2022 Ford Puma price and specs

Ford’s entry-level SUV enters 2022 unchanged, apart from a minor shuffling of options.

The 2022 Ford Puma – MY22.25 in Ford parlance – will be available in Australia from March 2022.

The optional panoramic sunroof and a black contrast roof will now be available exclusively on the ST-Line V. These items were previously optional across the range.

The Puma’s main option package, the Park Pack, has also seen its price reduced from $1500 to $990.

UPDATE, 11/01/2022 – Ford has confirmed prices have increased by $350 across the range.

This package, available across the range, adds semi-autonomous parking assist, front parking sensors, adaptive cruise control with stop/go, blind-spot monitoring, lane-centring, evasive steering assistance and rear cross-traffic alert.

The Puma was developed primarily for the European market. Both there and here, it battles the likes of the Nissan Juke and Volkswagen T-Cross.

Fuel Economy

The 2022 Ford Puma uses 5.3L/100km on the combined cycle and has a 42L fuel tank.

The Puma’s EcoBoost engine includes fuel-saving cylinder deactivation, meaning it can shut off one cylinder under low engine load to save fuel.

All models also feature automatic stop/start.
