Endeavour 2.5L XLT 4×2

Ford Endeavour is an SUV, available in both 2-wheel and 4-wheel drives. It is powered by 2.5L inter-cooled turbo diesel that delivers maximum power of 112ps/3500. Ford Endeavour’s high ride height, balanced wheel well openings, and substantial proportions below the body side moldings lend it an impressive appearance. It is quite spacious and can seat seven passengers comfortably with easy in-and-out access to the third row seats.

Ford Endeavour is equipped with all the necessary safety features such as dual airbags for driver and passenger, individual seat belts in all seating positions, 4-wheel anti-lock brake system, a high visibility “command” driving position, side-door intrusion beams, collapsible steering column, child-proof rear door locks, and fuel tank shields.

This vehicle has had its origins from the Mazda Fighter and or the Ford Ranger, which is built for the Southeast Asian markets at the Ford-Mazda JV plant at the Thai port city of Rayong. Its underpinnings remain very much that of a pick-up truck while its engine is a Mazda derived unit used for its low cost of manufacture coupled with the requirements of these markets in terms of emission norms, fuel efficiency and most of all - affordability. A Hiroshima based design team worked to develop the Endeavour aqua Everest and give it the qualities desired by the developing markets. As we finally get to put the Endeavour through the OVERDRIVE road test, we discover all the areas where the engineering team has been able to get the Endeavour up to expectations and those areas, which leave something to be desired still.

Interior Design

Endeavour’s interior gives an impression of spaciousness and luxury. It seats seven passengers comfortably with easy in-and-out access to the third row seats. Its unique dual control air-conditioning system comes with two additional sets of vents for the rear seat to ensure comfort for the centre and rear seat passengers. The interior incorporates many small “surprise and delight” features such as individual cup-holders, creative stowage room, and front seat back map pockets equipped with smaller cell-phone pockets. Overall, the effect is one of thoughtful craftsmanship.

Safety Features

Endeavour is designed to meet all applicable local regulations, as well as additional Ford safety guidelines. Features include dual airbags for driver and passenger, individual seat belts in all seating positions, 4-wheel anti-lock brake system, a high visibility “command” driving position, side-door intrusion beams, collapsible steering column, child-proof rear door locks, and fuel tank shields, among others.
