Ford’s Australian division has announced a bunch of new comers for next year, among them being the Kuga compact SUV built in Europe.
"The Ford Kuga will be an exciting addition to our Australian model range," Bob Graziano, President and CEO of Ford Australia, said."The Ford Kuga is certain to appeal to customers looking for a stylish, practical and fun compact SUV."
"During the last year we have either replaced or updated around 85 per cent of Ford's Australian model line-up and we are certain the Ford Kuga will be another compelling offer for our customers," he said.

Two versions will be offered, the Kuga Trend and the Titanium, both powered by the same five-cylinder petrol turbo engine developing 197 horsepower, fitted with a five-speed automatic transmission matched to an intelligent all-wheel drive system. Yes folks, we’re talking about the old model, not the 2013 Escape that made its debut in Los Angeles.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
