FORD PUMA GEN-E Premium 124kW 47kWh SUV.Auto

The Ford Puma Gen-E Premium 124kW 47kWh SUV Auto is the top-tier, all-electric version of the UK’s bestselling crossover. Transitioning from a mild-hybrid to a full battery-electric vehicle (BEV), this model blends the Puma’s signature sporty driving dynamics with high-tech features and zero-emission efficiency, aimed heavily at urban and suburban drivers.

• Power Output: 124 kW (equivalent to 168 bhp / 166 hp) paired with 290 Nm of instant torque.
• Acceleration: Redesigned for crisp city driving, it covers 0–62 mph in 8.0 seconds flat.
• Top Speed: Electronically capped at 99 mph.
• Driving Modes: Normal, Eco, Sport (which introduces simulated propulsion audio), and Slippery. It supports full one-pedal driving to maximise energy recuperation in heavy traffic.
• Battery, Range & Charging
  Despite the model name notation referring to a “47kWh” variant, it features a 53 kWh gross battery with roughly 43.6 kWh to 46.8 kWh of usable capacity. 
  • Official WLTP Range: The Premium trim offers up to 226 to 251 miles on a full charge (slightly less than the entry-level ‘Select’ trim due to its larger wheels and higher equipment weight). 
  • Real-World Range: Expect roughly 190–200 miles in ideal weather, dipping closer to 170 miles during colder winter months. 
  • Charging Speed: Equipped with 100 kW DC fast-charging capability, it can replenish the battery from 10% to 80% in approximately 23 to 26 minutes.
  • Premium Trim Features
    Choosing the Premium spec over the base Select variant upgrades the exterior aesthetics and cabin luxury: 
    • Exterior Upgrades: Distinctive 18-inch alloy wheels (upgradable to 19-inch), signature “triple light strike” Matrix LED headlights, and a convenient hands-free powered tailgate. 
    • Audio & Comfort: A premium 10-speaker Bang & Olufsen (B&O) sound system featuring a distinctive dashboard soundbar, keyless entry/start, and heated Sensico synthetic leather seats. 
    • Infotainment: A massive 12.8-inch digital driver display alongside a highly responsive 12-inch SYNC 4 central touchscreen. It includes wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Alexa Built-In, and an EV-optimised trip planner. 
    • Safety & Driver Aids: Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane-Keeping Assist, Traffic Sign Recognition, and support for Ford’s hands-free BlueCruise system on designated UK motorways. 
    • Practicality & Dimensions
      Because it is built on a modified petrol Puma platform rather than a bespoke EV layout, it shares similar interior constraints but manages clever cargo packaging. 
      • Boot Capacity: Offers a generous 523 to 556 litres with the rear seats up, expanding to 1,283 litres when folded down. 
      • The MegaBox & Frunk: Includes the famous under-floor MegaBox (adding drainable storage ideal for wet gear) and a small 43-litre front trunk (frunk) under the bonnet for charging cables. 
      • Cabin Space: Front passengers experience an excellent, commanding driving position. However, because the floor is raised to accommodate the battery pack, rear-seat legroom and foot room can feel tight for taller adults.
