Road test: Ford Kuga

Ford has given its mid-sized SUV, the Kuga, a makeover with sporty ST-Line trim. AOL Cars gives it a try to see if this capable load-lugger works as a sportily-styled family runaround.

What is it?

While the Ford Edge is the American brand's best-selling SUV on its home turf, here in the UK we have a taste for rather smaller cars – so the mid-sized Kuga is immensely popular. Here we're testing it in snazzy ST-Line X trim, with the highest-powered diesel engine and an automatic gearbox.
