FORD CAPRI AWD: 2026 Upgraded To LFP With 17% More Range

The 2026 Ford Capri Electric is a C-segment Coupé-SUV blending retro heritage with modern MEB architecture.

It offers a standout WLTP range of up to 627 km, 400V fast charging, and a 0–100km/h time of 5.3s.

Key highlights include a 14.6-inch adjustable touchscreen, a massive 17-liter center MegaConsole, and 572 liters of rear luggage space. Equipped with advanced driver aids and FordPass connectivity, it positions itself as a practical yet emotive alternative to mainstream electric crossovers.

1. Body Style & Dimensions The 2026 Ford Capri reimagines the classic nameplate as a sleek, all-electric Coupé-SUV (C-segment). Merging retro-modern aesthetics with a sporty silhouette, it measures approximately 4,634mm in length, 1,871mm in width, and 1,626mm in height, providing a more aerodynamic profile than its stablemate, the Ford Explorer.

 

2. Platform, Performance & Range Built on the MEB architecture, the Capri features a 400V system and uses Nickel Manganese Cobalt (NMC) battery chemistry. The Extended Range model offers up to 627 km (389 miles) of WLTP range with an efficiency of roughly 13.3–14.0 kWh/100km. Performance is brisk, with the AWD version hitting 0–100km/h (62mph) in just 5.3 seconds.

 

3. Technical Capabilities The Capri is packed with driver assistance via the “BlueCruise” ready suite. Key features include Automated Lane Change, Intelligent Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop-and-Go, and a Clearview rearview camera. It also features a 360-degree camera system to navigate tight urban spaces effortlessly.

 
 

4. Interior & Storage The cabin boasts premium soft-touch materials and a 14.6-inch movable touchscreen. Storage is a highlight: the “MegaConsole” between seats holds 17 liters, while the rear boot offers a generous 572 liters. Note that there is no front trunk (frunk) provided.

 
 

5. App Functionality The FordPass app allows owners to pre-condition the cabin, track charging status, and utilize “Phone as a Key” technology. It also integrates with the navigation to plan routes based on real-time charger availability.

 

6. Pros & Cons

  • Pros: Exceptional driving range (up to 627km); distinctive retro-sporty styling; massive internal cabin storage.

  • Cons: No front storage (frunk); touch-sensitive steering wheel buttons can be finicky; rear visibility is slightly compromised by the coupé roofline.

7. Overall Summary The 2026 Ford Capri is a stylish, high-efficiency contender in the crowded electric SUV market. While it shares DNA with the VW ID.5, its superior range and nostalgic design language give it a unique edge over rivals like the Polestar 2 and Volvo EC40.
