Interior design
Step inside the S-MAX, and you will instantly notice how the contemporary interior combines versatility and comfort. Whether it’s the precision craftsmanship, colours, stylish trims or contrasting stitching, the effect is elegant, and above all, practical.

Because this is an overview of the Ford S-MAX, some features mentioned below may be standard across the range whilst others may be optional extras or available only on selected models. Please refer to the full Features and specifications for specific details or contact your Ford Dealer. You can also use our configurator tool to build your perfect Ford S-MAX.

Dual Electronic Automatic Temperature Control (DEATC)

What if you feel the cold, but your passengers don’t? You and your front passenger can set the temperature with up to 4° variation between you.

Solar Reflect Windscreen
This windscreen has been specially designed so that it blocks more of the sun’s heat than standard glass. This means the interior cools more efficiently on sunny days, which provides a more comfortable driving environment for you.
Quickclear Heated Windscreen
This features saves you the inconvenience of having to scrape ice from the windscreen - or having to wait until the interior ventilation can heat and clear the windscreen.
7-seat S-MAX
The S-MAX is a special 7-seat model that means you can enjoy all the contemporary style of this exciting car, but with the added flexibility of all that extra space. If you regularly travel with friends or family, and indulge in activities that need bulky equipment, then this model is ideally designed to suit your needs.
Adjustable sports seating
The stylish, sculpted sports seats in the S-MAX are functional too. While your driving position is already raised, the electric seat height control lets you elevate it further. The passenger seats also have a sporty feel and have been carefully designed and positioned to give maximum flexibility, interior space and visibility, for people of all shapes and sizes. Second-row seats also feature an advanced reclining system, to help make even the longest journeys relaxing.

Both the driver and front passenger’s seat can be upgraded to be 8-way power-adjustable for ultimate comfort. The driver’s seat also comes with lumbar support, plus a memory function that remembers up to four seat settings.

Ford Fold Flat System (FFS)
You could be a DIY enthusiast, or your daughter’s mountain bike could need picking up, or maybe you’ve been nominated as roadie for your son’s band. Whatever you and your family need to carry, S-MAX is flexible enough to cope. FFS means each rear seat folds down flush with the floor, plus the second row seats can also slide and tilt. In total, there are an astonishing 32 possible seating combinations.
Individual interior trim
You have four unique full leather seat trims to choose from, as part of the Ford Individual Interior Styling Pack.

Whichever trim you decide on, you’ll find it makes the interior of the Ford S-MAX Individual an attractive blend of style and substance, and you’ll be impressed by the craftsmanship, materials and attention to detail. For example, the exclusive Ebony/Silver coloured leather seat trim is carefully coordinated with the rest of the interior, while touches such as aluminium pedals further emphasise the car’s sportiness. Colour-coded stitching on the seats continues on the gearshift gaiter and door panels and velour floor mats feature a colour-coded surround and reflective piping.

This absolute attention to detail creates a unique ‘made-to-order’ feel for the interior of the S-MAX.
Alcantara leather trim
Alcantara leather trim is available as part of the Titanium X Pack and also as an option.

A Ford Individual full leather trim is only available as part of the optional Individual Styling Pack. Partial leather, leather and Alcantara trims are options also at extra cost.
