2011 Ford Vertrek

The UK’s Ford Kuga is on its way to its second generation, but before the curtains get drawn back on that model, Ford has decided to preview the future generation crossover (the 2013 Escape in our neck of the woods) with the new Vertrek concept at the Detroit Auto Show. The Vertek (Dutch for "departure") was built on Ford’s global C-segment platform, which is the same platform used on models like the Focus, the C-Max, and, of course, the Kuga.
"Vertrek concept is a no-compromise solution we feel utility vehicle customers will embrace around the world," said Derrick Kuzak, Ford group vice president of Global Product Development. "It is a revolution compared to what is typically seen in this segment in North America and is a stylish evolution compared with products outside North America. This new design is sleeker and more fuel efficient and delivers the capability, including people and cargo volume, customers demand globally."
