Ford Kuga

The easy-to-drive Ford Kuga provides a comfortable ride in its spacious cabin, and it’s no slouch when it comes to travelling off-road either.

Design

The Kuga boasts a stylishly athletic build that hints at its off-road prowess. The vehicle’s elevated ride height not only offers sufficient ground clearance for more rugged terrain, it makes getting in and out of the cabin a straightforward experience. Open one of four doors, and you’ll discover a roomy interior that easily accommodates five adults. The Kuga’s 456-litre boot space should suffice in most instances. However, if you require more capacity, simply drop the rear seats flat to the floor and you’ll have a 1,653-litre cargo volume at your disposal. Moreover, a wide tailgate aperture and flush-to-the-floor load lip make placing and retrieving bulky items as simple as possible.
