Question 2

What are common problems with a 2024 Ford Puma in NZ?

Accepted Answer

1.0 EcoBoost wet belt (mHEV); 7-speed DCT behaviour; ST hard-use wear; 12-volt mild-hybrid battery. Check the year guide for detail and inspect these on any car you are considering.

Question 3

What should I check when buying a used 2024 Ford Puma in NZ?

Accepted Answer

Confirm ST-Line mHEV vs ST — power, ride and price are different. Test DCT when cold and in traffic; scan for gearbox codes if possible. Ask for wet-belt/oil-spec servicing at Ford or a 1.0 specialist. ST: tyre date stamps, brake thickness, unmodified exhaust. Cycle driver assists; check MegaBox for water. Request as much service history as possible — regular servicing matters more than promises from the seller. Run a PPSR check and review WOF history before buying. Compare condition and service records across listings — the best-value example is often the best-kept one, not the cheapest.

Question 4

Is the 2024 Ford Puma a good used buy in New Zealand?

Accepted Answer

The 2024 Ford Puma in NZ is the mild-hybrid compact crossover. ST-Line uses the 1.0 EcoBoost mHEV (92kW / 210Nm with electric assist) and the ST uses a higher-output 1.0 mHEV (125kW / 248Nm), both with a seven-speed DCT and FWD. There is still no NZ-sold Puma Gen-E electric in this window.
