Last month, we headed to Riyadh Saudi Arabia as guests of Ford Middle East to drive the all-new Ford Territory, a small SUV that combines a modern and striking look, ample cabin space, and filled with smart, safe technologies perfect for young professionals and small, busy families.
The all-new Territory was put through rigorous and extensive tests on diverse terrains for the Middle East region to confirm that its performance, comfort, and design would suit conditions in the region. It did not disappoint.
The Ford DNA is visible externally with an integrated grille and signature light – balanced with lower graphics, full LED lighting, which drives the focal point higher and communicates purpose, stability, and capability.
The headlamps show off a unique design, with daytime running LED lights incorporated with a strong horizontal grille bar, which adds to the eye-catching appearance. From front to back, a strong shoulder line front to back enhances the power and progressive energy of the all-new Territory’s contemporary design language.
The interior provides a convenient and sophisticated space. The cabin is designed with vigorous and well-matched color arrays while comfort and function are maximized through Premium Leather seats, with a 10-way adjustable ergonomic driver’s seat.
The all-new Ford Territory is equipped with an EcoBoost 1.8L engine on all versions, delivering 320Nm of max torque at 1,500-3,500rpm using moderate fuel and impressive power up to 190 hp (187 bhp).
It comes with an advanced dual clutch Seven-Speed automatic transmission and a suite of driver-assist technologies that offer maximum safety and enhance customers’ driving experiences. The vehicle enables customers to drive with confidence by offering an impressive array of safety features available in Ford Co-Pilot.
The center area in the all-new Ford Territory comes with a large 12-inch central touchscreen to support the driver with easier command over all functions while ensuring they remain focused on the road.
Other premium features that support drivers include wireless, USB type-C, and type-A charging; wireless smartphone connectivity through Apple Carplay and Android Auto.
Ford Middle East is offering the all-new Ford Territory in Ambiente, Trend and Titanium variants, with a host of features and a suite of driver-assist technologies to offer maximum safety for all passengers.
