Is a Ford Kuga III 1.5 EcoBoost ST-Line X good for off-road?

Can the Ford Kuga III 1.5 EcoBoost ST-Line X also be used off-road? Here usually a distinction is made between "soft-roaders" and real off-roaders. Wanting to go into real off-road it needs more than just an all-wheel drive. The SUV boom of the last 10 years has produced many cars that look off-road but have limited capability to do so.

Dem Ford Kuga fehlt der Allradantrieb von vornherein. Höchstwahrscheinlich kann man ihn auch nicht durch Aufpreis hinzubuchen, zumindest nicht bei diesem speziellen Modell. Prüfen Sie doch einfach mal, häufig sind diese Eigenschaften den Topmodellen der jeweiligen Baureihen vorbehalten. Ground clearance, another important criterion, is 178 mm for this vehicle. This allows it to move forward even in hilly terrain and, for example, on muddy paths in the forest without sitting up, assuming all-wheel drive. Torque is available at 240 Nm, which is something you can start with - but if you pull a lot, you will also feel it properly.

The integrated 360-degree camera can also help you move forward on rough terrain and avoid damage.

Rating: Due to the lack of all-wheel drive and the low ground clearance, the Ford Kuga is not suitable for off-road use.
