FORD B-MAX
Cool Design and Flexible Features
The Ford B-MAX is a compact multi-purpose vehicle that hit the market in 2012. It stands out with its clever pillarless design and sliding rear doors, making access incredibly easy for both passengers and loading. Built on the same platform as the Ford Fiesta, the B-MAX delivers a comfortable and controlled driving experience that suits both urban and longer journeys.
Engine Choices and Performance Details
Under the bonnet, the Ford B-MAX offers a range of efficient engines including the award winning 1.0L EcoBoost turbo, the 1.6L Duratec petrol, and 1.5L to 1.6L Duratorq diesel options. With power outputs of up to 125 PS and smooth gear changes from either a 5 speed manual or 6 speed automatic transmission, it provides a balanced mix of performance and efficiency with front wheel drive.
Size, Fuel Efficiency, and Competition
Measuring around 4,068 mm in length and weighing approximately 1,240 kg, the B-MAX is compact yet practical. It achieves excellent fuel economy, with diesel variants exceeding 55 mpg while meeting Euro 5 standards. In the UK market, it rivals vehicles like the Vauxhall Meriva and Renault Captur, standing out thanks to its innovative design and everyday usability.
Custom Upgrades with Performance Exhaust Improvements
This Ford B-MAX Exhaust repair focused on replacing a worn flexi section within the Ford B-MAX Exhaust System. The flexi pipe plays a vital role in maintaining flexibility within the system while ensuring a sealed and efficient flow of exhaust gases. Over time, failure in this component can lead to blowing sounds, reduced efficiency, and noticeable exhaust leaks.
The new flexi section restored the Ford B-MAX Exhaust back to full working condition, resolving leaks and significantly improving gas flow. This repair delivered a quieter and more refined drive, improved engine efficiency, and enhanced the overall reliability of the exhaust system.
