Bold new styling. Next‑level connectivity. Intelligent tech. Meet the new Ford Kuga®. Loaded with doing power. Discover versatility in the Kuga line-up, featuring the self-charging Hybrid or EcoBoost engine. Tailor your experience with choices like Titanium, ST-Line, or the innovative Active series.
The updated model is available in 4 powertrains, 3 which we have had on the previous model year with the introduction of the 2.5L Duratec FHEV 183PS CVT Automatic 4WD for all those who are after towing capability.
New Kuga hybrids now deliver an increased towing capacity of up to 2100 Kg*. On-board data and maps calculate tow-friendly routes to get you to the action.
With Green Zone geofencing, Kuga Plug-in Hybrid can give you information on upcoming restrictions and automatically switch to eco mode or electric-only driving whenever you enter ultra-low emission zones
The reimagined interior includes a more streamlined design, flexible rear seats, and up to 536L boot space**. Flexible space. More than enough room.
The new 13.2" SYNC 4 touchscreen provides even more connectivity, with wireless Apple CarPlay & Android Auto 5G Modem, and Over-the-air Updates

[*]The on-board modem will be connected at the time of vehicle delivery. You may choose to opt in/opt out of certain data sharing. The technology will be made available in selected markets in 2019, with the remaining markets following through 2020. FordPass Connect feature usage is complimentary for the first 2 years thereafter a subscription is payable.
[††]Wi-Fi Hotspot (up to 4G) includes complimentary wireless data trial that begins at time of activation and expires at the end of 3 months or when 3GB of data is used, whichever comes first. Afterwards a subscription to Vodafone is required, refer to their website for detail of their data packages. To take advantage of the built-in Wi-Fi hotspot capability, a 2018 Ford vehicle must come with the appropriate hardware, and a data plan is required. Data coverage and service is not available everywhere and terms of your data plan, including applicable message and data rates, may apply.
A Plug-in Hybrid (PHEV) is the best of both worlds, these vehicles have a higher voltage battery, allowing you to drive longer distances on all electric compared to a Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) and a normal combustion engine. The PHEV has two charging options;
1.Charged from an external electricity supply, an added bonus from the traditional hybrid.
2.The use of advanced charging technology, which takes advantage of previously lost energy while braking.
It’s ideal for zero-emission electric driving for 30 miles and the manual switch allows you to conserve battery life for longer journeys.
| Derivative | WLTP Extra High (Motorway) | WLTP Overall (Combined) |
| ST-Line Edition | 28 miles | 39 miles |
| ST-Line X Edition | 28 miles | 37 miles |
| Vignale | 28 miles | 37 miles |
As with Mild Hybrid (mHEV), these vehicles have an internal combustion engine, but they also have a larger battery and more powerful motor. This provides more assistance to the engine and enables the vehicle to drive parts of short journeys at low speeds using the electric motor alone. Along with providing improved MPG and Co2 emissions.
The internal combustion engine is assisted by an electric motor. At low speed, or when stationary, the engine can switch itself off and the 48V starter-generator seamlessly restarts when needed. The separate 48V Li-ion battery is automatically recharged by regenerative braking during coasting and braking. There is no requirement to connect the battery to a power source.
The Kuga has four EV drive modes, giving the drive complete control over the electric driving experience;
The default EV mode. Enables the vehicle to drive electrically for as long as possible. Automatically switches between electric and combustion engine driving, prioritising the use of the electric motor as much as possible, only using the combustion engine when required.
When sufficient charge is available, only the electric motor is used. Automatically uses the combustion engine when needed, ensuring the driver can complete their journey.
Use the combustion engine to save power in the battery for later use. Can be used when the driver knows that their journey will include entering a low/zero emission area, to save their electric-only driving range until needed.
Uses the engine to charge the battery up to 80 percent during driving once the vehicle range has been depleted. This provides additional electric range that can be used later in the journey.
