Jusrt another SUV? GIVE US CARS BACK!!!!
48K for sh1t that looks like all the other sh1t on the roads. Now that is taking the p1ss!
“we have so many fans, we don’t want to disappoint them”. you just did it. it has nothing of the capri. it has nothing, the sportiness, the elegance, the charm of a coupe, nothing. next idea? the Ford GT40 electric 7-seater suv? I’m curious to know the opinion of clarkson, may and hammond.
I'll tell you whey would say: "Rubbish!"
Ruined an absolute masterpiece☹️
And the sad thing is that someone at ford thinks that this will live up to the legacy of the old 72' capri that was even raced in group 5 and it was successfull
I agree but it does look better than the explorer
Who cares??? It´s an amzing SUV with a beautyful name. I like it. I even don´t know what "group 5" was....what kind of music did they play?
@@jugg3r72 yeah its a lame electric suv with a name that it didnt deserved
@@MystikLFT yea it looks better than the electric explorer
Well thats a really low bar @@gergoillik1258
NAILED IT? nailed what? an epitaph? I had a capri when i was a kid, and this yellow suv aint it or a relative. looks more like a polestar than anything else. You should have asked Daggenham to design it instead of a French committee.
makes me a bit sad really
Ford are taking the piss with that thing 😂
"Bringing back the legend"
Where? I don't see it.
To be absolutley blunt, everyone involved in this should be fired and banned from the industry for their shame.
I concur 😁
I like it a lot.
I was looking forward for a brand new capri 3 doors sports coupe, but this doesn't make me happy, you guys ruined another legend with those SUV's, i'm gonna stay with my original 1982 2.8i Capri
If you want to go electric, but still want a coupe, then try the new Honda Prelude. That car has stayed true to the original, unlike the new Capri.
you guys just had to ruin the capri...
Capri fans: I can’t believe Ford would betray us by taking the iconic Capri name and putting it on an EV Crossover
Mustang fans: First time?
Can't wait to see the next GT40..SUV
@@richardmorris8245 don’t give them ideas
They did the same to the Puma. No great surprise to take customers for fools.
@aacmove and the ford cougar (kuga)
they at least still make the mustang as a mustang
Another SUV? 😒
Abysmal. Half the muppets you interviewed can’t even pronounce Capri correctly, let alone design it right. The Capri didn’t need to return in the electric era, try take inspiration from the original and actually design something different and iconic. You haven’t captured the essence of the original at all, you’ve spat it out and trode on it. A “sports car for the family”, it has nothing sporty about it!
So the next SUV will be called Model T ? Ford is making some terrible decisions these days.
NOT a capri ….. not even a coupe …. its just another 4 door bland ev 👎
I was saddened when I saw it... As someone who works with Fords, I'm not happy about it. I would have talked to the designer to think about it better. .I don't see it as a fantasy that it will have a big market! but good luck in the future! I can't applaud the designer..
The problem is the stupid ideas the ones in the designer team, marketing and corporates has, thinking of using a legendary nameplate will bring more customers...the customers of the Capri era won't buy this p.o.s..if it has nothing resembling the one they grew up watching or owned..maybe use a new nameplate..also since it is an ev vehicle it will not be considered a car...just call it Ford anything with a letter or number..that is why the chinese and VW wins..cause they bring a entirely new product..means new nameplates, new model new everything
Whats next you going to bring back the RS200 as new another SUV or go bigger and make it a van?? if you going to keep killing off the names that made you great why not hit hard and bring back the name Escort and make that into the biggest electric SUV no one wanted
You can change the car, but not the customers.
The car you never promised yourself 😂
Calling this the new ford is ridiculous. You want your heads banged together, for using the Capri name.for me it looks like a four wheel drive of some type. You designers just ain't got a clue.
Designed by people who haven't got a bloody clue what a Capri should be. Why is everything a SUV these days. Bland world we live in nowadays.
