2023 Ford Puma ST-Line V review
Executive Summary
AutoExec Summary
The 2023 Ford Puma ST-Line V is a well-equipped, fun-to-drive light SUV, starting at $36,390 before on-road costs. It features a 92kW/170Nm 1.0-litre turbo engine, seven-speed dual-clutch auto, and front-wheel drive. The interior has massaging front seats but is cramped in the back. It includes an 8.0-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Safety features are good but some, like adaptive cruise control, are optional. The Puma is fuel-efficient but pricier compared to competitors like the Mazda CX-3 and Volkswagen T-Cross.
Brands mentioned: Ford, Mazda, Volkswagen, Kia, Toyota
