The Running Costs of Ford Galaxy The Ford Galaxy is a large multi-purpose vehicle (MProduced by Ford Europe. It was first introduced in 1995, and since then has spanned over three generations. The Ford S-Max is also inspired from the Ford Galaxy.
3 For a car with such a gargantuan interior, fuel economy and CO2 emissions figures for the Galaxy are impressive, although they still can’t match the Citroen Grand C4 Picasso. The least powerful 119bhp 2.0 TDCI model fitted with a manual gearbox is also the cleanest in the range, returning 50.4mpg and 129g/km. However, those are the exact same figures as the 148bhp 2.0 TDCI and 178bhp 2.0 TDCI models, so long as you go with the six-speed manual. Order the six-speed auto ‘box on the 178bhp model for example, and that the figures change to 46.3mpg and 139g/km. The petrol models are only really worth considering if you cover relatively few miles, as even the 158bhp 1.5 EcoBoost model returns 35.3mpg and 149g/km, while the 237bhp 2.0 EcoBoost only manages 27.4mpg and 180g/km. Service intervals are every 12,500 miles and Ford’s enormous network means you’re likely to have a dealership conveniently located wherever you live. Ford says the seven-seat Galaxy is the big, luxurious people carrier to the near-identical S-Max’s sportiness. Don’t be too drawn in by the marketing guff though – there’s not that much between them. Most of the Galaxy’s extra comes by way of its obviously bigger backside. It’s also a bit taller, but not hugely so. It does mean that people with heads can sit in the rearmost two seats, however – and that could make all the difference.
