This is the first official sketch of the Ford Kuga (Cougar for SMS-ists?), the new baby SUV that's to be launched at Frankfurt. It's a good looking little car, with lots of cues from the sharp losis X concept, and using the Focus' entrails, it should be pretty damned good on the road, Clearly, it's going to be much more of a softie than the chunky, square Freelander, and more in line with current eco-conscious market trends.

Details are (heh heh) sketchy, but it should feature Ford's acclaimed diesels, and a hybrid; the Blue Oval may eve get round to offering that over here.
