Final conclusion

As a result, cars are equipped quite well. Many functions of the described machines are updated, some body parts have also improved. The price category of the American car is slightly higher. The choice from the proposed options will make only you, if you liked the car you like.

Ford Cuga, from 899,000 rubles, car from 7.29 rubles / km

We will go different way

The first "Cuga" at birth received a diesel engine and a manual box. For Europeans - the most it. But in Russia, the car in such a specification was not at affairs: we appreciate gasoline crossovers with "automatic". Optimists decided to wait for a more affordable engine, and with him in a bundle and automatic activation, but they received only an even more expensive 200-strong car with a turbo engine. Solid disappointment!

The sequel went to the market allouy: the car received a sane base tag, comparable to the fact that the predecessor was at the start of sales five years ago. And if earlier "Casca" and "Cuhouse" was divided by almost 300 thousand rubles, then today the distance has decreased. At the same time, the default "Ford" is equipped with a more powerful 150-strong motor and a 6-speed box. So now, even after five years, "Ford" still received a chance to draw in their faith of lovers of crossovers - and convinced "Nissanovodov" including.

As with the former "KUGA", the gearbox selector is located on the tilting of the central console.

You look at all hundred!

But the case, of course, not only in the price. Judge for yourself: with the same wheelbase and almost identical width and height, "Ford" looks a lot of impressive "Nissan". And, I must say, it does not seem to me so much: I wanted to pay for a hundred more on my wash with me, not wanting to take an unknown car for classmates "Tiguana" and "Kashka".

Definitely, the aggressor woke up in Cuga. The above view of a slightly surroked "Eye", bloated nostrils of the radiator lattice, muscular arches of the wheels, the sharp line of the belt line, passing through the door handles plus serious on the view of the off-road armor of unwrapped plastic on the sides - all this makes the car seem more severe than it is on actually. It is not surprising that the left row of the Moscow Ring Road is eagerly inferior: the car is definitely perceived as a larger crossover.

Armchairs are not bad, but plastic pillows and inexpressive buttons reveal the feeling of the quality of the interior trim

More azart

I most occupied the question of how the character of Ford corresponds to his aggressive appearance - and I hurried behind the wheel. Up to 182 Ekobeust forces awakens to life with a starter button located on the central console from the driver. I choose the "Drive" mode - and "Cuga" sharply breaks off. The speed set occurs easily - in the declared 9.7 s to 100 km / h almost believe. Why "almost"? The fact is that the machine reacts a little nervously on the movement of the accelerator pedal: at the beginning, "Ford" remains in thought, but after a second, it is undermined from the place. This behavior is all the more surprising that the more powerful "Cuga" looks frankly pale against the background of a much more modest "Tiguana" with a smaller volume of 150 forces.

Do not complain "Ford" and "Game in Checkers": Being unable to hide the high center of gravity, it is actively cubed. Upset me and immodest appetite: two hundred urban versts with races at the Moscow Ring Road at an average speed of 34 km / h devastated the tank almost 30 liters. It was possible to rehabilitate only a diesel modification, to which I moved after a couple of days: in very similar conditions of the capital's everyday life at a speed of 140-strong diesel, only 9.2 liters of "diesel" for every hundred kilometers were content.

Moreover, despite not the most outstanding technical characteristics, the diesel "Ford" found an interesting character: he, with much larger enthusiasm responded to open gas. Robotic box "Powershift", which is friendly exclusively with Diesel, made the most favorable impression: in my opinion, the "robot" is much better understanding what the driver wants from the car.

Techno and utility

Of course, I could not leave without attention and off-road abilities of the crossover. Having gathered the family and Skarb, I joined the ranks of the participants with the familiar "class" traffic jam on the Yaroslavl highway. Since on overcoming the first 15 kilometers was spent almost one and a half hours, I was engaged in the study of the cabin, simply listening to the comments of my home.

The front panel clearly exploits the techno style: it does not just resemble a certain gadget, it really is. Two color monitor, the difficult form of the ring of the speedometer and the tachometer with brightly azure arrows, the mass of stealing switches and levers plus inscribed in a single circumference of the LEDs of the navigator light - all this is even a day of a feeling of some virtualist. The windshield seems a kind of oval screen of the current 3D format, and in the rain these sensations are enhanced by opening "from the nose to the ears" with wipers.

Wide front armchairs are convenient, and even if the tall driver with a passenger will be comfortable with comfort, the sofa will be able to quickly settle three fasten comrades. The great set of niches, shelves and boxes "Cuga" inherited from the predecessor - except that the place of the ending compartment in the center of the front panel took one of the displays.

