Ford Kuga PHEV (Plug-in Hybrid Vehicle)

The Ford Kuga is a compact crossover SUV (C-segment) manufactured by Ford. The Plug-in Hybrid (PHEV) variant is a cornerstone of Ford's European electrification strategy. While Ford is an American brand, the Kuga was primarily developed by Ford of Europe and is known as the Ford Escape in North American and Chinese markets.

Most Ford Kuga models sold in Europe, including the PHEV versions, are manufactured at Ford's Valencia Assembly Plant in Almussafes, Spain. The vehicle utilizes a power-split architecture that combines a 2.5-liter Atkinson-cycle petrol engine with an electric motor and a lithium-ion battery. Ownership remains with the Ford Motor Company, which continues to transition its global fleet toward electrified powertrains.
