Is this the daring 2007 Ford Mondeo?

The U.K.'s Auto Express magazine has a special on the 2007 Ford Mondeo this week. According to the report, the new Mondeo is based heavily on the Iosis concept, which is pictured on the cover of the magazine. "Not only is the Iosis a bold step for Ford, but the production machine will also be a daring addition to the family car class, as it will blend swooping coupé lines with the practicality of a hatchback." The magazine's Joaquim Oliveira got a chance to drive the Iosis -- the first instance we've heard of anyone driving the car. The brief review is available online, but driving images are only available in the print issue.
