The original Ford Puma

The Ford Puma has arrived in Australia as a new crossover vehicle bearing a new nameplate. It’s a familiar badge, however, in the UK and Europe. In 1997, an affordable compact three-door sports car was launched with the name Puma in those markets. It was based on the Mark IV Fiesta city car of the time yet was about as visually similar to Ford’s humble hatchback as the Audi TT of the same year was to its own donor vehicle, the Mark IV Golf.
