AI generated from our expert reviews

The Ford Kuga is longer than the BYD Atto 2, giving you a bigger boot and more room with the back seats folded. When tackling big speed bumps, both cars are comfortable. Head onto country roads, however, and the Kuga inspires confidence with minimal body lean, whereas the Atto 2 feels out of its depth with plenty of body lean around turns. At motorway cruising speeds, wind and road noise are remarkably quiet in all Kugas, while the Atto 2 has noticeable wind noise from the side mirrors. Step inside, and both models feature scratchy plastics below the dashboard and around the centre console.
