nice and comfy. Kuga rear seats can recline for more comfort.

More spacious then CX5, but lose to CRV

rear seat space does feel more spacious than cx5
however, while the CRV has the biggest space of the 3, i found that it's seating position a bit too low, so the kuga feels more comfortable although being more cramped in comparison

Hi guys. I have decided to get  Ford Kuga. So please share your experience and common problems, and what do you think of the fuel consumption??

Since there is no GPS, reverse camera and automated driver seat, can anyone advice if I could these accessories?

Also, please advice what kind of tinting I should get to block sun, there are just so many types, please share you experience please!

Please advice.

have u drive a car with automated driver seat before?
from my experience, if ur mom alone drive the car then it's good. changing driver/person who drive; to me some kind of hassle for powered seat..unless..unless it's equipped with memory.
almost 2 years, i never find a good/comfortable seating position with my dad pug 508. tongue.gif

another thing to note when comparing the FC with the CX5 is that a majority of CX5 on our roads are FWD while Kuga comes in only 4WD, at least for now

and the real world FC figures you get from the forum here would usually be the 2.0 FWD version (2.5 is still new) and for sure Kuga is being handicapped in the comparison

Whatever it is, Kuga's killer look and boot opening technology attracted me to the core!!

What do you expect from a 2.0L NA engine to carry the weight of the CX5?

For some people they may think 2.0L is enough but for you, I believe the 2.5L would satisfy you.

If I'm not wrong, the 2.5L FC is not far off the 2.0L. Have a look at the Mazda CX5 thread.

Hi Guys. The Kuga is a definite winner in my books and i am lucky to have recently detailed and coated a beautiful black and a luxurious white model. Excellent paintwork, good sound proofing and pretty nippy torque. If any of you guys here keen to learn more about how to wash your car and keeping your car looking new for years to come, pls PM me or google my i.d.

Got my Kuga out. Fabulous drive as of now. Just a few questions:

Dear Kuga users:

1. How much will the tire cost?
2. The air cond, why the inner circulation turns off everytime I start the car, cannot make it permanent?
3. The disc break, when I release the break, there is noise
4. Will the fuel consumption reduce over time when the engine wears out a bit?

Thanks!

Please advice
