Ford has decided to launch its new Mondeo (Fusion) in Europe with a high-end, fully-loaded trim level called the Vignale (pronounced: Vin-ya-lay). But before they go ahead with the plan, they want to gauge the feedback for such a model. So they will bring out the Ford Mondeo Vignale Concept first.

The concept car features, in both four-door saloon and estate body styles, may exclusive exterior and interior appointments. They include, on the outside, items like 20in Vignale alloy wheels with in-depth detailing and high-quality finish, “Vignale” badging, chrome door handles and mirror caps, mesh grille, unique front bumper and fog lamp design, and exclusive “Nocciola” dark brown coachwork.

Inside the cabin the Ford Mondeo Vignale is distinguished over standard models with quilted trim, chrome lower mouldings, leather armrests, and exclusive seating with “Vignale” detailing and high-quality, soft-touch leather that extends to the steering wheel, instrument panel, centre console, door top-rolls and centre arm-rest, as well as embossed scuff plates and luxury floor-mats. Then there is the Ford SYNC with MyFord Touch in-car connectivity system will enable integration of smartphones and deliver wi-fi capability.

Ford Mondeo Vignale will be launched in early 2015. Other Ford models will also be getting the Vignale treatment later on. There is more to this package than just new trims, as it comes with exclusive services that include high-end air travel, dedicated check-in and security and clubhouse access, bank and credit services, concierge services and partner brands such as hotel chains, restaurants and entertainment venues. All this for a Ford family car!
