FORD KUGA IN MOTION

There’s a clip below where you’ll find that the shockingly good-looking Ford Kuga – not for us in North America – would make a CR-V, RAV4, and Escape disappear in a Wal-Mart parking lot.  Sure, in production form and in motion, the Kuga isn’t what you thought it might be on a showstand under the bright lights….. but, it’s an attractive vehicle.  Alongside the Mondeo, facelifted Euro-Focus, the S-Max, and new Fiesta, this forms one of the most stunning mainstream showrooms in autodom.  Ford.  Wow.
