Our Verdict
A strong recommendation for those seekin
The primary point for negotiation and inspection is the front tyre condition. The MOT history from October 2025 and May 2026 both highlight that the front tyres were worn close to the legal limit, specifically on the inner edges. This pattern strongly suggests a wheel alignment or tracking issue that may not have been corrected between tests.
Ensure you verify the full service history to confirm that the hybrid system and CVT transmission have been maintained according to manufacturer schedules. Given the age of the vehicle, check that the manufacturer warranty is still active or transferable to the new owner.
The 2.5L hybrid engine is designed for improved urban efficiency and lower emissions, falling under the Euro 6 AP standard. Insurance costs will be influenced by the ST-Line X trim and the engine size, while road tax is generally lower for hybrid vehicles of this type.
Typical maintenance for this model includes hybrid-specific system checks and standard consumables. Estimated annual running costs, including fuel, tax, insurance, and routine servicing, are likely to fall between £1,200 and £1,600.
Carefully inspect the tread of both front tyres. The May 2026 MOT recorded tyres worn close to the legal limit on the edges, following a similar record in October 2025 where the inner edges were described as 'bald'. This indicates a persistent alignment problem that needs professional rectification.
Beyond the tyres, check the condition of the white paintwork for any stone chips or scuffs. As this is a hybrid model, ensure there are no warning lights on the dashboard related to the HEV system and that the transition between electric and petrol power is smooth during a test drive.
This 2022 white Ford Kuga ST-Line X Edition HEV has covered 22,760 miles, which is below the typical UK average for its age. It has passed its last two MOT tests, though both records contain advisories regarding front tyre wear. The vehicle features a 2.5L hybrid powertrain and a high-specification trim level.
Aggregate reliability data for this specific Kuga trim is not available, but the vehicle's individual record shows no MOT failures to date.
