Is the Ford Kuga suitable for an older driver?

Ford Kuga Zetec 2.0 TDCi 136 4x4. Year 2010. Price €20,995. Mileage 21,000. Is this a good car for a 75-year old man with arthritis? Currently has difficulty getting into his 1007 Volvo S40 (mileage 70,000). Any idea what he should pay for this car in exchange for Volvo?

Thank you for your help
