First look: the Ford Capri is back, and now it's an electric SUV

The Ford Capri is back, and this time is an electric SUV. It's one of the most famous Ford names, but how will purists feel about it now being used for a coupe SUV?

I've seen it all now a Capri SUV. aaaah!! Thanks for the review by the way.
My uncle had a mk3 midnight blue

I dig it. It's a pretty bold style for Ford, I kinda feel their design language lately is a bit samey, but I really like this. It has echos of other Fords and is distinctly a Ford while actually looking new.

Fine looking suv.
There are other Old Ford names they could have used, but I like all the capri nods. The rear window and seat material bring back strong memories.

[@CompletecarIe]

The seat material is quiet retro, but you're right; Ford could have used a lot of other names.

[@owenmcdonald5922]

The name is wrong. If Ford had to reuse an old name, they should have gone with Sierra or Mondeo. Capri is a 2dr coupe.

[@ParaicCullen]

Not gonna lie, I'm not mad about it. Namesake aside, its a lovely looking car. Im sure all the nuisance electronic "aids" will be the real problem though

[@CompletecarIe]

They're an issue in all new cars now it seems.

Was this redesigned for Noddy and big ears at toy town. I could us this for an ice cream van on sea side beaches.

LOL

[@davelawrence594]

No no no this shouldn't be called the Capri nothing else to say especially as its an EV!!!🙄😬

[@SparkyWright]

Polestar 2 from the side

[@CompletecarIe]

They are VERY similar designs

[@CptSpears007]

It’s not really different enough compared to the Mach E

[@donalshanaghy6381]

I must say I do not like it. The fact that it is electric does not help, as there are many drawbacks with it, such as limited range, inadequate charging infrastructure for EVs etc. This car may suit some people, but it does not warrant the name "Capri".
