4/5 Carbuyer "The Ford Galaxy is massive, luxurious, and better value than a 4x4. It also gets the mix of driving enjoyment and ride comfort spot-on.”
“Ford has become a master of gauging the suspension in its cars just right, and the Ford Galaxy has an interior that is well insulated from bumps and poor road surfaces.”
4/5 What Car? “The Ford Galaxy is more fun to drive than most large MPVs, yet it's also refined and comfortable. The cabin is roomy and versatile, and all versions are well equipped.”
4/5 Parkers "The Ford Galaxy is a very popular people carrier and it's not hard to see why. Practical, spacious and car-like to drive it comes with a great range of engines including some very economical diesels. All models come with seven independent seats and the rear five easily fold flat to create a huge load space while there are more than 30 stowage compartments on board.”

3/5 AutoExpress "Whichever version of the Galaxy you choose, you'll find confidence-inspiring handling and a composed and well-controlled approach to corners. Compared to softer competitors, this nimble, dynamic attitude reinforces the Ford's car-like feel. Yet while noise levels are all but a match for the class best, the Ford's firmer ride does make it less relaxing."
