With its agile cornering and surprisingly nippy performance, the Ford Puma will put a bigger smile on your face than any other small SUV. But it’s a car you can buy with your sensible hat on, too, thanks to its low CO2 emissions, excellent real-world fuel economy, a clever boot and attractive monthly PCP costs.
Pros Great fun to drive Remarkable blend of performance and fuel economy Big, clever boot
Cons Rear space is adequate rather than outstanding Visibility could be better VW T-Roc is more comfortable and refined
The all-new Ford Puma SUV has the potential to really shake up the well stocked compact crossover class.
