Ford may as well have built a double decker bus and called that a Capri 😢
"Hey boss we f@cked up and a random suv we designed sucks big time"
-Boss: "Fast! Stick a famous badge on it from our inventory!"
Sounds like a jealous uneducated person here. Ford is doing the right thing. Sale to Genz and Millennials.. cause tgey want vehicles like this. Why Ford is number 1. Don't have to like it but downing them for being smarter then you is jealously. 😂
@@lincolnls0416🔔 end
Huge opportunity missed here 😢
There is no legend back. It's a random SUV with a popular name written on it.
Badge engineering, A shared platform with a current VW SUV!
Reminds me of what they did here in the USA with the EV called the Mustang Mach E, it is a horrible horrible piece of carp. Nobody is buying them at all.
Car manufacturer's really have no clue what we want
They DO know but do NOT care...."You will own nothing, and be happy"----KlausSchwabWEF
@@horseathalt7308 Or in this case "You will own crappy electric SUV's and you will be happy!"
This car is an embarrassment. Ford are finished.
@@TimSlee1 "You will not be able to afford crappy EVs and you will still be happy". lol
Ford are desperate. They have finally lost the plot. This could be worst marketing move since the Edsel
They are going after nostalgia. The middle aged bloke picking out a new company vehicle.
It's pretty weak.
GM has been so desperate that they are closely to lose to Toyota and Hyundai. GM have 4 door Vettes and SUV Camaro designs. GM is trying to go all 100% EV. Ford is keep V8s and V6s. Ford is also trying to keep Hybrids. Ford is out saling lot of the competition. Came out late with EVs but gaining heavy on Tesla. These younger generations only want EVs and SUVs. So Ford is hitting that mark very well. Not desperate it's called baby Boomers and us GenX will not be around after 20yrs or 30yrs. So you have to market for the Millennials and genz.
@@lincolnls0416 I am in that young demographics, and I don't want an inflated big SUV's that all look the same on paper as well as I don't want some useless EV's that requires hours to charge when I just want something to fill up quick and have days left in the tank, also I'd want more coupé, sports cars, saloons, hatchbacks, estates that are sporty looking but affordable and reliable at the same time, what Ford, GM and Stellantis are doing is the wrong direction no one wants these and those who want them don't want them for the name but to be eco-friendly or don't even bothered buying them, I'd rather go Japanese then anything made in the EU or US tbh
@bradwhite5884 you were raised right then. Mostly that's what younger people want though. Wish we had the 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, and few of the 90s vehicles back.
@@lincolnls0416 Yeah, love all those types of cars, especially from the early 2000's and some in the 2010's, but also love some from the 1930's, 1920's and 1910's, any old cars I'd love because it shows there's love and respect gone into them, the newer ones feels soulless and manufactured (even though they all been manufactured, but I don't mean that kind of manufactured), feels like cars now are made to fill a criteria and aren't reliable and breaks down easily, not last longing like the old ones, the car scrappage scheme was a scam and ruined the new driver market as well as prices for old cars tbh, so yeah
Those iconics where affordable vehicles. Which family can afford a 50K car?
And wants to spend it on a !@#$ty ford car made by VW
Ford has proven to last longer then any other Car maker. If you don't like them just say that. Because calling it shitty just shows your jealous of them.
@@lincolnls0416😅😅 ok kid
@@lincolnls0416 Nah, we ain't jealous, we are saying how it is, Ford may had last long, but the way they are going they won't last for long, Ford only last that long because they had best and competent people working them, now they don't, so nice try with that there
@bradwhite5884 GMs holds the record most broken junk. Dodge is almost tied with GM. Ford is number in sales every year. So they will never go anywhere. Next yes you and people hate Ford's are super jealous. Only jealous people talk the way you do. FACTS MIC DROP.
You may be able to mistake the Death Star for a small moon, but you will never mistake that monstrosity for a Capri!
It’s just a disgrace.
Fair enough come up with new models of car and share VW EV platforms if you must, but calling this a Capri is not just a joke it’s utter sacrilege.
That’s not a Capri….
...it's a pointless lump that's built on a Volkswagen platform and looks like a Polestar.
It’s a Crapi
@@Nanny-Camilla hahahaaa, but it's pathetically sad.
The Capri was a TWO DOOR SPORTS CAR!! Not a Polestar lookalike!
Ford had the chance to revive an iconic coupe for the electric era and got it wrong. When Honda got the same chance with the new Prelude, they got it right.
@@CadanHartleyElliott I'd love to see the Capri as a sports coupé that sits below the Mustang and affordable like the Focus and the Fiesta, don't want the Capri be electric, I'm fine with an petrol, diesel or a hybrid engine, not fully electric tbh, they fumbled like they did with the Puma and ending production on the Fiesta, the Mondeo and soon the Focus, so yeah
Ford need to think hard. Gone wrong way.
