Family-Friendly Ford Automobiles

Over 100 years ago, independent manufacturers took it upon themselves to add wooden bodies to their Model Ts, thus creating the first family-friendly automobile. Ford listened to their driver’s needs and added more seats and cargo space to their vehicles.

Throughout the years, Ford has been at the forefront of building vehicles with space, safety, and comfort, and today, you have several options for your family. Drivers looking for family-friendly Ford vehicles around Oakland and the San Francisco Bay Area will find them at Hilltop Ford.

Roomy & Safe SUVs

Ford set a new standard for family-friendly vehicles with the Ford Explorer, and the automaker continues to build the trend-setting SUV today. The modern Ford Explorer seats 6 or 7 passengers, depending on the interior configuration. The midsize SUV has up to 87.8 cubic feet of cargo space, and all trims come with a power liftgate.

If you need a bit less space, the Ford Escape is a great choice. This compact SUV has seating for five and up to 65.4 cubic feet of cargo space. On the flip side, drivers who need more space can turn to the Ford Expedition. The full-size SUV has seating for up to eight passengers and comes with up to 108.5 cubic feet of cargo area.

All the Ford SUVs come with a suite of safety technology designed to keep families safe during daily errands and epic road trips. Standard features include Forward Collision Warning, Pedestrian Detection, Lane-Departure Warning, Lane-Keep Assist, Stop-and-Go Adaptive Cruise Control, Driver-Attention Monitoring, Vehicle Exit Warning, and more.

Electrify Your Family Vehicle

Drivers looking for an eco-friendly family vehicle enjoy the Ford Mustang Mach-E. While it wears the Mustang moniker, this pony car has four doors, a large rear hatch, and seating for five. It even has a front truck (a frunk) if you need more space for gear and groceries. It’s not just a sporty, family-friendly car; it’s also safe and capable. With all-wheel drive, this EV handles pavement and dirt roads with ease. You’ll definitely be the coolest parent in the drop-off and pickup line at school with the Mustang Mach-E.

Capable & Comfortable Ford Trucks

Ford trucks aren’t just for work and towing. They have plenty of room for families who are looking for a versatile vehicle. The iconic Ford F-150 is available with four doors and seating for five or six - depending on the configuration. The rear beds have plenty of room for strollers, gear, and groceries, and you can protect your gear from the elements by adding an optional hard or soft bed cover.

Ford also offers the F-150 as the F-150 Lightning for drivers who want the convenience of a full-size truck with electric motors.
