The original S-Max was a game changer - your only option if you wanted a fun seven-seat MPV. The new model aims to do the same, only better. The S-Max proved a point. It turned up back in 2006, all slicked-back and angry looking, and showed the world that seven-seat MPVs don’t have to be constrained by right angles and tedium. In fact, it showed that a sensible people carrier could be fun, and it’s been our favourite MPV ever since.This all-new model sticks to the same principles. It keeps the 2-3-2 seating layout, but gets a swankier looking dash and touchscreen multimedia system, and a new platform using MacPherson struts up front and independent integral link at the rear.Engines range from a 1.5-litre petrol Ecoboost, with a 2.0-litre turbodiesel in four different power outputs, including a stonking 207bhp bi-turbo version, and for the first time you can now also get four-wheel drive.
