Introducing the new all-electric Ford Capri
'The car you always promised yourself' the original Ford Capri was an instant hit when it came along in 1969.
After the final edition of the Capri - the 280, was made in 1986, the Capri story came to a close.
But now, the legend is back. Celebrating the past, whilst reinventing the future, this is the new all-electric Ford Capri.
Ready to inject some soul into the ever-growing world of EVs, the all-new Capri is exactly how the iconic sports coupe would have evolved.
Design and Practicality
Once a sports coupe, the all-new fully-electric Capri is now a coupe-crossover SUV, bursting with cutting-edge style and swagger.
Eye-popping colours include Vivid Yellow and Blue My Mind which help the new profile stand out, which is further helped by its sleek and soulful body which also enhances aerodynamic performance.
Sitting as standard on 19-inch alloy wheels, 20-inch wheels come on the Capri Premium, but both finish off the Capri's wow factor. Distinct head and tailights, and gloss black details help bring the legend back, in a futuristic style.
And, being an SUV, space and practicality is superb, with a massive 572-litre boot, along with a 17-litre MegaConsole beneath the front armrest, as well as My Private Locker secret storage, too.
Interior, Technology, and Safety
Being fully-electric and offering decent performance and economy is one thing, but the new Capri also is brimmed full of tech on the interior, too.
That's because there's a 5.0-inch digital instrument cluster showcasing all the need-to-know information, along with an adjustable 14.6-inch SYNC Move centre infotainment display with voice activation, Connected Navigation and even wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
Safety tech is also just as impressive, as Capri gets a Blind Spot Information System, along with Cross Traffic Alert with Active Braking, front and rear parking sensors, intelligent adaptive cruise control and a rearview camera all as standard too, with optional add-ons like head-up display, Active Park Assist and a 360-degree camera all available, too.
Engines and Performance
There are two power units from launch with the all-new Capri.
Customers will be able to choose between a 284bhp single-motor with rear-wheel drive, that makes use of a 77kWh battery, called Capri. The 0 to 62mph sprint is dealt with in 6.4 seconds, whilst up to 390 miles of range is possible.
Alternatively, Capri Premium is an all-wheel drive version with a 79kWh battery and a pair of electric motors which together produce an enhanced 366bhp. Naturally, it's quicker, due to more power and all-wheel drive, with 0 to 62mph taking 5.3 seconds, whilst economy is still decent, with up to 368 miles possible.
Charging
Charging times will vary depending on chosen set-up, but for example, a 10 to 80 percent charge can take around 26 minutes when using a 185 kW DC fast charger.
