Rumour: Ford Endeavour facelift launch in early 2019

According to a media report, the Ford Endeavour facelift will be launched in India early next year.

Earlier this year, test mules of the updated Endeavour were spotted in Thailand. The spy images suggest that the Endeavour will receive minor design tweaks, which comprise of a revised front grille and bumper as well as new 6-spoke alloy wheels. On the inside, Ford is expected to introduce a couple of new features like passive keyless entry and push button start.

The 158 BHP, 2.2-litre and the 197 BHP, 3.2-litre diesel engines are likely to be carried over to the Endeavour facelift. However, the engines are likely to get an upgrade to meet the upcoming BS-VI emission norms. The 6-speed automatic transmission is likely to be retained as well.

In international markets, the Endeavour, also known as the Everest, is highly likely to be offered with the new 2.0-litre, 4-cylinder diesel engine available in single or twin-turbo configurations. The twin-turbo engine offered on the Ranger Raptor produces 211 BHP and 500 Nm of torque. It comes paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission.
