Jennarenne Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 I ordered the ST X feb 2021 and still not had it, can’t give me an ETA and tonight saw an article online that Ford now aren’t producing diesel kugas anymore, has anyone who has ordered one been told they weren’t going to receive their order and had to change to a petrol engine instead? If so did it affect the deal you had made? I’m slightly stressed now that I will never get the car I ordered and that I’m being fobbed off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Dog Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 That's strange I ordered a diesel Kuga 2.0 ltr 190PS in September 2021 Ford said they will honour all diesel orders taken before the cut off date which was the 17th November 2021. I hopefully will have a build date this March or April 2022. I also ordered the following packs for my Kuga, drivers assistance pack, technology pack, and the wireless charging pad. In Agate Black.

Edge of Reason Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Heard you the first time ! 😉 Good choice of car. Is that the MHEV ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Dog Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 Sorry about the double message, not sure what happened there. No it's not the MHEV it's just diesel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any one who has ordered the new Kuga in this last year how long from order to delivery was it for you? I don't know if they are being honest with the dates as on the forms the date was Feb 22 but they assured me it wouldn't be that date... Interested to hear how long it took for others to take delivery of their cars with all that is going on with the semiconductor shortages. 🙂 I ordered my new Kuga PHEV st x on the 6th August 2021 and I was contacted by my dealer 2 weeks ago to say my car had been built and would be shipped from Valencia and I should probably get it by the middle of March.

RodB Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 I ordered my STLineX PHEV on 29th August 2021. I was given various build dates and finally early January 2022. It was built as told but there it stayed and finally arrived in UK first week of March. Now await delivery to me sometime this month. Lack of info from Ford is frustrating.

Brian Hogg Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 I ordered a Kuga ST line X FHEV at the start of December 2021 and haven’t got a build date yet. Not sure how long it will be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Nowosielski Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Ordered my new Ford Kuga Mk3 Vignale PHEV in Luci Red on 24 Jan 2022 and on order form estimated delivery was August/September this year. I had heard nothing since then when out of the blue I received an email (13 May) to say my new Kuga had arrived at a UK Port and was awaiting delivery to PDI centre for preparation and delivery. I have now a delivery date 31st May getting excited once more and feel very lucky when others are having to wait for their cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LFC1986 Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 23MY Kuga ST line X Edition FHEV 2.5 CVT Agate black / 20'' 5x2 spoke alloys / Winter pack / Technology pack / Drivers assistance pack Picked up my new car yesterday to replace my previous FHEV, this was a cancelled order by a customer so didn't provisionally order Having previously had a 22MY Kuga ST line X Edition FHEV I know what to expect, I sold my last one having done 9,000 miles since November last year with 2,600 being ALL electric. Best features for me are the silent remote start from the ford pass app, allowing you to start up the cars internal features including the heated windscreen, climate control, front and rear heated seats plus the heated steering wheel. I have set this to auto on the in car settings with a 10 minute switch off. The instant power from the electric start is great, depending on your speed it isn't long before the engine kicks in. The battery seems to work on speeds up to 50 mph with controlled acceleration and then assists the combustion on the motorway for up to 5 miles. Again couple of MY changes from my previous models; No B&O badges on door pad Speakers just sub woofer on dash. (probably a MY cost saving or shortage). New door pad design. Deletion of internal tailgate light (probably a MY cost saving or shortage). Re added the USB-C port plus additional USB. Gesture tailgate has been deleted - does anyone know if this is anything to do with the semi conductor shortages? It still has the electric tailgate. Looking through the new brochure I've noticed from 16th September 2022 you can add the ST line/ST line X black pack which includes black body styling elements (mirrors caps, front lower fascia, upper tailgate section, hinge cover, shark fin, spoiler), Black KUGA lettering, black ST line badge & 20'' black performance alloys all for a £500 option. Hope this helps Michael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edge of Reason Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 So I’m not up on my hybrids, but a FHEV is a petrol engine which has self charging battery assistance and you don’t plug it in at all ? I’m now wondering what the benefit of a PHEV is if you can do roughly a quarter of your mileage on electric only with a FHEV. I was under the impression that the PHEV could only do around 35 miles tops on electric only from a single charge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomsFocus Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Benefit of a PHEV was charging on cheap electric over night (not so cheap now) and always running on battery power alone if you only do short journeys in 30mph areas. FHEV has to run a petrol engine in order to charge the battery. Fine if you regularly drive at speed, but doesn't really work for people doing mostly urban drives. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus in some cases benefits in the form of lower VED and particularly BIK compared to petrol/diesel for company car users. PHEV seems to becoming somewhat discredited lately as government is waking up to the fact that some people have been getting them purely for the tax benefits and never plug them in. Self-defeating from an economy/emissions viewpoint as you are then lugging round an even heavier battery than with an FHEV, but if they are lucky enough to get their fuel bills paid, why should they care? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
