Puma’s seductive styling belies unprecedented compact crossover practicality, supported by innovative rear stowage solutions that offer practical solutions to everyday storage problems. Puma delivers best-in-class uncompromised load space and rear luggage space of 456 litres. A flexible load compartment can comfortably accommodate a box 112 cm long, 97 cm wide and 43 cm high with the second row of seats folded flat.
Developed to meet and exceed customer requirements for practical luggage space, the Ford MegaBox provides a deep, versatile storage space that is capable of comfortably accommodating two golf bags in an upright position.
The storage solution offers a capacity of 80 litres in a space 763 mm wide, 752 mm long and 305 mm deep, which can house unstable items up to approximately 115 cm tall – such as houseplants – in an upright position. Alternatively, with the lid down, the space can be used to conceal dirty sports equipment or muddy Wellington boots. The synthetic lining and drain plug in the bottom of the Ford Megabox makes it easy to clean with water.
For even greater versatility, the Puma’s boot floor can be easily adjusted using just one hand to suit load requirements, and to hold one of three positions in the cargo area:
In the lowest position, the maximum storage volume available while concealing the Ford MegaBox is delivered
In the high position, the area underneath increases to create a cargo floor that is level with the fold-flat second-row seats
Removed, the floor can be securely stored vertically against the back of the second-row seats for full 456-litre capacity
The adjustable boot floor features a honeycomb structure inspired by the hexagon-shaped cells used in the construction of high-strength components for jet planes and supercars, for durability and strength.
Loading the Puma is made even easier with Ford’s segment-first hands-free tailgate technology. The system allows access to the boot space even with arms full of groceries, kids or sports equipment, using a simple kicking motion under the rear bumper.
The Puma tailgate also features an innovative incorporated parcel shelf solution – solving the challenge of what to do with the parcel shelf when loading, unloading and carrying large items. The tailgate mounted luggage cover moves in unison with the tailgate and removes the need for side supports, ensuring unhindered access to the rear load area. The flexible luggage cover easily moulds itself around bulky items.
“Throughout the development process, our goal was to deliver an unprecedented degree of practicality in a compact and efficient package,” said Norbert Steffens, Puma chief programme engineer. “Puma’s unique Ford MegaBox and parcel shelf are examples of the innovative thinking that helped us deliver flexibility without compromising on style.”

Here is what the reviews say about the boot space in the Ford Puma:
You can fit six carry-on sized cases in the main boot compartment – one fewer than you’ll squeeze in a Kamiq or T-Roc – but the Puma has a trick up its sleeve. Lift up its boot floor and you’ll find a large well that can take a further two cases.'
