There's very little non-production about this car. More realistic rims and normal seats, and you're looking at the production model. US will only get the sedan and 5-door hatch.

Re: NAIAS 08: Ford Verve Concept

The interior is pretty dang cool but the side profile says "bubble" or "Prius." That's just me though.

You see, Ford doesn't need Jaguar. This car is proof.

That car is freaking ugly,and the interior is missing something I just can't put my finger on it.

Re: NAIAS 08: Ford Verve Concept

I don't think there's much question that it's a far more appealing design than, say, the Taurus or the Focus. A car like this could only help Ford...

I saw this concept already from last years Frankfurt Auto show. Looks good a very nice design from Ford and should do very well in todays market place.

Re: NAIAS 08: Ford Verve Concept

Good for you, Ford.

It's nice to see American companies at least paying lip service to the idea of small and desirable cars.

Even better would be if they'd also start selling large and desirable cars instead of pushing full size pickups to people who don't need them. That'd be real progress.

This is progress. I just hope it arrives before Ford goes broke.

Re: NAIAS 08: Ford Verve Concept

Wow, eye-catching! Very nice, clean exterior design.

The instrument panel has a 'wow' factor for sure, but are the controls easy to comprehend and use?

Nice job Ford.

I like it. Not a fan of the interior's color, but if everything was black or something it'd be awsome.
