Ford Endeavour Facelift Launched - New Concept Showcased

Ford India has just unveiled the refreshed 2014 Endeavour at an event in Chandigarh. The flagship SUV from the Ford stable now comes with a more muscular design, better interiors, and some added features.

Exterior changes include new sleek headlamps, a newly designed fog lamp bezel and newly designed 16-inch alloy wheels. The biggest change is the all-new bold front grill and bumper with skid plate that enhances the car's premium appeal. There is also a specially designed blind spot passenger-side mirror to maximize driver visibility and enhances road safety.

The interiors have been refreshed with trim updates and new sporty leather seats, while newly added features include a high-end touch enabled SATNAV entertainment system with Navigation Bluetooth audio control and reverse parking.

Present for the launch of the new Endeavour, Nigel Harris, President Ford India said, “At Ford, we are committed to delighting customers through continuous improvements in our products. Endeavour is a trusted nameplate and holds a special place in Ford India’s product portfolio. It has remained a vehicle of choice for customers who desire a dependable, muscular, rugged yet comfortable and safe SUV. The 2014 Ford Endeavour has been made more stylish, dynamic and comfortable while retaining its core DNA of an all-terrain vehicle.”

The Endeavour is still powered by the 3.0-liter Duratorq TDCi common-rail powertrain delivering 150bhp and 380Nm of torque, but the trusted SUV will now also be sold with a 2.5-liter Duratorq TDCi with a 4X2 manual transmission. The 2014 Ford Endeavour will be sold at an attractive price starting from Rs. 19.8 lakh ex-showoom Delhi.

While this is just the facelifted version of the Endeavour, we may very well be seeing a completely new Endeavour model very soon. Recently, at the China Motor Show in Beijing, Ford unveiled the Everest SUV concept - pictured above is the concept. The car looks production ready and it will most probably be labelled as the Endeavour when it comes to India - sometime soon we hope.
