Ford is moving to expand its upscale Vignale trim in Europe?it isn’t offered in the U.S.?from more or less a single offering built around the Mondeo sedan and wagon (sold as the Fusion here), to an entire sub-brand with multiple offerings. Joining the Mondeo Vignale on the automaker’s Geneva auto show stand are Vignale iterations based off of the Edge crossover, S-Max people mover, and the Mondeo five-door hatchback (as distinct from the already revealed wagon), as well as a concept Kuga (Escape) Vignale.

The new Vignale models follow closely in the the original Mondeo Vignale sedan and station wagons’ footsteps, with additional chrome brightwork sprinkled over their bodies, polished aluminum wheels, and hexagonal dark-finished grilles. Inside, the three new Vignales all feature hexagon-quilted Windsor leather seats, Ford’s Sync 3 infotainment system, active noise control digital noise mitigation, and special aluminum trim. The Edge Vignales on display in Geneva wore attractive Ametista Scura (brown) and White Platinum paint colors, while the S-Max also rocked the white paint, as well as Vignale Milano Grigio gray paint. Engine choices for the range include a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder or a turbodiesel four.
