http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2010/08/carphoto38785312.jpg (http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/news/autoexpressnews/255778/this_weeks_mag.html)The cover of the latest issue of Auto Express in the UK features one of the first renderings of the next-generation Ford (http://autoblog.com/make/ford) Mondeo, which as we all know will be basically the same as Ford's future replacement for the Fusion (http://www.autoblog.com/model/Fusion) in the States. If this drawing proves accurate, it looks like the new midsize models will combine a lot of what we see in the 2012 Focus (http://www.autoblog.com/model/focus) at the front end with a greenhouse and rear stance that actually looks more like the current Taurus (http://www.autoblog.com/model/taurus).
The Fusion was Ford's first model to adopt the automaker's now ubiquitous three-bar grille design, but this rendering finally dispenses with that look in favor of something a little more Kinetic (http://www.ford.co.uk/Cars/KineticDesign/mdp=v1204941954768). We don't know if the production model will go this way or perhaps use the modified perforated version adopted by the latest Taurus and Explorer (http://autoblog.com/model/explorer).
The new Mondeo and Fusion will probably debut sometime later in 2011 and come to market early in 2012 as a 2013 model.
