Ford Kuga

Ref:A0196
Published: 7 March 2013


The Ford Kuga is a powerful, stylish and comfortable new 4x4 - and the 'smartest' the manufacturer has ever made, crammed with off-road functions and on-demand technology.
 
An Intelligent All-Wheel Drive system adapts to terrain and conditions in an instant, Active City Stop automatically applies the brakes at low speed to prevent a collision and Ford SYNC reads out text messages and gives you hands-free control of your music, calls and much more.

Ford is also the first to introduce an innovative hands-free liftgate to the one of its 4x4s. With your hands full, simply waving your foot under the bumper will open and close the liftgate.
 
Packed full of innovative features, the Kuga takes 4x4 styling and technology to a whole new level. For an extra £1,000, you can jump behind the wheel of the 2.0-litre Ford Kuga and achieve significantly better mileage.
