Ford Kuga

The Ford Kuga that we leading saw in concept form at last falls Frankfurt Motor exhibit is now ready to destroy showrooms. The Ovals first European crossover is based on the same C1 dais as the Euro Focus and C-Max van, and while we Americans retain accept to make do with the decidedly boxy, snooze-inducing shape of the break free or out and Mariner, Europeans get kinetic styling applied to their soft-roader. Naturally, they also earn a diesel. The front-wheel-drive or all-wheel-drive Kuga is powered by a 136 hp 2. 0L four-cylinder diesel that yields CO2 numbers of 169gkm, which is apparently best-in-class. The 236 lb-ft diesel yields 37. 3mpg and 36. 7mpg (both in U. S. gallons) when driving because of two or four wheels, respectively. Hopefully, the next-generation Escape option follow Fords new global commodity development path and end up more like the Kuga. It sure would make for a good competitor to the now-Opelized Saturn VUE. Early reports of a Kuga half-breed remain unconfirmed.
