What to know

The Puma doesn't have its own confirmed figure in the DVSA dataset used across this site. As one of Ford's newest and highest-specification models, larger SUVs like the Kuga test meaningfully above Ford's overall brand average of 68.7%, and it's reasonable to expect the Puma follows a similar pattern given its age and segment, though this remains an inference rather than a confirmed model-specific figure.

As the UK's best-selling car for three consecutive years, there's a large and growing used market, including a fully electric Puma Gen-E version, worth checking specifically which powertrain a used example has.
