2019 Ford Endeavour – Why Should you buy?

The big daddy of SUVs, the new Ford Endeavour has finally been launched in India with a host of feature upgrades. The company has dropped the Trend variant and has introduced the new model in two trims – Titanium and Titanium+. This time around, Ford has also introduced the manual option in the 2.2-litre engine with a 4x2 configuration. Read below to find out more on the highs and lows of the new Endeavour –

What’s good about it?

Ford has introduced the new Endeavour with standard features in the form of six airbags (seven airbags in Titanium+), SYNC3 infotainment system, ABS with EBD, stability assist, hill start assist, Power driver’s seat and leather upholstery. This time around, the vehicle is offered with hands-free power liftgate which opens and closes the liftgate with just a trigger of a sensor by the leg of the user. Least said the Titanium+ comes with a 4x4 terrain management system, semi-automatic parallel park assist, power folding third-row seat and more.

What’s not so good?

Although the new Endeavour has a masculine bodyline, there are just a few changes over its predecessor. The panoramic sunroof, front parking sensor and driver knee airbag is limited to the top spec variant.

Best variant to buy?

The top spec Titanium+ is a good option considering the fact that it offers a bigger 3.2-litre diesel engine with a 4x4 terrain management system. The SUV gets seven airbags including driver knee airbag, semi-automatic parallel park assist, power folding third-row seat and eight-way power adjustable front passenger seat with lumbar support.
