With the launch this month of its Kuga Van, Ford is promising one of the most visually appealing commercial vehicles on the road.
The new van has all the looks and specification of the stylish Kuga Zetec SUV, but with a strong workhorse side to it, plus vastly reduced Vehicle Registration Tax (VRT) and Benefit-in-Kind (BIK) to match.
The Kuga Van is available from €27,800 inclusive.
The all-wheel-drive Kuga Van is tapping into the market for high-spec car-like vans, which appeal in today's climate not only for their low capital cost, but also for savings of hundreds of euro per month in BIK for the user.
Powered by the engaging 2.0 TDCi Duratorq 136PS powertrain, the Kuga Van boasts a spacious load capacity which belies its sharp exterior.
Standard specification includes: ESP (Electronic Stability Programme), six airbags as part of Ford's Intelligent Protection System, air conditioning, 17-inch wheels, six-speaker remote radio CD, electric heated door mirrors, front fogs, trip computer, keyless start with Ford Power button, body colour rear spoiler and leather steering wheel.
The Kuga has best-in-class NCAP safety ratings, with a five-star rating for adult occupancy protection.
