    I love the child-like wonder of Henry’s videos. There’s nothing splashy or “eye-catching” about the videography or bombastic about the presentation. It’s just pleasant and quirky while being accessible and beautiful.
    As always Henry, never change. :)

      @@danielleroux6490 There's zero chance that this small car would come here. Ford doesn't understand how much money Mini makes off a somewhat inferior product (Mini is super hard to repair). Ford's problem is image. People associate small Fords with cheap crap. So they don't think they can market it effectively. What they should do is create another sublabel like Bronco, and bring in hot cars like the Ranger Raptor, and the Puma St, and create a high end enthusiast brand, They use horse names like Bronco, Mustang, so maybe Pony or maybe just call it Raptor. Then you have 3 cars to start with, the big Raptor, Raptor Jr, and Velociraptor for the Puma. And put in the Shelby stuff too in this mix. They have to realize that they have 3 segments: SUV, Truck and Enthusiast. The upcoming Bronco is a super win for Ford; the best original design from Ford in over 30 years. It's going to be a smash hit. But this car would be a lot of fun for urban enthusiasts who need a small car.

      @@edwarddejong8025 Yes! And then they could bring the new Fiesta ST and Focus ST and just rename / rebadge them to match the 'Enthusiast' sublabel they've created. Brilliant! Which would you choose, the Puma ST, the Fiesta ST or the Focus ST? Hmmm....it would be so nice to have the choice. I'd have to drive each one to decide!

    If someone told me "I'm buying a Ford Puma ST", I think I'd probably shrug. It's just another warmed up SUV.
    It has nothing to do with the original Puma; and it's heavier, slower, more expensive and thirstier than the Fiesta it's based on while offering barely any more room.
    It is utterly, completely pointless.

      It's actually even worse cos it's not a proper SUV, it's a silly little crossover, which I think is probably the stupidest type of vehicle.

    Wasn't the original Puma designed by Ian Callum? Wonder what else he did...
    Great review, although when I seen snow it reminded me more of another of your videos from the USA...

    How do they measure boot capacity? I assume they look at all 3 dimensions and height plays a part? In that case is the boot in the puma really bigger than a focus or is it just taller? A taller boot isn't really a lot of use in the real world.

    How the mighty have fallen. For me, I used to love Ford but, compared to the past cars of the past these new cars are just underwhelming and it's sad to see. I feel the loss of the Focus RS which Ford said they will not be making shows that the greats have gone and these future cars just don't live up to the Ford Performance name. It's a shame to see.
