The Ford Galaxy and S-Max have been discontinued in the Netherlands since 2018, but elsewhere in Europe the spatial duo was allowed to continue for a few more years. In fact, both the Galaxy and S-Max underwent a subtle facelift in 2019 and a hybrid powertrain even appeared on the delivery list for both MPVs. Everything comes to an end. Ford puts an end to the production of the S-Max and Galaxy, with major consequences for part of the staff. The Ford Galaxy and S-Max rolled off the production line in Valencia, Spain, and 1,100 people will lose their jobs there as a result of the production stop, Automotive News reports. The factory – where Ford also builds the Kuga – already saw the Mondeo disappear from its production portfolio in 2022. Ford is busy changing its range. Not only the S-Max and the Galaxy clear the field. For example, in 2025, Ford will end production of the Focus in Saarlouis, Germany, where the Fiesta does not seem to have a direct successor. Ford will soon launch the first of two electric models on Volkswagen’s MEB platform, but that model will not be born in Valencia either. This as yet officially nameless newcomer will soon be produced in Cologne. Ford in Spain will eventually build electric cars on a self-developed platform.
