Used Ford B-MAX FAQ's
What are the basic dimensions of a Ford B-MAX?
With a wheelbase of 2,489 mm, the B-MAX is not a large car by any means. It has an overall length of 4,077 mm and its width is 1,704 mm. It is taller than you might expect, however, standing at 1,604 mm. This means that the available headroom is good for a car of its class.
How does the B-MAX rate for the safety of passengers?
When Euro NCAP put the B-MAX through its paces in 2012, it awarded the car with a full five stars. The MPV scored particularly well for the safety of adult passengers and fared only a little worse for child occupant safety. Its lowest rating was for the protection of pedestrians in the event of a collision.
What is the size of boot available in a Ford B-MAX?
The sliding doors of the B-MAX mean that access is easy, even when you are in a parking spot that prevents the tailgate from opening. Just drop the seats to access the 318-litre boot at the back. The boot can be raised so it matches the height of the tailgate lip, which also makes loading and unloading from the rear a breeze.
What awards has the B-MAX won?
The B-MAX did not win many awards. However, its use of the then-new Ford 1-litre l3 EcoBoost petrol engine when it first came out garnered a lot of praise. This technology meant the engine won the prestigious 'International Engine of the Year' award in 2012. It has a start and stop function and offers direct fuel injection.
What engine options does a Ford B-MAX come with?
As mentioned, there is a 1-litre EcoBoost petrol-driven engine as well as two Duratec petrol-powered options, a 4-litre and a 6-litre. Diesel versions come in two varieties: A 5-litre Duratorq and a 6-litre Duratorq.
Which insurance groups would a used Ford B-MAX sit in?
An entry-level Ford B-MAX is likely to occupy insurance group 7 in the UK, which means it is affordable for most motorists to insure. Many editions are in groups 8 through to 14 and only the highest car specification trims are as high as group 16. Most Titaniums on the road will be in groups 13 or 14, however.
