Looks like Ford is at a loss to know what to do about FRAP, NG Mustang is part of the UAW agreement but what else there? There's a rumor going around MAP that somehow we are getting NG Mustang after Bronco launches but I'm calling BS on that one, I just don't see how it's physically possible. I think people confused it with the stamping work for it that we are supposed to be getting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just looking at the Pricing structure of Ford in UK, there isn't much room between each model...and I don't Ford has mentioned they are doing a gas only Puma So in the UK, the Puma has a lower base price than Focus!

It is just a jacked up Fiesta, so yes the Puma is priced lower then the Focus line up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that is so, selling it here for less than the Focus would cost, should see some good sales numbers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akirby Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 Unless I'm looking at the wrong chart, it's 100 quid less than Focus starting price. I wouldn't really call that cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't really call that cheaper. Ford UK site on its build and price is showing the gas engine only but Titanium trim and above. Not sure if they are not going to sell the lower spec'd Zetec. Also the Titanium price which is just 100 quid lower, is being compared to a base base Focus Zetec spec. Here they are selling the base Puma for a couple thousand euros compared to the base Focus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpd80 Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 You can't directly compare those prices to the US showroom, the best indicator of that is the price gaps between Ecosport, Puma and Focus.,. every single one of them is way more expensive than a base US Focus was. The lowest price of the three is Ecosport at around $24,000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
