Ford Kuga overview
Editorial context for design, cabin, performance, practicality, and buyer notes.
Design
The 2024 Kuga features a revised front end highlighted by a new grille that prominently displays the Ford badge, paired with an eye-catching LED light bar spanning the full width of the front fascia. The rear design has also been updated with redesigned LED taillights and a modernized bumper. The exterior aesthetic varies significantly by trim level, with the ST-Line adding sporty accents and the Active version introducing rugged, outdoors-oriented styling elements.
Interior
Inside, the Kuga is equipped with the Ford SYNC 4 infotainment system, centered around a 13.2-inch touchscreen display. The system features 5G connectivity, cloud-based navigation, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and built-in Alexa voice control. The cabin prioritizes flexibility with sliding second-row seats that can expand cargo capacity by up to 140 liters or maximize rear passenger legroom. Available seating materials include fabric, Alcantara, or leather, with optional power-adjustable comfort seats offering memory settings and a massage function.
Performance
Buyers can choose from gasoline, full hybrid (FHEV), and plug-in hybrid (PHEV) powertrains. The base engine is a 1.5-liter EcoBoost turbocharged three-cylinder producing 150 horsepower, paired with a six-speed manual transmission. The 2.5-liter FHEV delivers 180 horsepower and is available with front- or all-wheel drive via a continuously variable transmission (CVT). The top-tier 2.5-liter PHEV generates 243 horsepower, accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 7.3 seconds, and provides an electric-only driving range of up to 69 kilometers.
Practicality
As a compact SUV, the Kuga is designed with everyday utility in mind. The standard trunk volume measures 412 liters, which can be easily expanded by adjusting the sliding rear seats. The PHEV model notably increases its towing capacity to 2,100 kg, making it a capable choice for hauling trailers. A specific trailer towing navigation mode is available through the infotainment system to help drivers find suitable routes while avoiding low bridges or narrow roads.
Safety and tech
The Kuga comes equipped with a suite of advanced driver assistance systems, including a next-generation adaptive cruise control that automatically adjusts speed for curves and intersections. A 360-degree camera system is available to assist with parking and hitching a trailer. Full LED headlights are standard, while optional Dynamic Pixel LED headlights use navigation data and a windshield camera to proactively adjust the light beam for upcoming corners, pedestrians, and cyclists.
Buyer notes
When comparing trims, buyers should note the distinct visual and equipment differences between the Titanium, ST-Line, Active, and Vignale models. The choice of powertrain heavily influences the vehicle's character, with the plug-in hybrid offering significant performance advantages and higher towing capacity. The Active trim is worth considering for those who frequently encounter rougher roads or prefer a more rugged appearance.
