The Ford Kuga Plug-in Hybrid is one of the most popular electrified vehicles in Europe, offering a spacious and versatile SUV with a low-emission powertrain. But if you want to stand out from the crowd, check out the new Ford Kuga Graphite Tech Edition, a special model that combines exclusive design features with advanced technology.
The Ford Kuga Graphite Tech Edition is based on the Ford Kuga ST-Line X, which means it comes with sporty styling elements such as a black grille, black roof rails, black mirror caps, and 19-inch alloy wheels. But what sets it apart is the unique Graphite Grey paintwork, which gives it a sleek and sophisticated look.
The interior is also upgraded with leather seats, a panoramic roof, and a B&O sound system. The Graphite Tech Edition also features Ford’s latest SYNC 4 infotainment system, which includes wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, cloud-connected navigation, and over-the-air updates.
But the main attraction of the Ford Kuga Graphite Tech Edition is its plug-in hybrid powertrain, which combines a 2.5-liter Atkinson-cycle petrol engine with an electric motor and a 14.4 kWh battery. The system delivers a total of 225 horsepower and can drive up to 56 km (35 miles) on electric power alone, according to the WLTP cycle.
The Ford Kuga Plug-in Hybrid also has a regenerative braking system that recovers up to 90% of the energy normally lost during braking and coasting and stores it in the battery for later use. This helps reduce fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, which are rated at 1.4 l/100 km (169 mpg) and 32 g/km, respectively.
The Ford Kuga Graphite Tech Edition is available to order now in Denmark, Norway, Sweden, and Finland, with prices starting from $48,836. The first deliveries are expected in early 2023.
