This became known after official figures published on the new crossover. Its length is 4439 mm, and height - 1640 mm, and is more than the Nissan Qashqai. All of this suggests that marks a new compact SUV from Ford in the company to completely different cars, namely Volkswagen Tiguan, Toyota RAV4, Suzuki Grand Vitara. These same competitors and will seek price parketnika from Ford.
As always, Ford is very sensitive and is coming to a complete set prices in the domestic market, as well as throughout Europe. Traditionally, a company specially set a great table GLS to the price of a car can vary unimaginable bands. Indeed, it was for this Kuga can be driven with a full and without it, for those who purchase the design. The new system is full of drive Ford - it is interesting to advance because this field “relieved” introduces a new transmission that will cope with market favourites, whose ability is not questioned. Ford was lucky that the same team it was Volvo, converted to a system full of drive through and Haldex coupling proven its viability. Kuga also priyutit a Haldex coupling, which means that the transmission of the Kuga already 4WD can be commended.

Based on the design, direction and positioning models, Kuga definitely be adopted at hurrah. First, the car is built on the base itself almost a successful model of governance in a number of Ford C-MAX. Secondly, a new crossover primeril assume all of the same popular, expensive looking design with “kinetic” podvedennymi lights and predictable lines. Finally, the third, fans Focus, which was decent tire this car is pleased to changing class, while proudly maintaining brand loyalty.

The most strange that over the layout, as well as the style of a saloon head is not broke, also on the basis of plain innards C-MAX. Information screen seemed to be borrowed from the masthead versions Mondeo, which means that many “pages” to be leafing through buttons on the handlebars again maloinformativny and little used in everyday life, but look very fashionable. In doing so, the new Ford Fiesta interior, a serial version of which will also debut at the Geneva motor show in March this year, an order of magnitude more modern.

About Ford Motors is not spreading: as in the past, announced only 2.0 - liter 136 - a strong diesel engine with Common Rail and 6 - speed manual transmission Durashift. Nevertheless, if even only recently that information to local motorists would be entirely useless, it is now the good part of it is looking crossover consumers to diesel engines. Without a doubt, this engine will come and talk to us. It is also clear that Ford softening Kuga and several standard for the Mondeo and the C-MAX petrol engines, such as an engine capacity of 2.0 litres 145 hp

According to the latest data, prices began to deliver in Europe. Cost Kuga already known in Belgium and England, and, judging by their feedback, local fans not too stamps were gladdened. A similar fate awaits us, especially after it became clear that an alternative Qashqai yet to be found. A car worth in the class of 30 to 45 thousand dollars, and so is the competition. According to some assumptions, the price of Kuga will start from $30000, but, knowing the company pricing policy, I can say that in the middle bundling this figure could reach and $35000.
