With the recent news that Ford are ditching their Fiesta, Focus, Mondeo and S-Max models is this corporate suicide or very shrewd business?
The Mondeo is kind of understandable as these size of saloon cars in a non-premium brand tend not to sell too well these days and the S-Max will have been superceded by the more popular SUV market.
What I don't understand so much is the scrapping of the Fiesta and the Focus, two of the best selling cars in Europe across all manufacturers.
It's the equivalent of Coca Cola announcing it's going to scrap selling Coca Cola and focus on Sprite and Fanta instead. Or McDonalds scrapping the Big Mac to focus on its vegan range. It makes absolutely no sense to me.
Can anyone enlighten me?
