About the MONDEO

The Ford Mondeo is a mid-size/large family car (D-segment) that was manufactured and marketed by Ford across five generations of models from 1993 to 2022. As a self-declared world car, the Mondeo was intended to consolidate the European Sierra, the Telstar in Asia and Australia, and the Tempo/Mercury Topaz in North America. The first two generations used the CDW27 platform, the third-generation model used the EUCD platform, the fourth-generation used the CD4 platform, and the fifth-generation used the C2 platform. Ford announced in March 2021 that it would discontinue Mondeo production in Europe...
