2020 Ford Kuga (3rd Generation)

This is the facelifted Ford Kuga: get yer specs and details here

Mid-cycle facelift brings a, er, facelift, several engine options and upgraded tech. No RS model though

The third-generation Ford Kuga is all set for its mid-cycle facelift, led by a refreshed list of powertrains, a cleaner interior design, and a swathe of Ford’s latest tech and safety gadgets. The trim levels have seen a shake-up too, with the ‘Active’, ‘Titanium and ‘ST-Line’ grades headlining the group. Sadly, no mention of an ‘RS’. Darn it.
From launch, customers can choose the entry-level, 1.5-litre EcoBoost engine with 147bhp and manual transmission, or from a triumvirate of 2.5-litre petrol hybrids which deliver 177, 180, or 239bhp.

The latter will serve as the only plug-in hybrid of the range, while the 180bhp option is the only all-wheel drive version with the rest being front-wheel drive.

Ford quotes an estimated 43 miles of zero-emission driving from the PHEV models, while a further 559 miles can be completed on some good ol’ fossil juice. The updated Kuga will also continue to have one of the best towing capacities in its class, claims Ford, at a maximum of 2,100kg. Note: this figure is subject to breakfast choices.
