Ford Kuga Plug-In-Hybrid - the ultimate family SUV? | The Once Over

[@Dreamweaver787]

Had my Kuga 72 plate ST-line for two weeks after a lengthy 9 month wait from ordering. Still getting to terms with the charging side of things having spent a few hours sat in car parks while it does its thing, all in all seems a good car as not had a Ford in over 20 years. My only 2 grips are the drivers seat belt wedges itself between the b pillow and the drivers seat which has scratched the plastic trim, and the steering is a bit to light for such a big vehicle. Also on the gear selector it has a L mode, not to sure what that's for apart from it breaks when you life off the go pedal.

Hey, great choice! Glad you are enjoying your new car. L in the gear selector like you said increases the regenerative breaking - this helps top up the electric battery.

Can’t believe we are still on this design? It’s well overdue a facelift if not a full new model!

[@PeoplesAutomotiveGroup]

Hey Sean - hopefully you have seen the new Kuga announcement? We should get our hands on the facelift model soon and we cant wait to review it.

Get mine 20th feb this drive looks fun , made me laugh behind me you see everyone ski! Behind not a soul on the mountain 😂

[@PeoplesAutomotiveGroup]

Hey, awesome hope you are enjoying it so far! Great drive, worth checking it out at some point.

[@Truthbomb918]

At the start I didn't actually know you were speaking English. They make it easy to open the bonnet and then missed a trick by not putting gas struts on it

[@PeoplesAutomotiveGroup]

That accent! Gas struts would have been a nice touch.

You got that right!

[@nelutufarcas2011]

This vlog would have been very successful in English. Can you subtitle it pls?😂

[@PeoplesAutomotiveGroup]

Hey, this is in English 😂and also has the option for full English subtitles if you click on the subtitles button!

[@nelutufarcas2011]

@@PeoplesAutomotiveGroup Found it. Just kidding. Your accent remembered me of Snatch movie. Brad Pitt's character ..😉 Keep up the good work...

Old Sync. Not sync 4 I see

[@PeoplesAutomotiveGroup]

Hopefully the next generation of Kuga has Sync 4!

[@mikespruce6869]

Not even a mention of the electric options?

[@PeoplesAutomotiveGroup]

Hey, @1:30 we run through all the engine options including the plug-hybrid variants. The Kuga is not available as a fully electric vehicle...yet.
