Ford Puma 2021 review

[@Truekingnoctis]

Mixed feelings about this. I am a classic puma owner and what I loved was the space upgrade, fuel economy and having a very very similar sound to the classic puma. It’s supposed to feel the bumpers and the road, honestly is hard to explain but if you own a puma and you see and feel the puma suv you will spend all your money in the highest edition with all the accessories.

[@Jackson-rf6rv]

The face of the entry level Puma looks better than the more expensive variants. Usually it's the other way round

[@Mike-ud6kc]

Being a racing driver and having driven the Puma I don't feel that the steering is numb at all . That engine in sport mode doesn't lag as you pointed and then zips you ahead. I don't think you really know how to drive a turbo car. They all have lag unless it's fitted with a compressor. I found your review a bit subjective but nice .

[@lukehall3487]

the ST-Line same as the one reviewed is the best looking!

[@samlarkin1810]

your style of presenting is gold, way better than those 2 dimensional reviewers with no character. Awesome vid!

Ford duel clutch autos give me Vietnam war flashbacks

[@pasinduarosha6222]

That's fun to watch. Your reviews are significantly better

[@doncoleman4938]

Never been a lover of underpowered, small cars. They just don't have the comfort level of larger vehicles, especially for those with bad backs. This will be good for people who don't care what they got the short straw of the new car world.

[@michaelgoh5830]

Which is more quirky, Ford Puma or the reviewer? Great review, nonetheless, Richard. The mid-range ST Line looks the best.

[@samclynch]

Can y’all please make a Richard Berry playlist on your channel...

[@Rawkus919]

Base model Puma looks best

[@marnuscoreyempanadaslooseb6760]

Peugeot 2008 will be the only small suv i consider buying

[@rc70ys]

And you’d be the only one constantly taking back to the dealer for expensive repairs

[@lennydepinto2259]

I bought a Puma ST Line X Hybrid a month ago. In Italy though. Much better than what's available in Australia. I can get 25 km/litre.

[@CathodeRayNipplez]

I get the high roofs in SUV's but fail to see why they all ride so high? What's that for? Bounding over shopping trolleys at Wollies?

[@KanishQQuotes]

Ford needs to get the GHIA sporty trim instead of the unnecessary padded vigniale

[@mals4400]

Trouble is that no matter how good a ford is, you cannot be confident that Ford will come to the party should something go wrong.....Much like Holden...

[@TabaEdesi]

That was a fun review to watch, but why would you rate the engine just based on that combination with the automatic transmition? If you don´t like it, then just get a manual transmition. I feel like this review is too biased towards AT drivers. 1.0 EcoBoost is a fabulous engine.

[@robertwignall325]

In the UK we get all Manual gearboxes, No Auto option. ST also coming soon with a 1.5 3 cylinder putting out 197bhp & 230nm

[@leftylinky8826]

This is probably the most critical review I’ve seen if the puma. May be the transmission/engine config offered in Australia. Generally seems to review well.

[@namesurname8812]

Dropped my Falcon off for a service this morning and the dealer gave me one of these as a loan car. As I accelerated from the Ford dealer I thought "WTF is wrong with the engine?" It is so noisy and rough at low revs like a bearing is faulty. And the car is brand new showing 20km on the odometer. It is no surprise the Ranger Car Company has problems selling anything but Rangers these days.

[@DeanOrSomething]

Just got this as a rental car, can confirm the car gives me Tom Cruise vibes. Also "Hang on, this one has a flat top" killed me xD

[@pokee2194]

Review the Ford Escape 2020 or the Peugeot 2008 2020. They are both coming soon.

[@pokee2194]

Can't beat CC's But what is the engine size is it 1.2 and 1.5? Because it has a diesel? It depends on Australia.

[@pigeonpoo1823]

This is a raised Fiesta. Juke is a raised Micra. Toyota chr is a raised corolla. Different platform sizes. 1.0l in manual is par for the course in uk for a super mini and even 100hp version is peppy enough (in fiesta)

[@crocodile2006]

This would be a buy.... if it was $5k cheaper and had a manual. Basically it's just a hatchback on high springs.

[@shroomyesc]

I wonder why Australia doesn't get the 6-speed manual mild hybrid engine variant like we do in Europe?

[@marksweet8740]

we are not a big market here so they just give us the rubish the famous ford DSG

Dude you legit are so cool and funny lol... awesome review.

