Ford hikes prices of Endeavour Titanium variants by Rs.50,000

Prices of the new Ford Endeavour have been hiked in India from immediate effect. Prices of both the Titanium trims (2.2L and 3.2L) have been upped by Rs. 50,000. This is the second price increase for the Endeavour. Prices were earlier increased in March this year, due to a 4% hike in excise duty in the 2016-17 Union Budget.

After the recent increase of Rs. 50,000, the 2.2L 4x2 AT Titanium costs Rs. 27,50,800 while the 3.2L 4x4 AT Titanium is now priced at Rs. 29,76,800.

Due to the above price hike and the earlier increase in excise duty, the Endeavour prices have gone up in the range of Rs. 1.12 lakh to Rs. 1.62 lakh since its launch in January 2016. The 2.2L 4x2 MT Trend variant of the new Endeavour now costs Rs. 25,00,800, up from its launch price of Rs. 23,63,999. It has thus suffered a hike of Rs. 1,36,801. An identical price hike of Rs. 1,11,800 has been given to the Trend trims of the 2.2L 4x2 AT, 2.2L 4x4 MT and 3.2L 4x4 AT, which are now respectively priced at Rs. 25,50,800, Rs. 26,60,800, and Rs. 27,65,800. The 2.2L 4x2 AT Titanium is priced at Rs. 27,50,800, after a price rise of Rs. 1,36,800. The biggest hike of Rs. 1,61,800 has been given to the top end 3.2L 4x4 AT Titanium variant, which is now priced at Rs. 29,76,800.

Ford launched the Endeavour earlier this year with two engine options: a 2.2-litre diesel that develops 158 BHP and 385 Nm of torque, and a 3.2-litre diesel rated at 197 BHP and 470 Nm of torque. The smaller engine is available with two transmission options (a 6-speed manual and a 6-speed automatic), while the 3.2-litre variants are offered with only the automatic transmission.
