Amko Leenarts, Ford of Europe design director, explains that the look follows an imagined evolution of the Capri since production ended in 1986, inspired by the growing popularity of SUVs.
This beefier Capri follows Ford’s other modern takes on classic nameplates, including the Mustang, which became an electric SUV, and the Maverick, which eventually became a pickup truck.
It will be available in both rear-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive extended-range configurations, as well as a “premium” trim option for each. Ford promises a maximum range of 627 km (about 390 miles) on a single charge for the rear-wheel-drive extended-range model, based on European WLTP estimates.
This is the second model built on Volkswagen’s MEB electric vehicle platform, following the Explorer EV that launched in Europe last year and also has no plans for a U.S. release. The Capri and Explorer have extremely similar specifications that match the Volkswagen EVs they share platforms with (the ID.5 and ID.4, respectively). However, the Capri has a slightly sportier look that could make it a mid-size option in Ford’s lineup alongside the Explorer and Mustang Mach-E.
