The Ford Kuga is a family SUV with one trait that it holds above most other cars of its type: fun handling. It’s almost as sharp to drive as a Ford Focus, yet with the practicality and looks of an SUV. That’s what we call having your cake and eating it. It’s a rival for SUVs such as the Nissan Qashqai, Peugeot 3008 and Seat Ateca, but none of those can quite offer the sheer fun that the Kuga can.
We reckon the Kuga looks a little like a Focus that’s let itself go (too much of that cake). The latest Kuga is smarter than previous ones, with a large grille, piercing headlights and curves all over the place. Higher-spec models on larger wheels look more imposing but even lower trims wear their smaller alloys well.
The Kuga’s interior is similarly curvy, with a central touchscreen display prominently placed on the dash. The 8.0-inch screen is easy to use and comes with smartphone connectivity, and the air-con controls are physical buttons, which is good.
