AI generated from our expert reviews

Both the Ford Kuga and the OMODA 5 manage motorway journeys well, keeping wind and road noise remarkably quiet in the Ford and pretty well-insulated in the Omoda. Away from faster roads, their road manners diverge. The Kuga feels agile and nimble, with steering that offers a better idea of what the front wheels are doing, whereas the steering in the OMODA 5 is very remote and gives you no real idea what the front wheels are up to. Passenger space is another key difference, as adults in the back of the Kuga will find loads of room for their feet, knees and shoulders, while space in the rear of the OMODA 5 is quite limited. When it comes to carrying luggage and hauling, the Ford Kuga also provides a bigger boot and can tow more than the OMODA 5.
