Re: Ford to drop Kuga name and replace it with Escape
|
|
I know it sounds silly, but as it's currently called a Kuga I've never been interested in it. Now that it's going to be called an Escape, I'm keen on it again.
The Escape has a pretty big following in the US.
The first and second generations were big sellers that gained a good reputation for being capable off-roaders.
Australia lost the plot a little bit as the ZC and ZD escapes were effectively just face lifted models specific to Asia, we never got the Second generation models as the US.
The current model has totally lost its off-road abilities and is now just a urban SUV, but still a pretty nice unit. The name change will serve it well.
