FORD ‘PUMA Gen-E’
FREDERIC SCHLOSSER
The electric Puma Gen-E reenergises the fun to drive character and evolves the distinctive Puma exterior design that have made the compact crossover a hit with customers across Europe.
A new electric powertrain supercharges the Puma driving experience and delivers exceptional efficiency of 13.1 kWh/100 km. Puma Gen-E offers up to 376 km on a full charge 2 so that long journeys are well within reach, while up to 523 km of city range 2 means days of charge-free urban trips.
Connected to a fast charger, a 10-80 per cent charge takes approximately 23 minutes, 3 while seamless acceleration of 0-100 km/h in 8.0 seconds and quicker steering response delivers the essence of Puma ST in electric form.
For the busy city dweller or young family, Puma Gen-E offers even greater space efficiency thanks to the compact electric powertrain. Puma’s innovative MegaBox boot storage space has been boosted to become GigaBox, meaning up to 574 litres 4 of room for luggage with the rear seats in place – more than some larger SUVs can offer. A 43-litre frunk 4 makes good use of the space vacated by the petrol engine, ideal for storing accessories so they can be retrieved even if the boot is full.
