FORD REINVENTS BESTSELLING KUGA SUV

  • New Kuga SUV inspires drivers to embrace electric future with upgraded hybrid powertrains to suit all needs and deliver best-in-class towing ability
  • Assertive exterior complements clean interior design with standard 13.2-inch landscape touchscreen and SYNC 4 cloud-connected 5G infotainment system
  • Advanced driver assistance technologies including enhanced Adaptive Cruise Control will boost driver confidence and comfort

COLOGNE, Germany, Jan. 17, 2024 – Ford is inspiring drivers to embrace the electric future and new Kuga – Europe’s bestselling plug-in hybrid (PHEV) in 2021, 2022 1,2 and on track for 2023 according to the latest available data – will play a key role on the journey. Bold and assertive new Kuga offers surprising performance from hybrid powertrains, the convenience of seamless connectivity, and a full range of latest-generation driver assistance systems that make it the ideal companion for everyday adventures.

The new Kuga range – built in Europe and designed for European drivers – offers up to 69 km 3 of pure electric driving for Kuga PHEV customers who can take advantage of home or public charging. For drivers who may not have convenient charging close at hand, the full hybrid Kuga Hybrid offers the convenience and comfort of an electrified powertrain, with up to 900 km of driving range on a single tank of fuel 4 and up to 64 per cent pure electric driving in the city. 5

Both Kuga Plug-In Hybrid and Kuga Hybrid AWD deliver significantly improved acceleration, with the reduced emissions of an electrified driving experience. Offering up to 2,100 kg 6 of towing ability, pulling power beats all rivals and means new Kuga is able to take everything from a large caravan to a horsebox in its stride.

“The Ford Kuga has been a hit with customers since it was first launched in 2008. The new Kuga is our best ever, moving the game forward with new levels of capability, connectivity and comfort,” said Jon Williams, general manager, Ford Blue, Europe.

Fresh design and seamless connectivity

New Kuga has evolved both inside and out, with a fresh, confident design. The smart Titanium, sporty ST-Line and rugged Active models have unique design features and distinctive personalities. An eye-catching full-width LED light bar frames the new front grille design, which proudly displays the Ford Blue Oval, underlining its strength and purpose.

Inside, new Kuga features Ford’s latest-generation SYNC 4 7 infotainment offering twice the computing power of the previous system. Integrating seamlessly with smartphones, it has 5G connectivity for fast access to information, cloud-connected navigation to help stay ahead of the jams, with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto 8 for cable-free access to key apps and information. Alexa Built-in 9 is also standard, so drivers and passengers can ask questions or make commands even without a smartphone connected.

SYNC 4 also supports drivers in making the most of new Kuga’s towing ability, 6 with the Trailer Connection Checklist helping to support safe and secure connections. Trailer Tow Navigation enables drivers to enter the dimensions of their car and trailer so that SYNC 4 can select a route to help avoid tight turns, low bridges and other obstacles.

Cutting-edge tech from factory to driveway

Advanced driver assistance technology supports an effortless, comfortable drive in even the most challenging conditions. The new generation Adaptive Cruise Control 10,11 can now apply the brakes automatically for curves and junctions as well as other traffic, while the 360-degree camera system 12 offers an aerial view so that parking, preparing to hitch up a trailer or even using an automatic car wash are a breeze.

Practicality is at the heart of new Kuga’s interior, offering comfort and convenience ready for adventures in the city and beyond. Sliding second row seats can boost legroom to over 1 metre for rear occupants or create up to 150 litres 13 of extra boot space. Optional comfort seats approved by a leading spinal health organisation deliver support where it is most needed.

This fresh Kuga line-up boasts the new Active series, perfect for those who want the most rugged Kuga, both in looks and capability, and able to handle surfaces including sand or mud.

Advanced lighting technology helps to improve comfort and confidence for the driver, with full LED headlights including Automatic High Beam Control 10 as standard. Available Dynamic Pixel LED headlights 10 use navigation data and a windscreen-mounted camera to read road signs, altering the light pattern at curves, junctions and roundabouts to better illuminate pedestrians and cyclists.

New Kuga is built in Europe at Ford’s advanced Valencia plant in Spain, where 3D printing of parts delivers highly accurate and sustainable manufacturing. Artificial intelligence works hand-in-hand with engineers to ensure the highest standards of quality and production.

New Kuga is on sale this month.

DEARBORN, Mich., Oct. 25, 2022 – Equipped better than ever before to conquer daily adventures – from heavy traffic to lunch with co-workers or maneuvering into the last parking space on the block – the new Ford Escape® SUV is ready to shine in the city and for quick getaways.

Ford has given the compact SUV a thorough makeover that includes a stylish new ST-Line series, available 13.2-inch display with cloud-connected SYNC 4 Technology and new advanced driver-assistance system technologies. Continuing popular features include a sliding second row seat with more second-row legroom than the Toyota Sequoia,1 and hybrid and plug-in hybrid engine choices.

Sporty New ST-Line, New Series Lineup

A new sporty ST-Line series, offered in three models, boosts the look of Escape with athletic touches. The ST-Line offers a 1.5-liter EcoBoost engine targeting 180-hp with front-wheel or available all-wheel drive, as well as an available hybrid option with front-wheel drive.

