Yesterday, Ford introduced the 2012 C-Max MPV ahead of its official debut in January. In addition to its stylish European design, the C-Max is also incredibly versatile, offering the benefits of a crossover, a wagon, and a minivan, all rolled into one compact vehicle.
Ford has already shown some of the C-Max’s innovative features, namely its storage solution for the middle seat in the second row. But another feature that Ford is particularly proud of is its hands-free liftgate, which is an industry-first.
“In the new C-MAX, customers no longer need to set their packages down or fumble to locate their keys to open the rear hatch, especially when their hands are full,” said Derrick Kuzak, group vice president, Global Product Development. “The hands-free liftgate allows them to easily and quickly open the cargo area with one simple leg motion.”
The hands-free liftgate will be demonstrated when the vehicle is shown at the 2011 North American International Auto Show. In the meantime, you can see this feature in action via the video below.
