The Ford Puma, a name that is assigned to two cars, is best known for its versatility and inexpensive nature among the sports car classification.
The first; a stylish, compact coupé model sold throughout Europe around the turn of the millennium. Then in 2019, Ford brought the name back with its brand new crossover SUV, which is set to turn heads in the European market over the coming months and years.
Presenting the Ford Puma
- Available as a 2+2 hatchback coupé, this sports car was exclusive to the European market.
- It came with four engine options, from a 1.4 litre up to a 1.7 litre VCT.

At their peak, there were 52,950 Ford Pumas licensed to drive in the UK, whereas now there are fewer than 5000 Pumas on UK roads.*

Ford Puma insurance groups
Many factors influence your car insurance premium, everything from your driving experience to where you live.
Some insurers use your car’s insurance group when calculating what your premium will be. These are bandings from 1-50, with 1 being the cheapest band. Find out what car insurance groups are and how they are determined.
While we’re still waiting to hear how the new Puma will be banded, those for the original include:
| Model | Insurance Group | Tax Band |
|---|---|---|
| Ford Puma 1.4i 16V 3d | 19 | |
| Ford Puma 1.7i 16V Thunder 3d | 23 | |
| Ford Puma 1.7i 16v 3d | 25 | |
| Ford Puma 1.7 Black 3d | 27 |
Ford Puma tax bands
To be allowed on the road in the UK, all cars must be taxed, where CO2 emissions determine how much is charged.
As most of the original Pumas were registered before 1st March 2001, these would be taxed under the old system, where engine size would determine the amount charged. For 2019/2020, the figures are £160 for engines of 1549cc or smaller, and £265 for any larger than that.
While we try to cover as many drivers as we can, we aren’t able to insure every model of car, and this could include your Ford Puma.
Insurance quotes are offered after considering a variety of factors, including your car’s model and your personal circumstances.
