JAKARTA - The list of best-selling cars in the UK by 2025 has so far been released, and the winner may surprise many. Not the latest luxury SUV or electric car, but a small surprise-packed crossover, Ford Puma.

Cited from Top Gear, Wednesday, October 8, Puma is currently leading sales across the UK with sales of 41,531 units, followed by Kia Sportage in second place with 38,734 units sold.

Ford Puma's success in continuing its dominance after successfully becoming the best-selling car throughout 2023. This car proves that a fun driving charm and smart practicality are the keys to winning the hearts of consumers.

Heritage from Fiesta

According to the platform of the late Ford Fiesta, Puma has succeeded in presenting agile driving dynamics, something that is rarely found in the small crossover segment. Critics praise Puma as a car that easily outperforms its closest competitors and brings drivers' charm to a very charmless class of cars."

However, the secret to its biggest success lies in an unusual feature: baggage space. Instead of ordinary storage space, Puma offers a clever innovation called 'MegaBox'. It is a deep storage box and rubber coated under the trunk floor.

'MegaBox' is designed to carry dirty or muddy stuff. And the best part? If the box is dirty, you don't have to bother cleaning the carpet! Just open the water disposal blockage basically, then flush and rinse. A brilliant solution to daily practicality problems.

Interior Update With Giant Screen

Ford is not complacent. After success in 2023, Puma got a facelift in February 2024. The change in small cosmetics in her exterior was perfected with a big competition in the interior.

Puma facelift now offers a massive 12-inch central touch screen, classified as a giant for this small car and a 12.8-inch digital instrument panel, supported by the SYNC 4 connectivity system which is claimed to be twice as fast.

Performance and Price

Under the engine hood, Puma relies on a three-cylindrical, efficient but powerful 1,0-liter, millid-hybrid engine, with an output option of up to 153 stances. Electrical assistance ensures instant acceleration without turbo lag.

Ford Puma is offered in the UK at prices ranging from 25,800 pounds, equivalent to Rp574.6 million. Although slightly more expensive than some of its main competitors such as Nissan Juke or VW T-Cross, British consumers clearly consider it worth it.
