This is almost as entertaining as the EV evangelist that was banned. Can't you please de-ban him? It would be fascinating to hear what he has to say about the EV retrenchment.
I can change the cabin filter in a cd3 fusion in 90 seconds with no tools. Cd4 fusion takes a screwdriver and 15 minutes.
cd4 had to be beefed up to support ecoboost 2.7 and 3.0 power and it supported plug in hybrids. Build quality suffered a lot starting with the headlights before cd4 fusion even launched. They were shipping cars to flat rock to fix them then shipping them back to hermosillo. Hermosillo went from #1 in quality to nowhere near that overnight. And it wasn't the workers.
C2 was built to only support I4s. As such it has more in common with C1 than CD4.
I agree,
Gen 2 2011-2018 ” One-Ford”
Had 26 nameplates, 22 were Ford, including five from D3 and D4 (I should have added to the original post)
Gen 3 2018-present
Has 12 Nameplates
With the discontinuation of the Focus by 2026, Ford will have 11 vehicles. Only 4 Vehicles are being sold in NA, and only two are being built here.
Compared to 2014, when 15 Vehicles were sold in NA, and 15 were being built in NA.
As the owner of a cd3 and cd4 fusion and a cd3 and cd4 edge and nautilus I disagree. Cd4 had far more issues and was a much more complex vehicle in addition to being overweight. C2 is far superior to both.
