Ford is going sportier with the new Mondeo by adding the Titanium X Sport versions on the existing range. Titanium X Sport brings with it several changes to the Mondeo, changes like a new 2.2-litre TDCi engine which puts out 35PS more than its 2.0-litre sibling. That accelerates to 62 mph from nothing in 8.4 seconds with a top end of 139 mph. Environment is priority of course so the engine produces only 165 g/km in emissions as well as an average fuel consumption figure of 45.6 mpg. The petrol car stays with its 2.5-litre turbo engine.
Taking care of the looks department are 18-inch alloys, twin chromed exhaust pipes, side skirts, piano black inlays, leather/alcantara seats and red stitching detail. It all may sound a little 1970s Afro but it really works. Titanium X Sport also gets itself an advanced Bluetooth connection, alloy pedals, sports suspension and bi-xenon lights. The in-dash 6-CD Sony changer is a real party-starter. Good thing too because it comes standard with Titanium X Sport.
Pricing for the cars start from £23,355 (5 door) and £26,605 (estate) on the road for United Kingdom.

Such a bad looking car. It looks like a design from 10 years ago already. Judging by the amount on the road it hasn't effected sales though.

Please check my reference? What opinion? I think it looks bad, so does a lot of the motoring press who are saying the new wave of medium sedans (Mazda, Citroen...) are making the Mondeo look aged. I never said it wasn't a success either, I said it hadn't effected sales. Maybe you should 'check your reference'.

Too bad American Form does not make cars like that maybe their cars will sell and compete with Toyota. American Ford Sucks every single model with exeption of Sports cars. I still dont get what stops the Ford in United States to make cars that looks that good.

This Mondeo Titanium X Sport looks almost identical to the pre-production Mondeo used in Casino Royale.

I think compared to the cars in the American market that Ford makes like the Fusion it is beautiful. However compared with the styling of the Mazda6...it looks outdated. Ford has the potential to make something nice like with the Verve concept just don't know what's holding them back.
