My nieces and nephew love the look of this car, they thought it was smiling at them when they looked at. That’s thanks to the curve of the grille and the design of the headlights. The review model features the 'Desert Island Blue' paint option for $650 which I think is one of the best colours, but there’s quite a few to choose from.
The LED daytime running lights have been designed to resemble those on the Ford GT supercar and they make sure the car stands out from the pack. The ST Line matt black grille and front and rear aprons give it a distinctive look, along with the integrated spoiler. Plus you get the 17-inch alloy wheels. But more importantly you get the sports suspension which adds to the overall comfort of the car.
Inside the car feels modern and the designers have packed quite a lot into its small space. The ST Line gets metal pedal covers and red stitching along the seats. Even the entry model gets the synthetic leather gearshift, hand brake and flat-bottomed steering wheel, which feels good while you’re driving.
Despite the small size of the car, every millimetre has been used well, and the design feels fresh thanks to the dials and curved lines that tie the whole personality of the Puma together. Even though it still has the handbrake and gearshift which could make it feel dated, the rest of the features, including the tech, help give it a more modern feel, but that doesn't carry through to the back seats.
