Ford Kuga SUV 2008 - 2012 review - CarBuyer

Ford prefers to describe the Kuga as a 'crossover' rather than an SUV (Sports Utility Vehicle), and this accounts for some of its shortcomings in terms of practicality in the process. The petrol-powered model is fast but thirsty, so the better choice is the rounded, economical performance on offer from the 2.0 TDCi turbodiesel. Of the two trims, Zetec and Titanium, the former has all you need.

Ford has changed a lot. As a Ford Assembly Plant worker I guarantee you that the quality has improved a lot big time on all Ford cars.

My dad had a ford kuga 2008 titanium and had it for 6 years. It truly was an amazing car and when he bought a 2019 model, it’s really improved. Ford kugas are not for racing but they are an amazing family, and just in genral good car!

I think Ford Kuga is one of Ford's best car.Looks really good too.

cutting the top of the door (1:20) is something so trivial yet so brilliant, i wish all automakers noticed

haha, i love how at the end of the reviews, he walks off from the camera as if he will just leave the car there like "next.."

Its not that the US is getting it late, its that they have finally realized the old boxy escape wouldn't make it any longer in the market.

I have a ford kuga, the leg room in the back is fine as well as head room, and the door has enough room for a water bottle xD

Yeah the ford kuga is amazing especially its performance 2.5 turbocharged duratec engine. Really fast and want to be careful not to accelerate too much cause even tapping is powerful so much torque. My mums one is super fast and its really luxurious as well they are just an amazing piece of machine

[NeverAgain]

We're they not slightly larger from 2013 on?

[dragonmastrer]

Mat watson then as compared to now. Makes carwow reviews and drag races. What a blimin legnd

[NicBunnymen]

Just saw the 2013 review of the Kuga....this model is far better than the 2013 model.

"if u follow me to the boot, i'show u another problem"
xD hahaha...

[rockspaz]

I wish they sold these in the US, I like it a lot better than the Escape.

[hammy]

i think its fine how he treats it, not like he damaged it. throwing a bottle isn't going to break a car.... and that was a moderate sized bottle.

[traktorensteff]

The Ford Kuga was engineered and is built in Germany so it's not that bad. I like this car but the Mitsubishi ASX is also a very interesting car.

[CarreraFan]

is this supposed to be the replacement for the Ford escape in the NA market ?

[exploringwithwheels]

Love the look of it and in White they look well cool

[TheForge]

well nice that you can afford a landrover then isn't it. I'd love to buy a Porsche Cayaane but the 2012 Kuga was all I could afford
