The Ford Puma and Ford Puma Gen-E might look similar at first glance, but they couldn't be more different when it comes to power sources.
One runs on petrol, assisted by hybrid technology, while the other is powered entirely by electricity. So your experience with each will be unique.
The Puma runs on petrol, so you’ll need to top up at the station. However, its mild hybrid options use a small electric motor and regenerative braking to save fuel. You won’t need to plug in like an electric car.
With a full petrol tank, you’re looking at a 400-500 mile range, depending on your driving habits and engine choice. If you’re regularly taking long trips, the Puma is more than equipped to go the distance.
The Gen-E is fully electric, meaning no filling up, just charging.
When you're out and about, Ford’s BlueOval™ Charge Network makes it easy to top up, whether you use AC or DC charging . With over 800,000 charging points across 36 European countries, you can find a station through the FordPass app or in-car navigation. Just download the app and manage payments. You don’t even need an account or card.
For a faster option, DC fast charging is your go-to. The IONITY network within the BlueOval™ Charge Network offers high-power DC chargers that charge your car much faster than standard AC chargers. Plus, thanks to the Plug&Charge feature, you don’t need a card or app—plug in, and charging starts automatically.
If you want to own your first electric car, getting a home charger is a must. It’s like charging your phone— you can plug it in overnight, and your car will be ready by morning. Don’t have a dedicated home charger? You can always use the Type 2 Mode 2 charging cable and plug it into any regular 230V socket. However, it’s slower, so requires a little forward thinking.
If you want to make your charging even smarter, try dynamic charging. This system charges your car during the most cost-effective times, typically when electricity prices are lower. It also helps you use more renewable energy by charging when there’s less demand, making it both wallet and eco-friendly. It’s a great way to save money and reduce your carbon footprint.
The Gen-E comes with a Type 2 Mode 3 charging cable as standard, which works with any AC public charging points. And if you’re using a DC fast charger, those stations come with their own cables to make your journey easier.
All of which means whether you’re charging at home or on the go, your Ford Puma Gen-E offers plenty of hassle-free options to keep you powered up.
For a budget-friendly option, the Ford Puma offers excellent value for money. A new one typically starts around £26,000 , but you can find used Ford Puma models starting at £15,446 depending on the trim and mileage.
This Gen-E retails at £29,995 for the base model. But for that extra investment, you’re getting advanced tech, zero emissions, and all the perks of going electric, mainly, not worrying about the price of petrol.
The Ford Puma is a great pick if you’re into agile handling, a spacious boot, and good mileage. The ST-Line trim offers the perfect balance of performance and comfort.
The cost of leasing a Puma depends on a few factors: whether it's for personal or business use, the initial payment, contract length, and your mileage. Before deciding, check the latest deals to find the best option for you.
This depends on model and year and typically ranges from 11 to 27. The 2024 Ford Puma is in insurance group 13E, while the Ford Puma Gen-E falls within insurance groups 18–19.
Yes. The Gen-E has a host of safety upgrades, including a suite of advanced driver-assistance systems. These include Ford’s Co-Pilot360, which offers automatic emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, lane-keeping assist, and adaptive cruise control.
Amazing. In the city, it’s super easy to navigate with its light steering and compact size—perfect for squeezing into tight parking spots or darting through busy streets. When you head out into the country, the upgraded suspension keeps things smooth over bumpy roads, so you can enjoy the ride without any jolts.
