Like most good looking American- and in this case Ford- cars, you won't be getting this one. It's reserved for the overseas crew... European cats this time around, although I wouldn't be surprised if it makes its way to Australia too. <!--more-->

But in case you were wondering, it's like their version of our Escape. It's called the Kuga. It features a 2.0L 134hp turbo diesel engine mated to a 6speed manual and either a FWD or AWD powertrain. What you see here is what the production car will look like- right down to the 19" wheels. The car will compete with the Toyota Rav 4 and Nissan Murano/Rogue when it comes out early next year.
