| − | '''Ford S-Max (CD340). 2006–14 (prod. n/a). 5-door MPV. F/F, 1560, 1753, 1997, 2179 cm³ diesel (I4 DOHC), 1596, 1999 cm³ petrol (I4 DOHC), 2261, 2521 cm³ (I5 DOHC).''' Not really a new niche—[[Dodge]] and [[Seat]] have been doing sporting variants of minivans for years—but Ford decided to go for a lower body than the traditional Galaxy when creating the S-Max. If there is such a thing as a minivan coupé, this is probably it—but unlike the defunct [[Renault Avantime]], S-Max proved to be more practical (five doors, individually moveable centre seats) and an inspired drive (CD345 platform shared with the [[Ford Mondeo Mk IV]], and excellent grip for a minivan). Turbo 2·5 develops 220 PS. European Car of the Year for 2006–7. Flexfuel model 2008.

Sporting minivan, related to the Ford Galaxy but with a lower body. Still practical and appealed to the buyer who wanted more style. The original was European Car of the Year for 2006–7. The follow-up, in 2015, ticked the boxes and was competent, but less inspiring overall.
