Ford Kuga in Chesham Buckinghamshire

Family adventures are all about fun, but we all know getting to our destination can be a slog. The Ford Kuga breaks the mould with its dynamic drive and class-leading technologies. A powerful plug-in hybrid or self-charging hybrid are available, or alternatively, you can have an EcoBoost petrol engine. Whichever you choose, the Kuga is designed to move with selectable drive modes and a suite of assistance systems that make life that little bit easier.

Design

Fluid lines, leather-trimmed seats, uncluttered styling: every Kuga design feature is crafter for comfort. A small panoramic camera on the front of the Kuga relays a split-screen image to your SYNC 3 display so you can see vehicles, cyclists or pedestrians coming from either side.

Drive

Choose from five drive modes, which fine-tune vehicle performance to suit the conditions. Select between: Normal, Sport, Wet/Slippery, Trail, or for maximum efficiency, Eco mode. The drive modes alter acceleration and steering, while also adjusting the traction and stability controls to provide optimum control in any setting.

Practicality

Make easy work of shopping trips and school runs. Or why not throw a couple of bikes in the back and head out to explore? Kuga’s flexible rear seating and up to 1530 litres of storage capacity ensures you’ll always have all the space you’ll need.

Living with it

The advanced 10-speaker, 575-watt setup has been specially fine-tuned for Kuga by specialist B&O sound engineers, so you can experience your music the way the artist intended.

FORD KUGA PLUG-IN & MILD HYBRID

The best of both worlds

Wherever the destination, the Kuga Plug-in Hybrid uses two sources of power to get you there more efficiently. An advanced electric powertrain lets you make shorter trips of up to 35miles on zero emissions and can recharge anywhere you have access to mains power. For longer journeys, the conventional combustion engine ensures you can go as far as you need to, using powersplit technology to help recharge the Hybrid battery as you drive.

A seamless blend of petrol and electric power

Kuga’s advanced Plug-in Hybrid (PHEV) technology combines a battery-powered electric motor with a 2.5-litre Duratec petrol engine. The hybrid battery can be recharged at home or public charging stations. Energy recaptured while braking also helps charge the battery as you drive. Fully charged, the Kuga PHEV can drive up to 35miles†† on electric power alone, and a total hybrid driving range of up to 465miles.

Extra support for your engine

The Kuga’s EcoBlue Hybrid uses a mild hybrid system that includes an electric motor with a self-charging 48-volt battery. Regenerative braking recaptures energy usually wasted when you apply the brakes. The hybrid SUV uses that energy to assist the 2.0-litre diesel engine, reducing emissions and improving fuel economy.

Self-charging efficiency

The self-charging Kuga Hybrid combines a highly efficient 2.5-litre Duratec engine with a battery-powered electric motor and optional AWD. As with the EcoBlue Hybrid, the system, recaptures energy usually lost while decelerating. But the larger battery can store more power to further improve fuel economy and even drive short distances on electric power alone.
