Yep, but a lot of people are either ignorant of the voice control or are reluctant to use it for some reason.

Called in the local Ford dealership for info on the upcoming face-lift Puma. No magnetic grey paint, no opening the electric tailgate with your foot, no Vignale. All paint options £800 except white. DAP is £950, winter pack £350, car tax/number plates £280. Massage front seats no longer available nor mud flaps. For an st line x 155 auto the total comes out at £32,890. That's before any negotiated discount. Dealers should have a demo model by the end of April and factory orders delivered around September. I might check out the demo model which will be top spec. In the meantime I'm actively searching other makes and models.

Yes, got the same sort of info from my dealer. Told him I wouldn't be bothering with another Puma, they are trying to sell me a Mustang Mach-e they've had in for a while..