Sorry but the legend is not back, The legend has been ruined thanks to you all at Ford 👏
Is Ford Europe having an identity crisis, beyond the polestar looks and VW MEB ID5 powertrain vw capacitive switches where is the real capri hiding?can’t just be the yellow colour 😢
I only drank 2 beers and now I see Ford Capri as SUV.
Destroying the past.
Same as the governments are doing, its all reflecting bits bags of poop like this thing
Since when have SUV and Capris ever been used in the same context?... I actually find the design irritating as they were barking up the right tree with some of the design choices but the nature of SUV design makes this thing redundant!.
The fact they stopped Mondeo production for this is ridiculous. I'm literally in their target market as someone with a young family who wants a sporty motor.
What I don't need is an oversized SUV that is more of a hinderance to drive on the tight roads by me than my current hatchback and even if I did want one, every other manufacturer has their own army of these bulbous heaps
Lol" bringing back a legend" - as an SUV. This is marketing people gone crazy: after the Mustang SUV now a Capri SUV, that looks like a copy of Polestar to boot? Very sad ...
copy of polestar 2 ??
This is H O R R I B L E !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND IT IS A POLESTAR 2 with different lamps......
Family car for families that an afford to spend near 50.000€ in a car. I do not know much families like that.
Not a Capri. 😢
1:08 you just did.
4:40 wtf is he even saying. Those seats are exactly the same as id4 and id5
You didn't want to disappoint anyone ? Really ! Was there any customer consultation done as to what they would like to have seen in a new gen version ? Awful monstrosity !!
The original advertising slogan was 'The car you always promised yourself.' May I suggest a new slogan for this version? 'The car you wouldn't be seen dead in.'
Warum nur ein SUV? Warum nicht eine Limosine?
This has got absolutely nothing to do with the Capri.
"Bring back". "Next generation". No. This is a random four door SUV with the name Capri.
Much like Chinese manufacturers buying famous brand names and bringing inferior products with said name, this car is all but a true Capri.
Henry ford will probably cry
ID Capri
Is this a Southpark episode??
Maybe
Look how they massacred my boy
To be honest the Capri wasn't all that, beyond the looks. But at least it had the looks. This thing is just cynical marketing of a lacklustre offering.
Esto no es un Capri : /
Congratulations, you invented the Polestar 2 !!
I like the drawing concepts, but just hated the final product. Looks nothing like what I imagine a new Capri should look like. It has none of it's DNA or characteristics. One of the big selling points of the Capri is it's long nose accentuating it's stance. This new one has a short nose and a SUV stance. Who is Ford trying to kid? We, ex-Ford engineers know the original Capri and it's DNA and it's target customers. Did the current crop of designers even try to find out from some of us? If they did, they failed miserably to transfer that knowledge learned.
"Look how they massarced my boy " 😢
Spot on! Great comment!
Thats is not a car, it's an SUV.
Ford Capri designed by Polestar.
This is not a Capri...the legend is still alive after 50 years!
consider me disspointed.... Copy & Paste SUV guys what were you thinking? could have saved this lovely name and re-invent the electric coupe..... someone should have stopped you talking yourselves up.
Wow polestar should sue
"We took an Explorer, painted it yellow, and slapped a legacy badge on it!"
"bring this sort of spice into the next generation" How the hell can you keep a straight face while saying that into a camera? Is this guy the world poker champion?
Oh dear!
Ford have the best drugs in their design office.
I think the classic light weight RWD with over 100KW is a great idea even if it's an EV.....
The styling is pretty good with the visual aspects from the original model apparent. Bring on the new Capri I hope they can keep it affordable.
My first car was a small Ford coupe.
😎🇦🇺👍
Bringing back the legend the state of that thing makes a mockery of the Capri.
How many crossovers/SUVs does a company need? Lol
Treason of the original. So ugly!