They were thinking about how their gl0b@l@ist masters told them to go ALL EV or go out of business. They have their orders from TPTB and are following them to the letter.
Oh please Ford, you're a disgrace. Stop using iconic model names for EVs, you already ruined the Mustang and Puma legacy.
why is everything a suv now
Only the boomers can afford brand new cars
@@Spyker8921 Even boomers are tired of the SUV and crossover carp.
Because the average consumer doesn't care about cars.
If it had a new name I’d judge it as a new car. Call it a Capri and first impression is disappointment. Massive own goal from the marketing department. Terrible choice, Ford.
Just move to Vauxhall, Fiat or Toyota, then.
@@CadanHartleyElliott Or go all Japanese tbh
This is like the Homermobile episode from The Simpsons
Ford: The legend is back.
Me: NO, IT ISN'T!
Legends never die, they just get old and fat.
The only legendary coupe that's actually back for the electric era is the Honda Prelude. I'd rather have that than the so-called Capri.
@@CadanHartleyElliott I think the Prelude will be a hybrid car and not an EV, so I heard
@@bradwhite5884 My mistake. I apologise.
Capri??? 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
It's ridiculous that they named it Capri, it is like they are gaslighting those who remember the REAL Capri.
I loved the good old Capri,
What is this???
Another ghastly-looking fake-exhaust fake-range suv-imitating gutless crossover
Is this not a Ford badged VW? Not nice and definetly not an icon. Shame. No VW is wanted ever.😢
About electric cars, the next electric Puma, the Mach E, and the vans are Ford.
It's a ID4 with Ford styling
@@theowl-et1jj You will have EVs or have nothing, and be happy.....KlausSchwabWEF
Massive fail
Tf is this?
Yet another monstrosity that's been given an iconic name to try and sell it. What a pathetic marketing strategy. A Mustang that is not and never will be one and now a Capri that isn't a Capri in any way whatsoever!
Ford has these default designs ready to go. This car wasn’t inspired in nothing. They do this, cause it’s cheaper to create a story around a default design, than actually paying a team to create a car from scratch.
Ford meeting: We had a huge success with the Bronco. Now let's discuss how to f*ck up a popular brand from the past.
The New Bronco failed as well, it's riddled with issues and quality problems to this day, and the price is so outrageous only a few can buy them, it's a failure.
For Fook
Sake Ford. No
Another VW in disguise. I don't want a Ford like that!
This tall, yellow electric VW is no legend, and certainly, not a Capri.
I will, however, be ordering the new Honda Prelude. Not Capri.
I wish Ford would stop defiling iconic ford's by putting their names on junk like this. We didn't by the original capri because it was called a capri. We bought it because it had character, looked great, and had a choice of engines and was FUN to drive.
At £59k for the AWD version with a couple of grands worth of options, the only thing legendary about this car is its price!
The name isn't the problem, is your mind. Great car, I like it...great job Ford...👏👏
HelloKlausSchwabIsThatYou. 🤑🙄🤫🤨
Back. In the day, my 2nd car was a red 1969 Ford Capri 1600 GT, my 3rd was a White 1970 Ford Capri GT V6 Bathurst beautifully designed cars.
What's going on in the world today, this new interpretation is an abomination 😢
Sadly Honda have just launched the Prelude which is the car the new Capri should have been. A no nonsense sporty coupe that is driver focused and has a internal combustion engine.
This looks horrific. What an embarrassment calling it a capri
Looks nothing like a Capri more like a Crapi
It’s an SUV not a capri
It's nothing like one
Yet another marketing blunder 🤦
Just sell it as it is an EV crossover. Kuga 2.0 would be better.
And I thought the 2022 Blazer was bad.
Totally agree with all previous statements,who the hell are they trying to fool ?
They should have named it Crapi.
That's funny, but also kind of sad it's come to that with cars today.
It's not a Capri, they might as well have called it the "Eric"
Just build a normal Capri with modern running gear,it really isn't hard
TPTB won't let them...Think WEF gave them their orders.
What an absolute disgrace of a vehicle
Prelude is the new capri
I dont know what ford were thinking putting the name Capri on this thing !!!!! Back in 1969 there was capri for everyones budget from the 1300 version right up through the engine range. I wonder what name they have given the paint colour i hope its not daytona yellow!!!!! Whats going to be next an Anglia 105 E, Escort 1300 E or a Cortina 2000 E with the E standing for electric.
1:30 I find it funny how they say the legend is back and then an electric SUV rolls in. A bit ridiculous.
This SUCKS.
Everyone knows it Sucks.
