Ford has been a fixture on UK roads for more than a century, and today's range reflects how far that history has travelled. From the practical, mild hybrid Ford Puma to the fully electric Explorer, Capri, and Mustang Mach-E, the current new Ford car range spans petrol, self-charging hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and full electric power. At Vertu, our colleagues can talk you through the full range and help you find the right car for your budget and daily drive.
That breadth is deliberate. Ford's UK line-up is shifting hard towards electrification, with the Puma Gen-E, Explorer, Capri, and Mustang Mach-E sitting alongside long-standing petrol and hybrid favourites like the Ford Kuga. Whichever powertrain suits you, a Vertu Ford dealership near you can help you find it.
Ford's UK range splits into five types of Ford car: hatchback and crossover, family SUV, electric SUV, performance, and people carriers built for leisure and business use alike.
The Ford Puma is the clearest example of how far a single type of Ford car can stretch across power options. Choose the standard Puma and you get a 1.0-litre EcoBoost Hybrid mild hybrid (mHEV) petrol engine, producing 125PS with a six-speed manual or seven-speed automatic, and returning up to 52.3mpg on the WLTP combined cycle. Every Puma comes with the Ford MegaBox, a deep, wipe-clean extra storage well beneath the boot floor, turning everyday clutter like wet boots or a weekly shop into a problem already solved.
Step up to the Ford Puma ST and the same engine gets tuned to 170PS, taking 0-62mph down to 7.4 seconds. For drivers ready to go fully electric, the Ford Puma Gen-E swaps the EcoBoost engine for a 168PS electric motor. You get a Gigabox and frunk loadspace too, with up to 259 miles of WLTP combined range and zero tailpipe emissions whilst driving.
Few models in the Ford range work as hard across powertrains as the Ford Kuga hybrid SUV. Choose from a 1.5-litre EcoBoost petrol producing 150PS, a self-charging hybrid (FHEV) returning up to 52.3mpg, or a plug-in hybrid capable of up to 313.9mpg combined. Four-wheel drive is available on the Active and ST-Line X FHEV variants, giving you year-round versatility whichever way the weather turns.
Inside, every Kuga carries a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and Ford SYNC 4 Navigation on a 13-inch touchscreen. Active, ST-Line, and ST-Line X trims add up to 700W of Bang & Olufsen premium sound. ST-Line X also brings front and rear heated seats, a heated steering wheel, and a Power Opening Panorama Roof for those colder mornings. The boot holds 536 litres, enough for a family's weekend away without folding a single seat.
Sharing the same electric platform, the Ford Explorer and Ford Capri take that engineering in two different directions. The Explorer leans into practicality, while the sleeker Capri trades a little cabin space for a coupe-SUV silhouette. Both span Style, Select, Collection, and Premium trims, with 58kWh, 79kWh, and 77kWh AWD battery options. The Explorer's WLTP combined range runs from 258 to 374 miles depending on battery, while the Capri stretches from 271 to 389 miles. Both give you zero tailpipe emissions whilst driving, with wireless phone charging included from Select trim upward.
DC rapid charging tops out at 185kW on the AWD versions, taking a 10-80% charge to around 27 minutes. The Ford Capri's boot holds 527 litres, with a front trunk adding useful extra storage beneath the bonnet on both models.
Topping the electric SUV range, the Ford Mustang Mach-E reaches up to 487PS on GT trim, with 0-62mph in 3.7 seconds and a 593-litre boot. Even the entry Select trim manages 292 miles of WLTP combined range from its 73kWh battery.
Naturally aspirated V8 power remains at the heart of the Ford Mustang, offered in GT and Dark Horse form. The Dark Horse produces 453PS and 540Nm, reaching 0-62mph in as little as 4.4 seconds with the ten-speed automatic, while MagneRide adaptive suspension comes as standard rather than an option.
For buyers who need more than a conventional SUV, Ford's Tourneo and camper range offers real variety. The Ford Tourneo Connect is available with petrol, diesel or plug-in hybrid power, seating up to three rows in its long-wheelbase form. It holds up to 446 litres behind the third row, or considerably more with seats folded.