Capri should be a sportcar
“A car that only ford could built”, yes you say it right and there’s a reason why 😂
♥️LOVE YOU FORD CAPRI♥️
You put the Capri name..............................................on that?
my first car was a Ford Capri 2.8 Turbo - it was a Dream... and know - I can't wait... why... the legend is back!!! AWESOME!!! Thank you Ford!
i predicted that this will be controversial on twitter and i was right
Please make a „facelift“ of the Capri 3
U do realised they used same tech as VW. But still an electric capri that just ruins petrolheads for life 😒😒
Forgetting the misuse of the name but what you've created is another bland looking suv style electric car and it certainly does not capture the spirit of the original. You're kidding yourself if you think that
1:08 You did it😢
They should have released this in a Hybrid model in North America. People who are looking to buy a card and are sick of SUV will surely buy this.
The Leyend RETUNS in Hybrid or Mild-Hybrid 48V 4 Cylinder PLEASE!!!!!
My only question ... Does it have NACS. ?
Next up.....the Ford Escort Mexico minivan
the new ford transit cross over 😂
Hässliches SUV mit schönen Namen , mehr ist das nicht . Wird aber erzählt das wäre die Logische Entwicklung wenn sie denn Capri weitergebaut hätten , was ein Schwachsinn der 911 ist auch kein SUV .
Why not a coupe... mustang sell good in us. Why not the same in europe
Ford's Gerald Ratner moment.
You totally missed it! The commentary belongs to another video,surely! The only nailing it you have done is on its coffin!
"Murat Gueler"?! Where the f*ck is the umlaut?
Show some respect for the man's name!
How dare they even try and compare the two. "We got the spirit of that car" seriously, they haven't got a clue !
Surely, this SUV trend has got to stop at some point! Imagine waiting years for a new Capri to end up looking like this 😂😂
Front headlights remind me of porsche tycan 3:07
It may well be a perfectly decent electric vehicle but a Capri mk IV ? Way too many years gone by since the last of the Brooklands 280 to find any comparison , link , DNA to the Capri name whatsoever😢
Polestar 2 rundgelutscht......
Looks like every other SUV out there.
I think it safe to say, Ford have successfully reduced their potential market for this massively, I can’t see any previous Capri owners buying this (they may have done if it had a different name). Most annoying is the VW ID Buzz actually looks like a modern version of a classic, as did the new Scirocco, the mini, the Fiat 500 etc etc. Plus it’s basically a VW anyway.
Cars are now designed by marketeers. Thats the differents, no more personalities, only sale sale sale! They all should watch Pulp Fiction: “Personality goes a long way!”
This is not a ford capri
It looks like a bloody handbag
You were indeed working with the precious nameplate, the Capri, and you have ruined it. Well done.
Yep!Very disappointing.Another SUV like all the rest,yawn.........
Very nice!....why only elettric version?....hybrid version when?....
Uncle Klaus said so.
As a ford fanboy I'm sad, Ford Europe is dead to me. I gave them max 3 years before they go bankrupt.
That ain't no capri. Call it a fusion or a family saloon but don't call it a capri. It's not even close to a capri
R.I.P Mercury
Looks nice but for the price tag I’d rarther go to a company that actually does sports cars still, I mean how many SUVs does Ford actually need to churn out.
"Legend is back more like Legend is Dead "
What's wrong with your marketing department, Ford!
Holly moly this is awful. Sheesh. They used a sporty name again for an SUV, like with the Mustang Mach-E. SUVs should pay twice the taxes just for being hideous, humongous and yet useless. I can't get over how ugly it is, especially the back. Please....burry it or call it differently...don't know "Ug-LEE-V"?
I want one for 30,000.00
Ford you had one job, use the old shape and replace things with modern materials and tech. Give me half of your budget for this and even I could provide a better car that would pass all the tests needed to be on the road. How are you so stupid to completely avoid the capri shape and drive style?
I’m not a hardcore Ford or Capri fan but seriously, no amount of blurb - very little of which sounds sincere anyway- can hide that the Capri detailing is only there to dress up the terribly bloated original design of the VW ID5. Which, it would appear, was the real design brief.
