Ford Everest owner from Dubai. Here we have the 2.3 litre turbo petrol version. Produces just under 300hp. Driven cross country, over rocks, muddy trails, through the desert and must say it's been a joy. I have not done any modifications on it. Car feels solid, and composed. Wheh you're inside the car you feel well insulated and safe. As always the driver involvement is great. Unlike the fortuner which feels sluggish, heavy and old. American and European cars feel more driver focused than Japanese or Korean cars.
Trust Ford for shooting their own foot. They shouldn't have exited at first place. Ever increasing Fortuner price meant there was always a place for this competent SUV.
They just can't bear looses of hundreds of crores and wait for years just to sell one suv in India! A lot goes into running such a huge organisation and very easy to give your vedict out of nowhere
@brendon6535 There is a difference between trimming and exiting. They needed trimming of the product line, narrowing focus on niche segments. They chose the ultimate route. No business-No challenges.
@@brendon6535not just one SUV, remember Figo was once among the best sellers. But they didn’t improve or update anything on it. Should’ve been more competitive n inline with customer needs n wants. Renault case is very similar. They got a winner in Duster but never updated it properly. Lost market to Creta without even competing.
Ever increasing price of fortuner,, what do think a brand who left india and increases the price on parts during maintenance will be able recover it's brand value again in india, no matter what Ford endeavour will never succeed in india market.
The endeavour was always called the Everest globally, I found it interesting they changed it coming to India (especially considering the connection we’d have to the Everest name)
No wonder you find very less Aspires and Figos out for sale in used car market. Very few who opt out for more premium cars sell them. I got myself figo16 petrol and in love with it. Trust me, only the ford owners understand it well.
People are tirelessly waiting for Ford's vehicles to be launched in India. They've realised the value of them after their exit. Pricing should be aggressive like around 30-40 lacs range...if it happens then Fortuner has to pack its bags. Pricing is key since this is not a mass volume segment car.
Man this looks soo good. Being an EcoSport owner this feels like a dream upgrade. But hopes of owning it are low since it'll be a CBU and the pricing will be premium for sure. But what a lovely looking SUV 🥹
Have a endeavour myself 2.2 at got it at 29 lacs in 2017 during gst regime when all car taxes were almost similar,just love it n in no mood to sell it not spent a rupee on repair just changed tyres and battery with regular servicing.ford builds cars so ruggedly n quality is just top notch
Got A 19 Ford Freestyle petrol. Absolutely love the car. Only true enthusiasts know how good ford was. Clocked around 4k on that little beast, no regrets at all. Please Ford you need to make a comeback!! 🗿
Drove a diesel Ecosport for a decade on all sorts of highways on plains, small busy lanes of Delhi NCR, mountain roads and absolutely loved it to bits! Ford Endeavor was always going to be the upgrade before they decided to exit :( Looking forward to Everest launching in India
"Sharing my amazing experience with my 2011 Ford Endeavour! in white colour 90k km, minimal maintenance (₹5k-8k every 15 months), and heavy usage (1500 kg loads, 300 km every 2 months) for 14 years - NO ISSUES! Trust me, Ford Endeavour is a rock-solid choice. If you're considering buying one, don't think twice!"
@KumarSagar yes Nepal, imported from Thailand. Ford is already testing it in India they could let reviewers review it in private track but they won't as release window is far.
I Personally feel Ford Should have never left the Indian Market, Keeping in mind that it's an ever growing market. Simplifying the Model portfolio would have just done enough to limit the damage while looking for a recovery strategy. Knowing their Sells capacity, Investing on a new Plant that to of the size of the Sanand plant was always gonna backfire and it did. Rather than investing on a new plant it would have been better if they had invested in expanding the sales and service and in the development of new models for India. Nonetheless excited for Ford's Return cause they really deserve to be in India!
Being a Ford card owner, I can say I'm a proud owner of Ford car. Not after watching this video. In fact after driving Ford's car for years, What an experience. Its hard to find any new car equvilant to my car. And I feel poor for those who never drove the Ford's car and bought any regular car instead. We lost the wonderful cars from a wonderful company and it's great after sales service.
when the Everest is launched in India, we hope it'll incorporate the attributes detailed by you in this video . . . the Everest 4WD could do with a proper 2.0 in. suspension lift for enhanced off roadability . . .
@@chandrachurniyogi8394I'm planning a two inch lift on my car. However it's already pretty tall for most people to get into. As a stock car, it's tall enough. But I will be raising it by two inches and putting a new set of wheels as I do go offroad and want the piece of mind that extra clearance and bigger wheels will give me.
Would certainly buy it if it comes to India, Ford cars have great driving dynamics, with solid build, solid reliability and at a good price point, had a Ford Fiesta Sxi 1.6 in 07-10, just loved it, later in 2014 I brought a BMW 530D, and my wife often remarked that this Bmw drives like our old Ford Fiesta, really drivewise it was a budget BMW. Felt bad for them when they left India, there may have been many contributing factors for this, the most important being not making cars which we Indians buy. Actually I think we don't want to buy cars that drive well.
I can’t understand how Ford are profitable selling their cars in Nepal where this costs 2cr probably but not sell it in India where there’s a clear demand for it