The Ford Tourneo Courier brings the same flexibility to a smaller footprint, offered as a 1.0-litre EcoBoost petrol or as the fully electric E-Tourneo Courier (BEV). It has room for up to 2,162 litres of cargo behind the rear liftgate. For something different entirely, the Transit Custom Nugget converts a Transit Custom into a ready-to-camp motorhome, complete with a pop-top elevating roof, twin gas hob, sink, and hot water as standard.
Technology runs consistently through the Ford range, whichever model you choose. Ford SYNC infotainment appears throughout, from a 10-inch touchscreen on the Tourneo Connect up to a 15.5-inch SYNC4A display on the Mustang Mach-E. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto come fitted as standard across the current line-up.
BlueCruise, Ford's hands-free driving assistance, is available on selected Puma, Kuga, Explorer, Capri, and Mustang Mach-E variants, managing steering, acceleration, and braking on approved motorway stretches while you keep your eyes on the road. FordPass Connect adds an embedded modem for vehicle status checks and remote functions through the FordPass app, and Connected Navigation keeps routing live with real-time traffic.
A shared driver assistance suite runs across most models, typically including Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop & Go, Pre-Collision Assist with Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB), and Lane Keeping Aid. Many models add Blind Spot Information System (BLIS), Cross Traffic Alert, Traffic Sign Recognition and Evasive Steer Assist on higher trims.
Storage solutions carry their own model-specific names but the same underlying idea. The Ford MegaBox on the Puma range, the Gigabox and frunk on the Puma Gen-E, and a front trunk on the Explorer, Capri, and Mustang Mach-E all add usable space beyond the standard boot.

Ford has discontinued the Ford Focus as a new car in the UK, ending its run as one of Britain's best-selling hatchbacks. The Ford Fiesta has also ended production. Both remain widely available as used Ford cars, and Vertu's used Ford range includes plenty of well-maintained Focus and Fiesta models for buyers who prefer either.
Ford builds its UK-market cars across a global manufacturing network rather than in one single country. Electric models including the Ford Explorer and Ford Capri are built at Ford's Cologne Electric Vehicle Center in Germany, while other models in the range are produced across Ford's wider European and international plants.
Yes. Ford's EV range includes the Ford Explorer, Ford Capri, Mustang Mach-E and Puma Gen-E, all producing zero tailpipe emissions whilst driving. WLTP combined ranges stretch from around 259 miles on the Puma Gen-E up to 389 miles on the highest-specification Explorer and Capri variants, depending on trim and battery.
Ford BlueCruise is Ford's hands-free driving assistance system, available on selected Ford Puma, Kuga, Explorer, Capri, and Mustang Mach-E variants. On approved motorway stretches, BlueCruise manages steering, acceleration, and braking while you keep your hands off the wheel and your eyes on the road ahead, ready to take back control at any time.
The Ford Explorer and Ford Capri share the same electric platform, battery options and range figures, but differ in bodystyle and focus. The Explorer prioritises interior space and everyday practicality, while the Capri adopts a sleeker, coupe-SUV silhouette. Both are offered with 58kWh, 79kWh, and 77kWh AWD batteries and produce zero tailpipe emissions whilst driving.
The Ford range doesn't currently include a dedicated seven-seat SUV, but the Ford Tourneo Connect offers up to three rows of seating in its long-wheelbase form, with generous load space behind the rearmost row. It's worth discussing your exact seating needs with a Vertu colleague to confirm the right configuration.
Every new Ford comes with a three-year, 60,000-mile manufacturer warranty as standard, covering the whole range from the Puma to the Mustang, plus a year of Ford Assistance roadside cover across the UK and Europe. Electric and plug-in hybrid models add a separate eight-year, 100,000-mile warranty on the high-voltage battery. Ford Protect can extend standard cover further.
The Ford Kuga plug-in hybrid is the most efficient model in the range, returning up to 313.9mpg combined (fuel and electric) with CO2 emissions as low as 21g/km. For drivers not ready to plug in, the Ford hybrid range includes the Kuga self-charging hybrid at up to 52.3mpg, while the Ford Puma mild hybrid also manages up to 52.3mpg.
Several Ford models are available through the Motability scheme, including SUVs and hatchbacks, with advance payment requirements varying by model and specification.