[@steventrueman3493]

Am currently looking at the puma and click on almost anything I see on KZbin to find out more, I am in the UK so I suppose this car with your spec isnt here, but its surprising and interesting to see the different specs you have compared to uk, I suggest you have a look at some KZbin vids from uk and you'll see what I mean. It's because your vid it's such an entertaining vid that I kept watching though, well done, I thoroughly enjoyed it 👍

[@reventonrowe6111]

A 3 cylinder with a Ford DCT transmission. Sounds absolutely terrifying

[@fanniemammie]

review, i love this car en hopefully i got one in september ❤

[@garluns]

Your reviewing style is always entertaining 👍🏼

I liked Richard's face expressions than the Puma itself.

[@andrekleyn727]

Love your way of presentation. Quirky and humorous. Just what we need in 2020 👍🏻🍸

[@peachy3143]

Only real review is owning one .. I’ve had my st-line x 155 in white for 6 months .. put 12k on it and I can genuinely say I love the thing … I’m still shocked how nippy it is for a 1.0L… had it to 136mph and the acceleration is great .. sounds great when you thrash it … I’ve literally driven this car hard every day from picking it up from the dealer and it’s never put a foot wrong and still makes me smile

[@Verbindungs]

It was fun and informative. Thanks.

[@fayh3546]

I got my Puma yesterday. And yes, I do feel jerking when accelerating.☹️

[@tekuratuariki4488]

They said that these new cars don’t have an issue with the clutch but I call bs on that I felt it when test driving the vehicle too. They had been sued from clutch issues last time.

[@rod7177]

Common to all DCT.

[@Tonmoys31]

1 litre engine is too small for a suv. Even CHR updated it to a 1.8 hybrid

[@MLife1972]

Super review. Easy to follow and honest.

[@ChAnkur]

If only #Ford had brought in its mHEV with 6-speed manual transmission varient as well. IFF only...

[@mikem2652]

Enjoyed your review. Amazing how the specs differ from market to market. Just ordered the STline X Vignale here in the UK with a 6 speed manual which has the same engine but 155bhp output. It also is mild hybrid which takes the lull away before the turbo kicks in. Looking forward to it. We only get 3 yr warranty too 😩

[@da_great_mogul]

You could have extended to to 4 & 5 years within the first year of ownership...

[@parkedjeep96]

Smaller than the Escape, we have the EcoSport in the US. Is this the European/ Oceanian alternative? Or is this smaller?

[@hosammansor6631]

I think both share the same platform of the ford fiesta , the puma use a slightly newer version of that platform , i think the puma is a bit more spacious despite the fact that both considered to be in the same segment .

[@meuela]

Love your reviews ,thank you again

[@braalo07]

The upcoming Toyota Yaris Cross and Corolla Cross come with Hybrids. It will be a bummer if they do not offer a hybrid option

[@KanishQQuotes]

Considering this is being sold along with ecosport means they'll launch a new ecosport

[@warpspeedpower]

Should this vehicle be sold in North America, you can bet that Ford will manufacture it with lower quality components than the European version. Ford and GM always do that.

[@mrheyfuckoff1]

[@mikeykeyes]

Just so you know a test in the US has found none of the vehicles equipped with AEB actually stopped in time to avoid a collision. They minimised the impact.

[@robertceroli3512]

Should have used the 1.5t 3cyl end from the focus then it would have been a fun engaging car to drive would have sold a lot more .the way it is now I'll bet it will be a sales flop like the rest of fords vehicles apart from ranger and mustang

[@shroomyesc]

Or the 115kw 6-speed manual powertrain that the European market gets on this (it seems to also have better fuel economy?), but there is also a Puma ST coming with the Fiesta ST powertrain but not sure if that one is coming to Australia either.

[@jerrymyahzcat]

I’d call it a Crossover not an SUV really.

[@joskjj3625]

jerrymyahzcat is call it a hatchback really,doesn’t even have 4wd

[@jerrymyahzcat]

Joskj j The difference between a sedan/Hatchback etc and a crossover is that a crossover is a blend between SUV and car. It’s in the middle. So because this sits higher than a hatch/sedan and is SUVesque it’s a crossover because it’s neither an SUV or a hatch.

All early-adopters of dual clutch transmissions had problems and some (looking at you Ford and VW) handled it very poorly. Most of those issues have been resolved in the intervening years and this gearbox is very likely fine.
