The Ford Galaxy Story

The Ford Galaxy has changed quite a bit over the years. It has gone through different versions, called "generations," to become the car it is today.

First Generation (1995-2006)

The very first Ford Galaxy was a special project. Ford worked with another big car company, Volkswagen. This means the first Galaxy was very similar to two other cars: the Volkswagen Sharan and the SEAT Alhambra. They were all built on the same platform.

This first version was updated in 2000. This kind of update is called a "facelift." It means the car got a fresh new look, especially on the outside, but it was still mostly the same car underneath.

Second Generation (2006-2015)

In 2006, the Ford Galaxy got a complete redesign. This time, Ford built the car all by themselves. It was based on a different platform, which is like the car's basic structure. This new Galaxy was more modern and had a fresh design. It was also designed to be more comfortable and safer for families.
