Will the Ford Kuga be a winner?


The latest offering from Ford is the Kuga SUV, a small to mid-sized 4×4 off-road vehicle. Created with safety at the heart of design, the Kuga innovates safety features such as extensive use of High Strength Steels (HSS) and Ford’s Intelligent Protection System (restraint and driver aid combination). This lead to Kuga receiving an accolade of Euro NCAP awards placing the car at the top of the table in the small off-road group. The 136 PS Kuga also rates for economy and the environment with an impressive 169 g/km CO2 and the fuel consumption of 44.1mpg (combined mode), putting it ahead of the recently launched Chevrolet Captiva.
