For the first time, the German Ford Kuga SUV was shown to the public in 2008, after which it was actively supplied to many European countries. But in the domestic market, the sales levels of this crossover were very low, and this was the impetus for the development by American engineers of a new series of Ford Kuga jeeps. Feedback from owners and experts about the second generation of cars said that the novelty could give odds to many other cars of this class. And indeed, after all, the updated car has become almost unrecognizable compared to the previous generation. So, let's look at what the updated Ford Kuga 2013 crossover is.
Reviews on appearance and interior
The design of the novelty has really changed - it has become more respectable and attractive. Among the many updated details, it is worth highlighting the presence of a new embossed hood, a modified grilleradiator, as well as a new design of the headlight unit. Such changes should have a positive impact on future sales ratings for the new Ford Kuga. Owner reviews about the inside also make you pay attention to the crossover. By the way, unlike the appearance, the interior of the car has changed much more - the engineers managed to eliminate almost all the flaws that were present in the first generation of the Ford Kuga car. Owner reviews and various test drives helped the developers decide which parts in the cabin needed to be finalized and improved. As a result, the interior of the novelty has become more comfortable and spacious. Regarding ergonomics, there are no disturbances either. As for finishing materials, here the developers decided not to reduce the cost of the interior, but to replace the finish with a better one.
Specifications
The car will be delivered to the Russian market not with one engine (which is already good), but with three, the latter running on diesel fuel. And opens our line of engines with a 150-horsepower gasoline unit with a displacement of 1600 cubic centimeters. The second motor with the same displacement has a capacity of 182 horsepower.
