These are the specs we know about the Upcoming Cars in 2011 Ford Kuga at this moment:

Ford Kuga

Does the new Ford Kuga spell the end of the Escape? It's not entirely likely, but the new concept car from Ford, which was on display at the 2007 Frankfurt Motor Show, confirms that Ford Europe is working on a style-driven compact crossover model.

Along with the new Mondeo, S-Max and other contemporary passenger vehicles, Ford of Europe is becoming a real trend setter, and the new Kuga which is slated for production in early 2008 is another sign of the marque's proactive approach to new vehicle design.

Ford Europe states that the show car will be a "preview model of the production vehicle", meaning the overall design is in place, but the huge wheels, show car interior and other minor cues will be omitted from the 2008 production version.
