CAR's scooped the new Ford C-Max, coming to a showroom near you in 2010 complete with sliding doors for the first time.

Our new spyshots reveal the sliding doors on next year's C-Max, which will improve practicality for families and parents armed with buggies and carry cots. Sources suggest that the sliding doors will be reserved for a longer wheelbase seven-seater C-Max, leaving the regular car with conventional doors and five seats.

Autumn 2010- a year after its debut at the 2009 Frankfurt motor show in a couple of weeks' time.

It's based on the new Ford Focus architecture, and the Iosis Max concept car provides plenty of clues to the technical spec.

Downsized EcoBoost turbo engines are expected, giving improved performance and emissions, but there will be a wide range of diesel engines too.

Come back to CAR Online later in the week for the full story on the new 2010 Ford C-Max.
