SPIED: Well, Ford Wasn't Kidding About That GLOBAL Product Strategy - The Ford Mondeo Appears Abroad

When Ford announced that it would be going to market with GLOBAL products, they weren't kidding. While each market will likely receive a bit of its own flavor -- in terms of powertrains and other options -- Ford appears to be taking the Fusion overseas to now make a second appearance as the upcoming Mondeo.

In Europe the Mondeo really an iconic product that is the go-to product for middle-class income families.

Needless to say, this is a HUGE product for Ford.

So, I guess it's reassuring to see that Ford didn't stick the domestic regions with a less-than-impressive product while Ford Europe was busy making awesome vehicles we didn't get to touch.

Good on ya, Ford!
