Ford B-Max with its 1.0 Ecoboost engine is the ideal car for city driving, thanks to its particularly low fuel consumption. The 3-cylinder engine developed by Ford makes it possible to achieve the performance of a 1.6 petrol engine and at the same time the consumption of a diesel one: the value of this technology has been recognized for the third year in a row – a record – by a jury as Engine of the Year 2014, which has also assigned the recognition reserved for engines with less than a cubic liter.

The accessories that are also available include the Active City Stop, which automatically brakes thus reducing the consequences of rear-end collisions with a speed of up to 30 km / h and the Sync with recognition of voice commands to control the audio system and the devices connected via Bluetooth and USB. These make driving more fun and safer, allowing the driver to be more on control of his vehicle without getting too distracted.
