ConsumerReports.org® Short Take
Intended primarily for commercial use, this tall van is based on the Focus and was designed by Ford of Europe. It packs an impressive amount of room inside a small footprint. It steers nicely and has a commanding driving position. Although you can get a version with a rear seat, the lack of rear side windows and a noisy Spartan interior limit its appeal as a people hauler.

Pros: Easy to park.
Cons: No leg room, non-existent acceleration, blind spots.
Overall review: I am a Ford person. Was forced to drive this by the bean counters in home office. Cramped interior. Terrible handling at highway speeds in windy conditions. I wouldn't ever think about buying this thing even if I was using someone elses money.
