Ford is baking a brand new, 5th generation Mondeo sedan for the Chinese market; a test mule was spotted again recently in Ford’s hometown of Dearborn, Michigan, but this time it was completely camo-free. However, it is highly unlikely that the sedan will be offered in the North American markets.
Ford Mondeo caught testing camo-free in Michigan. Too bad it’s not actually coming to the US. https://t.co/vtNfdy8To2 😔 pic.twitter.com/peWM2SiUJ3

The new Mondeo appears to be the cheaper version of the Lincoln Zephyr we saw recently. As for styling, it looks just like the Evos crossover with a very similar front fascia. In fact, from the front-three-quarter angles, the new Mondeo looks like a squashed version of the Evos. The rear end looks fairly unique and stylish with taillights that give off Mustang vibes.
The current Mondeo in China offers two EcoBoost petrol options: 134 kW (182 metric hp) 1.5L unit and a 152 kW (207 metric hp) 2.0L unit. The new model might offer a more powerful 2.0L unit and maybe electrified options as well in the future.
