Ford Kuga Review
Ford is one of the leading automotive companies in the world. And it is not surprisingly so because of its dedication to releasing new automotive vehicles and developing technology for specific purposes and different types of people. This is probably the reason why over the years, their cars have been patronized by people the world over. From a simple family car to a 4x4 vehicle, Ford is a known and trustworthy brand by most buyers; which is why it is not a shock to see the Ford Kuga doing so well in the market.
Ford Kuga is their four-wheel drive vehicle which combines a sporty SUV with a comfortable and safe family car. It is more intended to be driven on tarmac rather than hardcore off-roader, but it is still an excellent car to drive. The popular model of this vehicle is the 2.0 litre with a 6-speed manual gear box. You have the option to go from a two wheel drive to a four wheel drive in ten and a half seconds. If you want to be more fuel efficient then continue driving on two wheel drive. It also emits lesser Carbon Dioxide making it cheaper to tax. On the other hand, if you are not concerned with economizing, you can opt for the 2.5 litre turbo charged engine for more power and precision.
If you are looking for on-road agility and comfort, then Ford Kuga is very hard to ignore. It handles just as well as Focus does and the steering wheel is precise as well as responsive enough to make for an easy body roll. You can easily manoeuvre the car even with the bulk of its body in a tight parking spot. You will also feel the ride is very comfortable with its powerful and supple suspension. Although Kuga would not ordinarily be considered for mountaineering action, it can definitely handle a few bumpy terrains here and there.
You will definitely have no problem with comfort, as it has its own soundproofed cabin that muffles the tyre and engine noise completely. The interiors are fully equipped with comfortable seats that make it perfect for a long drive down the country side or during long road trips. There is more than enough leg room at the front part while the rear part might be a little challenging for the adults.
If safety and security in driving are your main concerns then Kuga can answer to that as well. The vehicle has acquired maximum rating in European crash tests for both adult and child passenger safety. Safety features installed are: airbags, traction control, anti-rollover control, ABS, ESP, and brake assist. It also has its own alarm system.
Many brands have released different types of SUV’s and four-wheel drives. However, the uniqueness and durability of Ford Kuga still makes it part of the top league of four-wheel drives almost anywhere. It is no wonder because Ford has already made its mark in the world that most buyers trust and depend on.
