The freshened Ford Kuga Ambiente arriving in dealerships features even more standard innovations than ever before.
These include including voice-controlled satellite navigation and dual zone climate control.
What’s more, the features are available across the range.
The 2016 Ford Kuga delivers a suite of technologies, driver assist features and fuel efficiency which makes it one of the most innovative small SUVs on the road and a great choice for families who want to stay connected on-the-go.
It offers family friendly technology upgrades including 20cm colour touch screen, DAB+Digital radio, satellite navigation and climate control.
“Ford has made technology available to millions ever since the Model T,” said Graeme Whickman, President and CEO, Ford of Australia.
“The Ford Kuga continues in that tradition, even with the entry level Ambiente model that now will offer SYNC™2, dual climate control, sat nav and reverse camera as standard features.
“We believe it is perfect for young families that are increasingly choosing compact SUVs, the fastest-growing part of the hot SUV market with Ford Kuga one of the top performers this year even before these upgrades.”
