Car Moon

Ford's European division has slid the covers off the facelifted 2011 Mondeo ahead of its public premiere at the 2010 Moscow International Automobile Salon at the end of August. All three body styles of the Mondeo [four-door sedan, five-door liftback and estate] receive a subtle redesign, new range-topping turbocharged engines and additional features.

The design refresh up front includes new and slimmer upper grilles combined with a bolder trapezoid lower grille, restyled bonnet profile and new LED daytime running lights. At the back, Ford's designers reworked the tail lights that now employ LED technology while all body styles receive a new rear deck lid treatment.
