How many litres is a Ford C-Max?

There isn’t a single litre value for the Ford C-Max. The figure depends on what you mean by litres—engine displacement or fuel tank capacity—and varies by model year and market. In general, non-hybrid C-Max models use a fuel tank around 55 litres, while a plug-in hybrid variant uses a 2.0-litre gasoline engine paired with an electric motor.


Fuel tank capacity


Most standard Ford C-Max variants share a mid-sized fuel tank, with capacity in the roughly 50–60 litre range depending on market and body variant. The Grand C-Max, which is the longer version, typically follows a similar range but can skew toward the higher end to accommodate longer drives.



  • Typical non-hybrid C-Max tank: about 55 litres

  • Grand C-Max tank: around 60 litres

  • Diesel variants may show slight variation within the same general range


For exact figures, check the specific model year and market documentation, as tank capacity can vary slightly by trim and engineering updates.


Engine displacement (litres)


The C-Max was offered with multiple engine sizes over its production life, so there isn’t a single displacement value that applies to all versions. Here are the common ranges you might encounter.



  • Petrol engines commonly include 1.0 L EcoBoost and 1.6 L Duratec

  • Diesel engines commonly include 1.6 L TDCi (with variations depending on market and year)

  • Plug-in hybrid variant (C-Max Energi) uses a 2.0 L gasoline engine paired with electric motors


In short, engine sizes for the Ford C-Max typically span from 1.0 L to 2.0 L, with the 2.0 L figure appearing only in the Energi plug-in hybrid setup.


Summary


The Ford C-Max does not have a single litres figure. If you mean fuel capacity, expect about 55 litres for standard models and around 60 litres for the Grand C-Max. If you mean engine capacity, the range runs from 1.0 to 2.0 litres, with the 2.0 L only in the plug-in hybrid C-Max Energi variant. Always verify the exact specification for your year and market to get the precise litres value.
