Ford Kuga review - CarBuyer

[BadRoBi10]

i didnt liked this car because of the interior cuz its kinda old but when he reviewd it at the beginning i liked the car somehow but when i saw its downsides im not pretty sure if i like it xD

[thelastgood1forever]

why don't we get that in america?

[browniej94]

@thelastgood1forever The Ford Kuga is actually being released in America in April 2012 as the third generation Ford Escape!

[davidhalifax]

I find the same issue with the Focus in the rear seats which this Kuga is based on, where Ford has one of the deeper seat cushions to support the thighs, but the result is the lack of foot room behind the front seat. Most cars can fit larger bottles in the door, this could cause some frustrations on long trips.

I've been waiting fo the Kuga to come to North America for years, but now the Kuga faces more compeition and it's just a bit late to the game as the replacement for the Escape.

[pringlescan81]

is this what the new ford escape will look like in the US?

[GIUGIK1]

@pringlescan81 No. This is the old generation. Google 2013 Ford Escape to see the new one.

[TheLocalNut]

Cant fit a big bottle???! Might as well end production now ford!

[Amero1]

I have driven this car and I would have to say its way over priced.. No way on earth I'd pay £20k for such a car . I would knock on BMW's door with this cash in my pocket.

[Mejevoli]

You should find a better "off road" place :/ no offense

[ZooTycoon223]

Glad to see that Ford is using this for their new Escape.

Definitely an improvement over the Escape's boxy designs of the past

somebody talking about a damn sandwich... gets 37 likes

Don't normally get attached to motors cos I change em so often but I've gotta say, I love my Kuga! Best all round motor I've ever had. As for Hyundai...they're Korean and Plasticky. All Hyundai's are. They look like they'd lose out in a collision with a scooter!

[MacGyver920]

Kuga, Kuga, Kuga! I enjoy saying that. Kuga, Kuga, Kuga!

[zander1997100]

@MacGyver920 shut up!

[MacGyver920]

@zander1997100 Okay. Kuga, Kuga, Kuga!

[xRuFFZx]

beer belly :D

[RB1991rox]

"if u follow me to the boot, i'show u another problem"

xD hahaha...

[miledplayer]

kuga on croatian means plague (black death) xD

[nishantsirohi123]

this car seems so closer to chevrolet captiva in every dimension

[neandertalac]

If it could be just 5 inches longer. :D

[ruairi50]

id prefer a skoda yeti

[KPNLFC]

The XC60 is far more better !

[skoshy]

Such a nifty tailgate. What's with the massive A-pillars though? It even has door mounted mirrors. There's no need for that huge of a blindspot in front.

[thinking500]

the belly is growing..

[foxxmufasa]

ford in america needs to jus import their british models!

[MacGyver920]

That's the problem with all SUV's. There's absolutely no space at all inside them.

[MacGyver920]

If BMW, Audi and Mercedes SUV's are made in the US, why is this made in Germany? Or, is it made in Germnay? Anyone?

[datboiwes333]

@MacGyver920 This car isn't even sold in the US, at least not yet. So it wouldn't make sense for Ford to have it built over here. BMW and Mercedes sell a large portion of their vehicles (especially SUV's) in the US. I don't think Audi builds any of their vehicles in the US.

[MacGyver920]

@datboiwes333 I think they built their SUV's there. At least I know that BMW and Mercedes makes their SUV's over there. Too bad they doesn't sell European Fords in the US then.

[MacGyver920]

It doesn't look as good in grey.

[Carrera911Fan]

is this supposed to be the replacement for the Ford escape in the NA market ?

[itsTiLER]

@Carrera911Fan they're combining the Escape with this for 2013 when both are redesigned.

[rockspaz12]

I wish they sold these in the US, I like it a lot better than the Escape.

[itsTiLER]

@rockspaz12 Ford is combining the two for the 2013 model year

[eskimochild87]

@rockspaz12 I think this is the redesgn for the escape im guessng the way ford is going

[crashtubes]

@MrMBMW93 We'll do you a trade ;) We want the Chevy Camaro!

[crashtubes]

my Granddad owns one. Honestly? I love it

[dieselboy77]

ford needs to drop the automatic only option from top trim line up in North America , i want a top trim with manual transmission

[NicBunnymen]

I'd stick to Nissan Qashqai. Hey Matt thanks for your review on the Qashqai I've seen it sooo many times and I'm now a proud owner of one. It's excellent on the road and so smooth you feel as though you're flying. Anyone interested in buying a new car I fully recommend the Qashqai. Take care Matt.

[MacGyver920]

If BMW, Audi, and Mercedes SUV's are built in the US, this has got to be that as well!

[bullseye911]

He probably eat all the snacks from the bmw1 glove compartment.

Hands off emergency KitKat!

[piva900]

looks like the Chevy Captiva

[paulmgn0037]

In this day and age of hi tec, how can a car company release a sat nav that is simply pants..!! Ford wake up..!!

[whateverman1028]

As bad as usual, i mean Ford.

[ladygagafan416]

Nice car

[sukhrahira]

vx antara??

[TheMorotgubben]

why do ford not sell suvs in sweden?

[boy638]

i thought they now have collapsible steering wheel when an accident is detected. What's the point of having it move to the side?

[Miguel1994000000]

You are gettin fatter Mat!

Take care of yourself dude. ;)

[lakeb0dom]

@Miguel1994000000 It's not fat, it's power!

[ktonlai]

@Miguel1994000000 he's been working out

[SuperBrunotadeu]

@Miguel1994000000 Winter is coming, got to get yourself ready!

[Miguel1994000000]

@SuperBrunotadeu shure thing.

[chidorimendo]

@Miguel1994000000 he just have more clothes on!

[eskimochild87]

@Miguel1994000000 hes still cute as ever

[stewardlie]

@Miguel1994000000 I don't think he is getting fat. Maybe he hasn't been hitting the gym but definitely not getting fat at all. I say that's because of his lousy wardrobe choice. It makes almost all the difference in a person's appearance.

[OuKrokodil]

@Miguel1994000000 Talk shit........

[steve9509]

@Miguel1994000000 He does not look to fat to me. He is wearing two shirts to which does not help.

[Miguel1994000000]

@steve9509 It's just a joke dude.

[MacGyver920]

@Miguel1994000000 I thought you were right, cause to me, he looks like he's getting fatter, but if you watch his newest video, you'll see that he isn't ;)

[mclarenfanuk]

Love the look of it and in White they look well cool

[bttf001]

does anyone know the name of the song that plays in the background?

[jack8916]

did u gain some weight? 2:54

[2Kriss2Kross]

Great Review! Definitely beats the North American Escape. I hear this will replace it soon.

[c3vzn]

@2Kriss2Kross Nah this Kuga is at the end of its run, its quite old actually. The next generation will replace the escape.

[MrDanahm]

Thumb up if you watched the video when the title was CB Kuga YT
