Deal of the day: why I think this great looking little SUV should be added to your shopping list, with over £3,000 off

Right, let’s talk about the Ford Puma, as it’s actually pretty good.

I’ve driven a lot of cars over the years, and the Puma punches well above its weight. It’s got eye-catching looks, comes loaded with kit, and its large boot is impressively versatile. And right now, there’s a cracking deal available that actually makes sense – you don’t see that every day.

Remember, you can buy a brand new or used car right here on Carwow. And you can also sell your car, too. We’re here to help you through every step of your car-changing journey.

Here’s the deal I’ve come across – over £3,000 off*

The Ford Puma usually starts around £25,505, but you can get it through Carwow from £24,235. The biggest savings are on the Sound Edition version, with £3,006 off at the time of writing.

This deal is compelling because it pairs affordability with advanced features. The Puma comes with an Ecoboost Hybrid engine, automatic transmission, and front-wheel drive, offering a smooth and efficient drive. Inside, a full digital 12.8-inch instrument cluster adds a modern touch, while the Winter Pack and Comfort Pack with a power lift tailgate enhance safety and convenience.

Combined with the Carwow discount, this makes the Puma a stylish, practical, and great-value compact SUV.

But why consider the Ford Puma?

The Ford Puma is a compact SUV that somehow manages to look good without trying too hard. Curvy bodywork, pumped-up wheel arches on the ST-Line, and a confident shoulder line give it a sporty stance, making it feel more exciting than your average small SUV.

Inside, it’s modern enough to feel techy with a big touchscreen and a digital driver display. There’s plenty of clever storage, including a boot that’s surprisingly big for a car this size, and a little underfloor compartment for muddy boots – or an icebox if you’re feeling fancy. The plastics aren’t premium, but it’s practical and works well for everyday life.

Under the bonnet, the Puma runs on a 1.0-litre mild-hybrid engine. Light steering and responsive brakes make it brilliant in town, while the ST-Line’s sporty suspension makes twisty roads a lot of fun. It’s not perfect on rough surfaces, but it’s playful, practical, and a genuinely enjoyable little SUV.

Alternatives to the Ford Puma

There are plenty of other options for you to have a look at:

• Peugeot 2008: This has bold styling and a lovely interior, but the Puma has much more boot space and is more versatile.

• Volkswagen T-Cross: Prioritises practicality with a spacious cabin and user-friendly tech, though it may not offer the same level of driving excitement as the Puma.

• Toyota Yaris Cross: Excels in fuel efficiency and reliability, offering a comfortable drive, but its firm suspension may not be as engaging on twisty roads compared to the Puma.

I’ve been a motoring journalist for more than two decades, testing and reviewing a huge variety of cars, so I know what makes a deal genuinely good versus what just looks good on paper. My experience helps me spot value, practicality, and hidden extras that matter most.
