Ford Galaxy (not the old one)...Thoughts...

[the_scotsman]

I've been living in Australia for 6 years now...have gotten used to the cars, and noticed the vehicle trends, what people are buying and what they're not...

One thing I am quite surprised about is the lack of the Ford Galaxy (or another equivalent) in Australia.

If you don't know what it is, see HERE.




Over the time I have been here, it seems clear that people carriers (MPVs or whatever you like to call them) are very popular. The Toraga and Carnival seem to be the leaders. Carnival maybe due to the great price, but the Toraga is no cheap vehicle (when new anyway).

I guess the Territory/Ranger is the closest Ford have to this kind of vehicle.

What are your thoughts on Ford having a vehicle like this in Oz? The European Ford vehicles seem to be becoming more popular over here now, with the Focus, Fiesta and most probably the new Mondeo when it arrives.

Is there demand for another vehicle in this class?
