A worthy mention is also the excellent optional head-up display that’s part of an optional Driver Assistance Package, which bundles in a 360-degree camera and a few other active driver assist elements.
Ford hasn’t compromised too heavily for the sake of practicality with Capri
The Coupe SUV no longer needs to be a great compromise, so Ford says, and has rightly proven with Capri. There’s little to no compromise on space in the back or boot compared with a Ford Explorer, the exception being the boot shape.
There’s plenty of space in the second row, as the sloping roofline does little to impede rear-seat headroom. There’s also a good amount of rear-seat foot room thanks to the completely flat floor, and interior storage is also well catered for, with a clever hidden compartment situated behind the screen.
Dimensions and size
At 4,634mm long, a Capri is around 50mm longer than a Volkswagen ID.4 or Volkswagen ID.5, and sits slightly wider and slightly lower to the ground. These dimensions yield lots of interior space, and due to the modern ‘skateboard’ style EV chassis, there’s little intrusion from any mechanical elements.
What you won’t find is any form of under bonnet storage, this is where Ford has placed lots of the electrical components like the battery inverter and cabling.

How practical is the Ford Capri?
Seats & space in the front
Despite being largely the same size inside and out as the equivalent VW ID.4, Ford’s choice to fit a high and wide central console means it feels a touch more snug. For some, this will be more cossetting, and with structured tall storage in the centre console, there’s incidentally more small item storage. Under the main central bins is a further storage space.
Seats & space in the back
The rear bench is wide enough for three adults abreast, but those wanting to fit three child seats across will be pinched for space. There are only two rear Isofix points on the outer seats, and overall, the slightly shallower windows and higher beltline compared to the boxier Explorer give kids a more restricted view out. It’s also worth pointing out that the VW ID.5 can be had with an additional child seat mounting point on the front passenger seat, making it a little more flexible for a family than the Capri.
