Ford To Launch A Kuga Coupé

This is a 4×4 that’s going to change the compact SUV segment. This striking machine is a coupé version of Ford’s popular Kuga, and it looks ready for production in the near future. Now that the Kuga is firmly established in the off-road market, Ford has decided it’s time to expand the range. With plans to grow the five-door version, there’s room for a sporty sibling that puts the brand in a class of its own.

Just like what BMW did with the X6 and Range Rover did with the Evoque, there are a growing number of consumers that desire the raised seating position of a SUV with coupé looks and a sporty driving experience. The muscular yet athletic proportions are great with large alloys filling in chunky arches. The ride height has been raised, and off-road cues include front and rear skid plates. The Kuga Coupé won’t command an X6 or Evoque price tag or cost a lot to run, though. While the current five-door model is a 4×4, most versions of the three-door are likely to be sold with two-wheel drive for better fuel economy and emissions figures.

Under the bonnet the Kuga Coupé will benefit from the same range of EcoBoost direct-injection turbocharged petrol engines we have seen. Sitting on a modified platform from the next-generation Focus, the Kuga Coupé is to have class-leading driving dynamics with sharp steering, well controlled body roll and plenty of cornering grip.

It will be the sportiest car in its class and while most sales are likely to be front-wheel drive, an all-wheel-drive variant will also be offered. Options such as a panoramic glass roof, the latest hi-tech integrated sat-nav and Bluetooth compatibility, along with a reversing camera, are going to help make the Ford feel every inch the popular Evoque. Production is still a year away so start saving up.
