The Ford Puma is a subcompact crossover built on the same platform as the Fiesta, positioning it in Europe’s B-segment alongside cars like the Renault Captur and Nissan Juke. It measures 4,186 mm long on a 2,588 mm wheelbase, with a distinctive raised ride height and a fastback-style roofline over the rear.
Every petrol Puma runs a 1.0-litre three-cylinder EcoBoost engine with 48-volt mild-hybrid assistance. An integrated starter-generator replaces the alternator, recovering energy under braking and adding torque fill at low revs. Ford quotes outputs in metric horsepower (PS). The entry engine makes 125 PS (123 hp) and 210 Nm with a six-speed manual or 7-speed DCT automatic, reaching 100 km/h in 9.8 seconds with the manual. A 155 PS (153 hp) tune is DCT-only, and the ST uses an exclusive 170 PS (168 hp) state of tune, a peak figure with overboost that settles at 160 PS, paired with the DCT.
The trims run Titanium, ST-Line, ST-Line Black Package, ST-Line X and BlueCruise Edition, with the ST and ST Edition above as the performance models. Every Puma gets a 12-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and the BlueCruise Edition adds Ford’s hands-free motorway driving system. The rear seats fold flat, and Ford’s “MegaBox” underfloor storage compartment beneath the boot floor adds extra capacity for wet or bulky items.
