Overview

The Ford Galaxy is a seven-seater car produced by Ford of Europe from June 1995 to April 2023. Considered in the motor industry to be a large multi-purpose vehicle (MPV), it was the first Ford-brand MPV produced and marketed outside of North America, currently in its third generation. Sharing its platform architecture with the Ford Mondeo, the Galaxy was developed alongside the Ford S-Max; the model line is slotted between the Connect and Custom variants of the Ford Tourneo/Transit model family.

Aftermarket wheel sizes — read per position:

Position	Width	Offset
Front	6.5J–9.5J	ET35–ET55

Go wider and the offset has to rise with it, about 8 to 10 ET per extra 1J, or the wheel pokes past the arch. The fit-check settles the exact offset and any spacer.

History & notable variants

The first generation (V191) was designed as a joint venture product between Ford and Volkswagen Group. Produced at AutoEuropa in Portugal, it used predominantly VW mechanicals but had a mix of both Ford and VW components inside. The MkI Galaxy received a facelift in 2000 with new exterior styling including New Edge design elements and an updated dashboard. In the UK, despite being rated as the least satisfying car by Top Gear in 1999, it was also the best-selling MPV that year.
