Remember how the Blue Oval took its sweet time introducing the current generation of the Mondeo to Europe while its American cousin, the Fusion, was already happily minding its business on U.S. roads? Well, the tables have turned, because the latter was discontinued after the 2020 model year, while the Old Continent’s Mondeo remains on sale.
For the time being, because the global version of the sedan is also getting ready for retirement (along with a host of European vans such as the S-Max and Galaxy). In its place, the company is preparing to reveal a different vehicle, rumored to be called Evos.
It will be a crossover of some sorts, although by the looks of the spy shots and leaks, it can also be described as a cross between a station wagon and an SUV.
Several digital artists have already attempted to give us a possible rendition of the upcoming Mondeo/Fusion Evos, and the latest – coming from Spanish magazine motor.es – has evolved the looks based on the latest intel to give us a fresh take on the upcoming Evos compared to the one shared a few weeks ago by Russia’s Kolesa.
This time around, it’s probably a lot closer to the truth, though some details could still change before the official reveal, which is allegedly taking place later this year for a dealership arrival as a 2022 model year. Of course, seeing the Evos from all angles – both in a Chinese leak and recent spy shots – is always helpful.
As such, we can judge the new digital interpretation as mostly taking cues from the newly minted 2021 North American Utility of the Year, the Mustang Mach-E. The Evos is going to be larger, of course, just to make sure it doesn’t snatch any of the EV audience.
Still, the sleek coupe-SUV influences are there, even though Ford is probably targeting the Mondeo/Fusion Evos more towards a family audience that a station wagon or a van would have otherwise snatched had times been different.
Right now, crossovers – especially sleek-looking ones – are all the rage, and Ford is eager to oblige. Worth mentioning are the large grille and slim headlights, akin to the ones promoted by the leak, while the glasshouse is getting restrictive towards the rear to create a sensation of sportiness.
No images of the rear or the interior have been shared, but anyone can make an educated guess based on the recently captured spy shots we have also included in the gallery.
