This is the NEW Ford Puma – but it’s NOT a sporty little Coupe

April 3, 2019 By Cars UK

This is the NEW Ford Puma

This is the NEW Ford Puma

Ford is reviving the Puma badge and attaching it to a new Fiesta-based Crossover / SUV due to go on sale in early 2020.

The Ford Puma was a sporty coupe from Ford, based on the Fiesta, and with quite a loyal following. But it went the way of that other much loved sporty Ford Coupe – the Capri – as Ford became more focused and corporate in it lineup. But now the Ford Puma returns.

But this 2019, not 1997 when the last Puma arrived, so rather than a slightly funky and appealing little Fiesta-based Coupe we get what, we hope, is a slightly funky little Fiesta-based…SUV.

Yes, Ford is bringing back the Ford Puma as a Crossover /SUV of Fiesta size, and it appears it’s keeping the EcoSport as a more affordable alternative to the Ford Puma. Because you can’t have too many SUVs in the 21st century.

The Puma will be revealed more fully in the summer – all we have is Ford’s light show covered image above – and go on sale soon after the new Ford Kuga (that’s the new Kuga that looks like a Ford Focus – there’s a theme here) as Ford tries to play SUV catch-up in Europe.

Inside you can expect the Puma to be mainstream Fiesta, with a few tweaks, and come with a range of engines borrowed from the Fiesta. Although Ford is keen you know it will have the option of a 153bhp mild hybrid with the 1.0 litre EcoBoost mated to a 48V starter motor generator. Expect jobbing Titanium, sporty ST Line and posh Vignale trims to be on offer.

According to Ford: “We think Puma is going to really resonate with compact-car customers in Europe. If you want a car that can turn heads on Friday night, and swallow your flat-pack furniture with ease on Saturday afternoon, then you’ve found it“.

We’ll find out later in the year.