Its an embarrassment to the Iconic Capri name, and has put me off Ford completely.
Im buying Toyota.
The GR86, GR Yaris and Supra are much better cars than the not-so-Capri.
@@CadanHartleyElliott Don't forget the Honda Prelude
This car has nothing to do with the old Capri...😮😮😮...and it's electric...and it looks as a Polestar...😅😅😅...
The Swedes won't be happy about this. I feel a lawsuit coming on!
those guys are well paid. Ridiculous
Well all I can say to Ford is, if this is your idea of bringing back a legend, don't ever do another GT40.
And whatever you do to this retake on a 'legend' please don't add insult to injury by sticking an RS badge on it.
He is talking absolutely bullshit
Polestar 2 anyone?
Saw it in person. Disappointed.
What a disgusting electric mockery of a Ford capri
Nope its a VW ID3. why put the iconic name on a car like this ... would have been better to bring the original capri shape back.. Lost opportunity.
I´m still hoping, they will change the name and bring out a sport coupe.
Ford…. Have you read the comments on here ?
The bug-eyed Scorpio suddenly doesn't look so bad now!
If you bringing the Capri back, bring it as a coupé version of the Focus or Fiesta, or a coupé thats around those price range and sits under the Mustang, this isn't the way to do, and my dad buys Ford's cars tbh
why
You will own EVs or nothing and be happy....KlausSchwabWEF
🤮🤮🤮🤮 U said Capri is back? 🙄🙄
Does anyone else see a yellow rebranded polestar 2 !!!!!
Gutted, they could have done something special. They failed
Legend on VW platform 😃 I liked FORD, but looks like they try to make fast something new and electric, and its sad that they stop producing cars like Mondeo...
The Oval badge is still going strong.....the one with the H in the middle.
Oh, you mean Hyundai.
Or anything with the letter "H" as their badge
@@bradwhite5884 Like Honda.
Car's nice but my man, you need help with naming my guy
Eric what do you think ( I think I’m being paid a lot) so I will say what ever you want 😂
The woke capri. Look at all those vegan eating hipsters 😂. Absolute disappointment from ford
TO BIG!
Looks like a ford transit.
looks just like all the other identikit van like SUVs
Ill stick with my fiesta mk8.5 ST.
Hate it
This is what happens when you have a bunch of yes-men working for your company.
Good Jesus. I thought ford was going stop trying to be second place in elementary
Marketing must be working overtime to try and make this lump look cool! How can they lean so heavily on the real Capri when it's a completely different type of car. Nobody who actually buys one will know anything of the original and nobody who does know the original, won't buy one. At least it's not as ugly as the bile inducing Mustang Mach-E. The legend is back, where I can't see it. 🤦♂️
How is this a capri? It’s an ok car but doesn’t look or feel like a capri, ford you don’t need to relaunch the names of old models just come up with something new that more suites the car. A new capri would be fine but make it be a sporty coupe that actually looks like the old one not just a random car that you call a revival of the capri
Someone should be getting fired for this embarrassment to the brand.
Major mistake
Its unforgettable alright, what a fail, another great nameplate down the drain.... I'm still waiting to see the Legend return.
I had a Capri and it was terrible in every respect. Aside from the quality issues, one had to be a gymnast to get it and out of the thing. Also, I get pretty tired of these corporate “presenters” doing the Steve Jobs imitations. Sad.
CRAP-i
Is this a joke?
Absolutely awful this is not a Capri & your decision too go all EV will destroy the brand
The ford Capri was iconic, this is a bloated travesty and not worthy of the name… poor show Ford
What a waste google 2022 capri reimagined miles better
Absolute disgrace to the Capri name...
The crapri
They got a Polstar2 made it ugly and more expensive....eh ok. good luck with that
Ford fiesta gone. Ford focus now gone.. And they bring this car out that looks noting like the Capri with a 50k price tag..... Big mistake
Getting rid of the Focus, Fusion (US Only), Fiesta, Mondeo and such was a huge mistake tbh, the Capri could of been a cheap sports coupé for everyman, an everyman's Mustang that cannot afford the Mustang and should fit under the Mustang, but nope, we did not, so yeah
This is just as bad as the Mach-e and Eclipse Cross. Two iconic names destroyed by bean counters that think a name alone will sell. We Brits and our German friends know what a real Capri is. Hell, I'd take the Aussie Mazda based Capri over this bland box of another generic SUV.
Polestar 2 ripoff
absolute trash
Very LGBTQ
Indeed looks very woke, and very woke is very dumpy and fat too. lol
Ford chose to go woke , and now they will go broke, the current CEO even said so.
Come on the front is just the explorer!! Call that washing machine Explorer coups not Capri!
