Ford Galaxy (2015-2023) Pros and Cons

Pros	Cons
Rewarding to drive and comfortable to travel in	Not quite as sharp to drive as a Ford S-Max
Plenty of space in all three rows of seats	Powerful petrol models are thirsty
Decent boot, even when all seven seats are in use	Lacks sliding rear doors

Quick Summary

The Ford Galaxy (2015-2023) is a highly practical and versatile seven-seater MPV, designed for families needing ample space. This third-generation model, launched in 2015, refined its predecessor with a quieter cabin, improved economy, and convenient features like power-folding seats. While it maintains the same wheelbase, it offers a roomy interior with flexible seating, including three individual middle-row seats with Isofix points, making it one of the few cars accommodating three child seats. Its boot space ranges from 300 litres with all seats up to a massive 2,339 litres with seats folded.

Despite being an MPV, the Galaxy is surprisingly rewarding to drive, offering a smooth and comfortable ride that handles rough roads well and maintains a quiet cabin thanks to acoustic glass. Engine options initially included various 2.0-litre TDCi diesels and a 1.5-litre EcoBoost petrol, with later models offering 2.0-litre EcoBlue diesels and, from late 2021, exclusively a 2.5-litre petrol-electric hybrid. Running costs are generally affordable, though the most powerful petrol and bi-turbo diesels can be thirsty. Trim levels originally spanned Zetec, Titanium, and Titanium X, all well-equipped, with the Titanium becoming the sole option later.

Best for: Families needing a highly practical seven-seater, drivers who appreciate a comfortable and refined ride, and those looking for flexible seating with multiple Isofix points.

Not ideal for: Buyers prioritising the sharpest driving dynamics (like an S-Max), those who need sliding rear doors, or those seeking the absolute lowest running costs from the most powerful engine options.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the Galaxy if: You're a family needing a highly practical seven-seater, you appreciate a comfortable and refined ride, or you're looking for flexible seating with multiple Isofix points.

Consider alternatives if: You prioritise the sharpest driving dynamics (like an S-Max), require sliding rear doors, or seek the absolute lowest running costs from the most powerful engine options.

Competitive Position: The Ford Galaxy (2015-2023) stands out in the MPV segment as a highly capable and versatile family car. While it might not offer the sliding doors of some rivals like the Seat Alhambra or Volkswagen Sharan, its rewarding driving experience, comfortable ride, and exceptional practicality with flexible seating make it a strong contender. Its affordable running costs for most models, combined with a well-equipped interior, position it as an excellent choice for families prioritising space, comfort, and a pleasant driving experience over outright sportiness or premium badge appeal.
