They have added some exciting new features in the new 2017 Ford Kuga. The updated vehicle now has self-adjusting bi xenon headlights, new fog lamps, and LED daytime lights.
At the back, the Kuga gets restyled lights as well as a tow bar that is electrically operated. In the interior of the Kuga, there is an 8 inch touchscreen as well as the Sync 3 infotainment system from Ford with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.
Performance
The Kuga facelift is going to come with a 1.5 L TDCi diesel engine which produces 120 hp and is going to be a FWD. Ford Kuga will also come in another variant which is the 2.0 L TDCi diesel which will produce 150 hp. The engine gets a FWD as well as 4WD version. There is also a higher 180 hp version which will be on offer that will come with their intelligent AWD system preinstalled. With the 2017 Kuga, a brand new 1.5 L TDCi turbo diesel engine is also being introduced by Ford.
It is only going to be available with FWD version and will produce 88 hp of power. This is the engine which people who are looking for outright fuel efficiency are going to be going for. In order to get a better understanding of how fuel efficient it is, for the combined cycle, the consumption of fuel has been rated at a mere 4.4 L per 100 km.
Buyers of the Ford Kuga will also be able to select the award winning 1.5 L EcoBoost petrol engine with 120 hp and 150 hp. There will also be a 182 hp AWD version on offer.
Interior
The interior design as well as layout of Ford Kuga 2017 has been changed somewhat keeping in mind the current trends in the automobile sector. The air conditioning and steering wheel controls have both been updated so that they appear to be far more intuitive than ever before.
The car is amazing and sitting in the cockpit (it seems as if it is a cockpit) is spectacular. Have so much capability with all those systems and buttons is just fantastic. If you are seeking power in life, driving this car satisfies that urge because of the electronics and systems at your disposal. This car is loaded with options and things to impress you with.
There are fewer buttons on the dash board which makes for a neater presentation and feels less bogged down. There is an electronic parking brake which helps in freeing up some space. All of the automatic variants come with paddle shifters too which allow drivers to keep their hands on the steering wheel at all times.
Electronics
The highlight when it comes to the interiors has got to be the SYNC 3 system though. It brings navigation, audio, and climate functionality into a single unit and also supports smartphone connectivity and voice command. Ford has been working on the SYNC 3 system for some time now, perfecting it with every update. Not only does it support Android Auto and Apple Carplay, but it also comes with a host of inbuilt systems that you can use without these two operating systems.
How much technology do you need? Some people just want to keep it simple. Why learn duplicate systems as well?
Exterior
The headlights, taillights, and fog lights have all been redesigned. The new alloy wheels are available in 17, 18, and 19 inch variants. Customers can also go for a brand new color which they are calling the Copper Pulse.
Conclusion
With so many new and exciting features on the menu, there is little surprise that buyers will be lining up to enjoy everything that this vehicle has to offer.
