Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

Ford's previous form in crossovers is a bit spotty. Spoiler alert: this one's a good 'un

Pros
Engine,chassis,
room,clever ideas.
A well-rounded effort

Cons
Ford needs it, but do we?
We'll just take a Focus

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

By: 
whatcar.com

The all-new Ford Puma SUV has the potential to really shake up the well stocked compact crossover class. Some rather drab-looking dashboard and interior materials disappoint, but in other areas it’s punching to be the best car of its type. It’s good to drive, and one of the most practical models in this highly competitive segment, too. We can’t wait to test one in the UK; even with a surfeit of new rivals – and those rather divisive looks – Ford appears to be onto a winner with the Puma.

The new Kuga is safer and roomier than before. Less fun, but a better family car

Pros
Safer,
more affordable,
more spacious and more convenient than before

Cons
Not as fun as it used to be. It's grown up and got some proper trousers...

By: 
topgear.com

The Ford Kuga has recently been facelifted to keep it competitive, but its dashboard still lags behind some rivals.With attractive styling, decent practicality and an impressive safety record, the Kuga is a convincing family SUV. It can't quite match the extremely high all-round standards of some of its latest rivals – the SEAT Ateca in particular – but for the right deal it's worth considering.

PROS
Good value and well equipped
Economical diesel engines
Spacious interior

CONS
Too many buttons inside
Outshone by several rivals
Inferior automatic gearboxes

By: 
carbuyer.co.uk

Amongst other family SUVs, the previous Ford Kuga was a good looking car. Now, though, it’s even more distinctive to look at and its engine choices are bang up to date.

Pros
Good fun to drive for an SUV
Keen price and generous equipment
Plug-in hybrid has a decent electric range

Cons
Alternatives have plusher interiors
Smaller boot than alternatives
Poor tow rating for plug-in hybrid
