Ford Puma Gen-E (2025 onwards) | Expert Rating

Summary

The Ford Puma Gen-E is an electric version of the petrol-powered Ford Puma, which has been the UK’s best-selling new car for the last two years, the Ford Puma.

Set to arrive in Uk showrooms before the summer of 2025, the Puma Gen-E is expected to be a very important model for Ford in the UK. Early previews suggest that the car is a sensible, versatile, and efficient electric car choice, which isn’t exactly groundbreaking but has a fairly competitive price tag.

This page will be updated when UK reviewers get their hands on the car in the following months. Once we can collect further data, like the car’s Euro NCAP safety rating and running cost data, we will give the Puma Gen-E an Expert Rating score. Keep checking back for the latest updates.

“The Ford Puma Gen-E looks just like the regular Puma, yet has an all-electric powertrain and 233 miles of range. But it might be too little too late.”

“Despite being fun to drive and surprisingly practical, the Ford Puma Gen-E feels a little late to the game in terms of electric ability.”

“The Ford Puma Gen-E will go down well with the thousands of Puma and Fiesta buyers on a return PCP agreement wanting to dabble in the world of EVs with a product they know and feel comfortable with. But far better options are available elsewhere for not a lot more money – those with longer ranges and far better interiors. The Puma’s cabin alone would make me want to look in the direction of a Skoda Elroq.”

“The electric Ford Puma Gen-E builds on everything we like about the standard Puma, but it feels a bit late to the EV party.”

“The Ford Puma Gen-E is an EV with spirit. I could even go so far as to say it’s a bit of a ‘driver’s’ small electric car, which could make it a genuine rival to the Renault 5 E-Tech.”

Honest John

Model reviewed: Range overview
“The Ford Puma Gen-E looks decent value, should handle well and offers quick recharge times. But the driving range is shorter than most rivals, and it’s underwhelming considering the time Ford’s had.”

The Independent

Model reviewed: Range overview
“A safe electric transition for Puma fans, the Gen-E has familiar appeal and lots of storage, though the battery’s range feels a step behind the best EV rivals.”