The backlight of the luggage compartment and the socket on 12 V are located on the right side of the machine

Surprised some utility of individual elements like plastic linings and an electric buttons on the driver's seat pillow. And when I shipped the suitcases in the trunk, I was embarrassed by a wisdom transformation system: the recessed part of the back has discovered the molded crossbar, the rightmost place for which I was subsequently found and could not find.

And also: when the back door raises the electric drive - it's good. But why should I pack your hands, opening the hood - can you save a lot on such a necessary and obviously inexpensive shock absorber? By the way, the safety "lames", which you need to run away from the place, is not located in the center, but on the left side of the engine compartment - and it is painted in a well-noticeable yellow color.

And yet progress is obvious: now the owners of "Kuga" do not need to scratch the ice from the corporate oval to add "OMYVYA" - you can open the hood with the usual lever that lives to the left of the steering column.

Hello, cottage ...

Cuting to the village, I quickly made sure that Cuga (at least diesel) is able to overcome frightening ordinary car traps like blurred holes and an impressive gauge. This in every way promotes decent road clearance and almost completely covered with plastic linings bottom. It is just necessary to monitor that the sand is not clogged under these linings. I did not follow - and was punished: when driving on the Moscow Ring Road at speeds, a slightly lining was disrupted by the oncoming air.

Competitors, hold on!

In general, work on bugs was successful. The new "Cuga" looks tempting: it has a fresh appearance, an excellent diesel, a spacious salon and a trunk - and, of course, a delicious price tag, with which now you can safely rveway to buyers fascinated by the "Casca" and "Aktion". And the front-wheel drive 150-strong "Ford" for 899,000 rubles, which has all the most necessary, and can become a good alternative, say, 122-strong "Tiguan". The sane money is asked for a modification with ACP - from 1,099,000 rubles. In general, representatives of the European Ford branch this time explicitly took into account the specifics of the Russian market and, judging by the sales, passed the most rakes for which the first "Cuga" was passed from the soul.

+ Interesting appearance; spacious salon; Direct and economical diesel; Competitive price

- Sevets of the interior; Lack of gas stop hood

"KUGA" in due time was referred to the title of Kashka's killer, but the car, which is called, did not go: it turned out to be too European. Introducing the second generation of crossover on the market, Fords took into account errors. And the results were not forced to wait.

To be honest, I initially wanted to take exactly ...
After the test drive, I can approximately appreciate the CUGU on the items that I paid attention to (on a 5-point scale):
Exterior - 5: appearance and design very well and impressive, immediately liked.
Interior - 4: Inside everything is fine, except the panel. She is not impressive for me since the 3rd focus and I don't like it.
Comfort - 4.5: As soon as I got for the driver's seat, I broke up in a smile from pleasure and convenience so that my brother, seeing my physiognomy, said that we found what we were looking for. The rear seats are also distinguished by comfort, as well as the presence of adjustment of the tilt of the back. Paul Bala threw off for noise insulation - the engine is decently audible in the cabin, and everything is quite good.
Chassis - 4.5: It works very well all the pits and bumps, relatively soft, passengers of the back row of the seats are delighted, but I heard a couple of breakdowns on the front racks.
Engine (1.6 EB) - 5: The test drive was 1.6 ecobust, which showed quite a good dynamics for its volume and sizes of the car.
Transmission (AT) -3: The test drive was AT, which, in my opinion, did not switch the transmission, jerks, forcing the engine on the increased turnover.
Handling - 5: Auto is perfectly controlled, rolls in turns are not significant, I expected that I would be more.

In general, it turned out a good car, which I did not immediately take from a couple of reasons:
- no modification with a conventional atmospheric engine on the usual manual transmission, namely this one of the key indicators of the choice of cars for me
- Well, the panel that I do not really like it.

Now Cascai on the same items for me:
Exterior - 5: I really liked the new Kashka design, although the previous one did not attract my attention.
Interior - 5: Inside the new county is also beautiful as outside, I liked everything
Comfort - 4.5: Noise isolation better than Kuga. Sit both in front and rearly conveniently, but on the driver's seat there is no one delightful feeling of comfort as in Kuga, and still it would be nice to make adjustment of the back of the back of the rear seats.
Chassis - 4.5: Works well, there were no breakdowns, but more tough than Kugu
Engine (2.0) - 5: There was 2.0 on the test drive, which worked exactly as expected from him on such a car.
Transmission (CVT) -5: For the first time traveled on the variator, very impressed the softness of the course, a good reaction and dynamics, which also surprised. Contrary to reviews about the noise of variants, there were no sounds from it.
Handling - 4.5: Control good, but lustful worse Cures. I can not say for sure that it is, but the overall feeling was exactly this.

