Kinetic Design is the name given to a style of automobile design used by Ford Motor Company for many of its passenger vehicles in the late 2000s and early 2010s.
Developed by the design studios of Ford of Europe in Germany and England, it replaced New Edge, and was first shown in 2005 with the SAV concept. Kinetic Design or Kinetic Design elements have featured on the Ford Ka from the 2008 model onwards, the Ford Fiesta from the 2008 model onwards, the Ford Focus from the 2008 model onwards, the Ford C-MAX from the 2007 model onwards, the Ford Kuga, the Ford Mondeo from the 2007 model onwards, the Ford S-MAX and the Ford Galaxy from the 2006 model onwards.
A common feature of Kinetic Design is the large, lower trapeziodal grille; while many of the vehicles' headlights have a 'stretched back' look to them.
