Ford has been placing products in Bond movies since Goldfinger ('64 Mustang). The Ford Ka is the automaker's hot new small car in Europe. No, it's not a sports car and isn't meant to be. Like the use of the Ford Mondeo sedan in "Casino Royale", it's a real world vehicle for a relatively realistic 007 movie.

More prominent in Quantum is the Ford Edge, which is branded as a hydrogen vehicle in the movie. The Edges used in the movie weren't actual hydrogen vehicles, but Ford actually does have a fuel cell hybrid electric plug-in research program using the Edge.

I think the main takeaway from the use of "green" vehicles in QoS is two-fold: 1) it's a sign of the times, and 2) it makes plot sense (environmentalism being important to the story).
