Ford is gearing up for next year’s Detroit Motor Show with an about production-ready concept version previewing a frequent replacement for the European market Kuga crossover and the North American Escape SUV. According to an inside source discussion to Automotive News Europe, the new compact-sized crossover model will go keen on production in the second half of 2012 as a 2013 model.It appears that Blue Oval hasn’t determined yet if the current names will be dropped in favor of a single moniker, in order to make another global car in the likes of the new Fiesta and Focus models.
Moving production to the U.S. is one more point on Ford’s agenda. It’s probable that the new car will be contrived in Louisville, Kentucky, while the German factory in Saarlouis will remain the European production of the new Focus.
Bernhard Mattes, the man in charge of Ford’s German factories, told Bloomberg this week that the Kuga/Escape successor could hit Deutschland’s showrooms as early as March next year and get to other European markets by the second quarter.
Also in March, Ford will debut a Fiesta-based small minivan concept at the Geneva Auto Show, meant to substitute the current European-market Fusion crossover.
