Very good showroom appeal.

I can't think of any current Fords that have really nice interiors in terms of craftmanship. The design is good, in the case of Territory, very good, but let down by cheapened execution. Ugly grains, hard shiny plastics and large inconsistent panel fit/gaps.

A real pity, because people won't understand great driving dynamics if they are put of by the car looking and feeling cheap.

Fiesta's interior is fairly competitive craftsmanship wise. Some lousy materials there though.

It's conservative smart. For the target market, just what they need to look respectable in the carpark.
