Comfortable to drive good to have a well looked after car, fuel consumption is decent obviously the car is heavy so that factors in. I took a few hours to get the hang of the controls and sat nav as well as linking phone and will probably need a few more to get total abillity to navigate but I'm very happy with the car also it was very clean in and out the only down fall and not much of one is the wing mirrors are electric but don't fold in electricly which when parking is nice to have in certain areas so they don't get hit when you have to do them manualy sometimes you forget

For a 2013 SUV, the Titanium X trim is well-equipped, especially considering it’s now over a decade old Decent price especially with full service history.

Ford Kuga (2020-present) Pros and Cons
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Enjoyable to drive | The cabin feels a bit low-rent in places |
| Roomy and practical interior | Some rivals have more luggage space |
| Plug-in hybrid will appeal to company car drivers | It's hard to apply the plug-in hybrid's brakes smoothly |
Quick Summary
The Ford Kuga (2020-present) is a practical and engaging family SUV that combines the style and practicality of an SUV with the lower running costs and ease of use of a traditional hatchback. The current generation, refreshed in 2024, finally gives Ford a machine that takes the fight to class leaders. It offers commanding driving position, excellent headroom and legroom, and boot capacity ranging from 412 to 553 litres, expanding to 1,534 litres with rear seats folded. The Kuga delivers direct, well-weighted steering and a supple, well-tuned suspension that provides genuine comfort over bumps whilst maintaining driver engagement on country roads.
Engine options include a turbocharged 1.5-litre EcoBoost petrol, a 2.5-litre hybrid with 177-180bhp, and a plug-in hybrid with 239bhp offering 37.2-42.8 miles of electric-only range. The mid-life refresh removed diesel options entirely. All models feature Ford's latest SYNC 4 infotainment with 5G connectivity, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, whilst safety standards are excellent with a five-star Euro NCAP rating. Pricing starts around £33,000, with the ST-Line representing the sweet spot. The Kuga remains an underdog in a crowded SUV marketplace, yet those who drive one almost certainly enjoy it.
Best for: Families seeking a practical, engaging SUV with good fuel economy, company car drivers interested in the plug-in hybrid, and buyers wanting a well-rounded vehicle that drives better than most rivals.
Not ideal for: Those prioritising premium cabin materials, maximum boot space compared to rivals, or seeking a smooth plug-in hybrid braking experience.

The Verdict
You should buy the Kuga if: You're seeking a practical, engaging family SUV with good fuel economy, interested in the plug-in hybrid for company car benefits, or want a well-rounded vehicle that drives better than most rivals.
Consider alternatives if: You prioritise premium cabin materials, require maximum boot space, or need smooth plug-in hybrid braking performance.
Competitive Position: The Ford Kuga is a solid contender in the crowded SUV marketplace, offering excellent practicality, engaging driving dynamics, and good value. Whilst the Kia Sportage edges ahead on expert rating and the Hyundai Tucson scores higher with users, the Kuga matches them on overall rating and offers superior driving engagement. The Peugeot 3008 lags behind on value and expert rating. The Kuga remains somewhat of an underdog, rarely at the top of wish-lists, yet those who drive one almost certainly enjoy it. Its plug-in hybrid variant is particularly appealing for company car drivers, and the entire range offers impressive practicality and affordability.
