Ford Mondeo Estate Hybrid interior

The Mondeo is certainly spacious for five people, but it doesn’t feel particularly special.

Style

The Ford Mondeo Estate’s interior is smart, but not especially stylish. A large central touchscreen takes care of most of the infotainment controls but big, simple buttons for the ventilation system remain. The overall design is far neater and more pleasing on the eye than in the model it replaces, but can’t hold a candle to the likes of the Audi A4’s slick, minimalist interior.

Infotainment

The Ford Mondeo’s touchscreen infotainment system can take a little getting used to thanks to its small icons that can make some tasks a little fiddly. Programming a destination in the sat-nav is a great deal more complicated than it should be if you’re eager to crack on with a long journey ahead of you.
