Ford Tourneo Custom

The Ford Tourneo Custom is a practical and polished people‑carrier that turns hauling crew and weekend kit into something surprisingly pleasant, with a composed ride and a cabin built for real life rather than showroom gloss. With clever storage, flexible seating and tech that keeps everyone happy on the road, it’s the sensible choice for families or businesses that want function without sacrificing a bit of style — the van that learnt how to be nice to live with.

The Ford Tourneo Custom is a very pleasant people-carrier. The engine has plenty of punch when accelerating, both from a standstill and at speed. The multimedia system works fine. It's a pity the battery capacity isn't used intelligently. It's also a shame the car is limited to 157 km/h — disappointing that Ford's engineering seems of lesser quality so that this low limiter is necessary. The layout is practical and you can easily change the configuration and remove seats. The front seats are perfect; the other seats have a somewhat short cushion. I have the short version, which is just over 5 metres long. With this short model you can get around town easily. My average consumption is about 1:16.