The ST-Line Select model offers the optional 19-inch Machine-Faced Ebony Painted aluminum wheels that are standard on the ST-Line Elite model.

“Not every customer wants a rugged and boxy SUV, so we’ve made the new Escape more energetic, confident and sleeker,” said Amko Leenarts, director, Ford Design. “The Escape interior complements the exterior, with a relaxing space that’s stylish yet comfortable with easy access to technology for the road or staying connected with friends and family.”

Hybrids Offer Consumers Power of Choice

Escape, which debuted the world’s first hybrid SUV in 2005, brings back two hybrid choices for 2023, a full hybrid and a Plug-In Hybrid** model.

“Ford is among the leading hybrid automakers in the U.S. because we understand that not all of our customers are ready to go all-electric,” said Zaski. “With two hybrid powertrain choices, customers can spend less time at the gas station and keep more money in their pockets.”

Every model in the 2023 Ford Escape SUV lineup, whether powered by one of two available EcoBoost engines or hybrid powertrains, targets an EPA-estimated range of at least 400 miles per tank*. The full hybrid model with front-wheel-drive targets an EPA-estimated range of more than 550 miles.

Escape Plug-In Hybrid model** includes Ford’s advanced fourth-generation hybrid propulsion system, which includes a 2.5-liter Atkinson cycle hybrid engine and electronic continuously variable transmission. The front-wheel drive hybrid model is projected to produce a combined system of 210 hp.5

The 2023 Ford Escape SUV Plug-In Hybrid model** targets an EPA-estimated range of 37 miles in electric-only mode.6. Escape Plug-in Hybrid has a Level 1 / Level 2 AC charging port. Using a 110-volt Level 1 charge, the estimated time to fully charge the battery is 10 to 11 hours. Using a 240-volt Level 2 charge, charge time drops to roughly 3.5 hours.

The Escape Plug-In Hybrid model** features four EV modes that allow customers to select the settings most suitable for their individual needs.

  • In Auto EV mode, the vehicle decides whether to run on gas or electric power
  • In EV Now mode, drivers can operate on all-electric driving
  • In EV Later mode, drivers can switch to full gas-powered driving to conserve electric miles for later
  • In EV Charge mode, drivers can continue to charge the battery while driving and generate electric-only miles to use later

New Levels of Connectivity, Driver-Assist Features

The new Escape is also smart and connected with SYNC 4 providing cloud-connected navigation and integrating standard wireless Apple CarPlay software feature and Android Auto smart driving capability for fast, easy connectivity.7

The cloud connectivity combines SYNC 4 with available Enhanced Voice Recognition with the power of internet-based search results so drivers and passengers have access to the latest information with almost every request – from close restaurants to nearby charging stations.8 Available Connected Built-In Navigation delivers accurate traffic information on closures, accidents and more, while a digital owner’s manual lets owners find information about their vehicle quickly and easily.9

In addition, Ford Power-Up over-the-air software updates are transforming the ownership experience by regularly adding new software features and other improvements that keep making Ford vehicles better over time. Customers can pre-schedule software updates at convenient times – perfect for owners with busy schedules.10

The Alexa Built-in hands-free experience with complimentary connectivity for Alexa for up to three years makes it easy to listen to music, navigate, control smart home devices, add items to a shopping list and more.11 The integrated system offers seamless voice commands such as “Alexa, find the closest gas station,” or “Alexa, play my road trip playlist,” or “Alexa, call Mom.” Enhanced Voice Recognition also can tailor Alexa to customers’ natural way of speaking.

Available Ford Co-Pilot360 technology now features Intersection Assist 2.0, which helps clients avoid potential collisions with pedestrians while turning.12 Escape also will debut Blind Spot Assist, which will alert the driver with a light on the sideview mirror, applying a nudge in the steering system to help caution against an unsafe action in a case where the driver has missed warnings from the Blind Spot Information System. This feature will detect other vehicles and motorcyclists in blind spots.12

Non so dire se mi piace questo restyling vuoi perchè il modello di base sembra una grossa hatchback gonfiata piuttosto che un suv...e rimane quel dettaglio del paraurti super sporgente al posteriore.

 

Il televisore all'interno ha anche la Fire TV? :rolleyes:

Io ringrazio che non abbia più quello sguardo da idiota o, in alcuni casi, da dinosauro senza mento.

 

Dentro rimane antidiluviano (che non è per forza negativo) e quelle cuciture nei sedili dell'ST-Line mi mandano in confusione assoluta.

Un netto miglioramento al frontale, dal video si nota anche meglio la tridimensionalità del muso con la griglia frontale che pare essere incassata rispetto al contorno.

A livello di motorizzazioni la gamma attuale non è male quindi credo che non sia intervenuti più di tanto, un po' come su Focus.

Ma hanno messo il monociglio? :disp2:

 

Se parli della fascia luminosa, su Escape è presente nel top di gamma ST Line Elite (hanno presentato tre step per ST Line).

Non si parla di AWD sulla plug-in da nessuna parte, quindi anche a 'sto giro nada.

Confermo, da configuratore Ford USA la plug-in è FWD.

Essendo io un dinosauro, non mi dispiaceva prima e non  mi dispiace neanche questo restyling. :mrgreen:

l'antidiluvianità degli interni è, per me, un enorme plus. :si:
