Ford Kuga III 1.5 EcoBoost ST-Line X - Terrain

Is the Ford Kuga III 1.5 EcoBoost ST-Line X also suitable for off-road use? Here often a distinction is made between "soft-roaders" and real off-roaders. For real off-road capability it needs more than just some more ground clearance. The SUV boom of the last 10 years has produced many vehicles 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 bei dieser speziellen Variante. ob es dieses car auch mit mehr PS gibt, häufig sind diese Eigenschaften den teuersten Modellen 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.



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