I previously drove the Ford Kuga and Territory, which have noticeable differences in technology and performance. The Kuga is equipped with a 1.5T or 2.0T turbocharged engine, offering quick acceleration response and a sportier chassis tuning. It provides excellent body stability during turns and strong handling, making it ideal for city driving and driving enthusiasts. The Territory focuses more on comfort, with slightly more space and softer suspension, delivering a smoother ride over speed bumps and rough roads. Technologically, the Kuga is based on Ford's global platform and features more electronic assistance systems, such as blind-spot monitoring and adaptive cruise control. The Territory has simplified configurations in some markets, resulting in a lower starting price. Both models offer four-wheel-drive versions, but the Kuga has slightly better off-road capability. For daily driving, the Kuga is more fuel-efficient, especially in traffic jams, while the Territory performs well on highways. Overall, the Kuga leans towards a more aggressive driving experience, while the Territory is more practical for family use.
