Ford Galaxy (third generation)

The third generation Ford Galaxy is a minivan made by Ford from 2015 to 2023. It was revealed at the 2014 Paris Motor Show, the all-new Galaxy went on sale in mid-2015.

The Galaxy is available with the same range of engines as the S-Max, one diesel and two petrol options. The petrol 1.5 SCTi Ecoboost has 160 hp, and the larger 2.0 SCTi has 240 hp, but only have an automatic transmission. At launch, Ford expected only two percent of United Kingdom sales to be petrol models.The 2.0 TDCi 150 HP and 180 HP versions come with either a six-speed manual transmission or the automatic transmission – the 180 hp version can also feature all-wheel drive]. The most expensive twin-Turbo 2.0 210 hp comes with the automatic transmission only, and can accelerate from 0 to 60 in under nine seconds.

The trim levels are similar to the ones in the S-Max, Mondeo and Edge, including Zetec, Titanium and Titanium X.

Ford updated the Galaxy for 2020. It received a new front grille and bumpers with a similar design as the Mondeo, Focus, Fiesta, Puma and Kuga.

In January 2022, Ford announced plans to discontinue the Galaxy after 27 years of production, stopping accepting orders for the minivan in favour of realisation of existing ones. Afterwards the cars will be axed from the European lineup without direct successor.
