Compare the Dacia Bigster vs Ford Kuga
AI generated from our expert reviews
If you need to pack bulky loads, the Dacia Bigster has more room with the back seats folded, though the Ford Kuga can tow more. Out on the road, the Kuga is remarkably quiet for wind and road noise, whereas the Bigster is noisier, mostly in terms of wind noise. When cornering, the Kuga’s steering offers a better idea of what the front wheels are doing, while the Bigster gives you almost no feedback about what the front wheels are doing. Inside, both cars feature scratchy plastics. The Bigster’s cabin materials are uniformly hard and scratchy, whereas the Kuga has a few too many scratchy plastics around the centre console and below the dashboard.