As a result, I ordered Casca, despite the fact that I was immediately warned that it would be possible to wait for already before October (test drive and inspection was in the first half of June).
This choice was carried out for the following reasons:
- there is a modification with an atmospheric on the manual transmission that, as I noted, one of the most important factors for choosing a car for me,
- The machine for all other parameters completely satisfied, impressed the number of options in the basic configuration, and also pleased with his design both inside and outside.
- From all the cars viewed this most likely in his wife.

Excellent comparison! By the way, my friend was on the Kuga test, he did not like what was very curves of the gaps .... Well, it was just not exactly, maybe this option could have fallen, and maybe it was, I personally did not see it a car. And yes, the panel of the Fords is terrible)

The cross-space of the Russian car market of 2006-2008 was distinguished by a dense filling, with one of the leading positions of Nissan Kashka and with not the most good figures from Ford Kuga. Subsequently, both models have survived restyling and now buyers are represented by new versions that are distinguished by original design, excellent handling and intriguing technical data. What model to give preference when choosing among crossovers?

Today, in the era of urbanization, urban crossovers are becoming popular. Models Ford Kuga and Nissan Qashkai are one of the most purchased comfortable cars.

To whom it is suitable

Casca or Cuga. What's better? These two crossovers are considered family, as they have a spacious interior and a deep trunk. As a rule, you buy large families such a car.

Car owners believe that Qashkai is suitable only for travel on the tracks and perfectly even road surface. But Ford Guga is higher. Both compared machines are equipped with a all-wheel drive transmission. Therefore, in the battle of Ford Kug or Nissan Casciai, a draw.

Key differences

If you decide, in favor of what car to make a choice, - Nissan Casca or Ford Cuga - it is worth comparing a number of indicators:

• capacity of the cabin. The rear seats of Nissan Qashqai are cleaned, it is impossible to sit on three passengers. In Ford Kuga he is spacious due to the fact that the body is slightly wider;
• seat shape. The rear armchairs Nissan Qashqai is recognized as experts ideal, as they hold the body in a relaxed state;
• the rear seats are almost the same, but Nissan Cascais has a softer pillow;
• ford Kuga Front Panel looks very beautiful. It is equipped with a large monitor, the devices are lit by neon backlight. The design is made in a modern style. It is convenient to use a multimedia system;
• Ford Kuga has a comfortable armrest in the rear seat in the middle where drinks are set. Especially like it to children who are glad to be placed through a spacious salon, comfortable chairs and armrest.

Nissan users point out excellent aerodynamics and sustainability on the road, as well as a wide viewing mirror. The car shakes smoothly.

The rear chamber will be useful, which is included in the basic configuration. Autolokers note the presence of heat glass heating, which is indispensable in frost. You need to choose the appropriate option from the kuga vs qashqai pair, taking into account this parameter.

Fan Kuga fans talk about the excellent work of the Haldex coupling, road stability and reliable suspension. It operates the control climate system. In addition, Ford Kuga accelerates faster than Nissan, experts say. When you decide on the purchase of Ford Kuga or Nissan Qashqai, this often becomes a decisive criterion.

External features

As for the exterior of both cars, similarities are noted here. Model 2016 Nissan Qashkai resembles Lexus RX. Ford itself is different from Nissan only by another door inclination.

A larger Ford car in comparison with Nissan looks much longer due to the elongated line of windows that bend. And if you look at the front part, then, compared with Nissan Qashqai, Kuga crossover and it looks neutral at all. The Ford Kuga car looks like a nonsense for an SUV.

According to the representatives of the manufacturer, the volume of the trunk in the car is 430 liters - not the largest indicator for a practical car. However, there is an opportunity to fold the Nissan seat, lowering it in the proportion of 60:40.

Indeed, the pillows on Qashqai do not rise up, as a result of which the cargo compartment becomes the holder of a high step. The result is awaiting - even with a complete transformation of the cabin, a small crossover Nissan Qashqai gets free space in 1510 liters, which is not very convenient to use.

Opinion experts

In general, both models, according to the polls of professionals, were estimated at 8.5-9 points out of 10. This is a fairly high indicator, indicative of the worthy quality and convenience of the models under consideration. A convenient management system and good "behavior" on the roads make it difficult to answer the question "what is better." Therefore, to choose Nissan Qashqai or Ford Kuga to have only you.