My money is ready .... bring it on Ford.... i just hope it launches like my current 3.2 endeavour .... that pull is the only requirement i have from this Everest
A big naturally aspirated engine with a manual transmission is what ensures longevity and maintenance-free operation. Hope to see all the variations at the launch!
@Everyoneh8sRohan I guess people with decent amount of exposure to automotive industry. And also because each part has its own name for a reason just like each person have their own specific names...you cannot call someone with a name which isn't theirs
@ this guy has made a review and given it to you for free but you are the jerk that picked out one comment that he may made wrong and pointed it out. Your opinion is welcome but is it adding value? Is it even constructive criticism?
Wish they come back for good. Stay forever. Their cars were damn good. Have top end ecosport with me. Will change after a total 15 years life only. Wish they launch ecosport too. With more features added like wireless charger, wireless android auto apple carplay, rear ac vents and of course sunroof. And that front F O R D LETTERS grill.
And who will buy a Endeavour for a price tag of around ₹1 cr. Govt regulations and norms will hike the price. Fortuner already has v6 models but we don’t get it in india. If that happens endeavour will compete with the likes of x5, gle, q7, and defender😅
and it'll probably be released in the same price range of Fortuner. Endeavor used to cost around 30-35 lakhs before. Now, it'll probably cost 45 lakhs base.
Overall, Elegant Beast 👍 Only that conventional stick antenna on back of the roof spoils the design language. Should have been like in the Range Rover - shark fin type with an integrated RVM cam.
I was always a Ford Endeavour fan. Never a Fortuner fan. I always dreamt of buying one. When Ford exited India I was so sad. I thought that I won't be able to buy a Ford Endeavour ever. P.S.: I earn only 15000 per month.
Completed 5yrs/80k km of my Endeavour 3.2L this year. Told the Missus, I will drive this beast to scrap yard come what may....Unless Everest comes along the way!!
i had to sell my 4 years old ford freestyle cause of getting parts issue in the northeast. i loved the car n it's roughness. n have now to settle for Kia Sonet. i still miss driving that ford built car.
I owned endeavour but as Ford left I had to face so much service issues and had to sell it because of parts issues as all was overpriced there is no guarantee that Ford can keeps its commitment (once a bhaguda will always be a bhaguda)
A comeback should probably be planned like this! Where there are people who would go crazy about the polarized look of futuristic EVs, Ford, with its Everest, is definitely saying, "Hold my beer!" Let them bark before the real beast arrives! 🔥 P.S. An American beauty, for a reason! Thank you, Autocar, for this in-depth review! Would love to buy it someday! ❤
Ah, the previous generation Ford Endeavor spoiled me with its active noise cancellation-a feature so premium, it made us feel like we were driving in a soundproof bubble. Sadly, this new model seems to have removed it. And while the 2-liter engine is doing its best, it’s like comparing a sprinter to a marathon runner-the 3.2-liter engine from the past could run circles around it.
I have few friends from America and they recommended me to upgrade to ford 3.5l ecoboost crate with keeping the turbos ,just waiting for it launch even canceled my booking for fortuner.

I owned a Ford IKON, and the Endeavour is my dream vehicle. Waiting for it.....
i too have a ford ikon 2006 petrol ,, wonderful car but unfortunately loved by rats A LOT
I have the last one 2011 ikon tdci😊
Mahindra just launched xev 9e and then i see endeavour... legend is legend.
No wonder you find very less Aspires and Figos out for sale in used car market. Very few who opt out for more premium cars sell them. I got myself figo16 petrol and in love with it. Trust me, only the ford owners understand it well.
True. I myself bought a Tdci freestyle titanium & 2013 Tdci Figo.
Both are crazy fun & safe cars.
we own an aspire dct, supreme handling but lesser robust build from the previous gen figo tbh + the suspension is fairly stiffer
Am 2008 Fiesta owner still glides smooth
Yup my freestyle is mini rocket bomb.❤
I own a Figo 2016 Petrol. Superb car to drive, can't let go of it for any other car.
Waiting..to see this beast on Indian roads❤
EVEREST ❎ ELEPHANT ✅

yes exactly this. Now all are missing Ford
All are missing ford because they have exited, if it comes back sales will as less as before
Taxes inter the chat
Dont expect less than 70 lakhs, as this would be a import
CBU unit for 40 lakhs? Yeah sure
Cheers🎉, ford should come back with all of its existing portfolio- Endeavour, Ecosport and freestyle
Yes very good point...
Shapur is very lucky charm for ford . He reviewed ecosport in brazil just before its India debut
Man this looks soo good. Being an EcoSport owner this feels like a dream upgrade. But hopes of owning it are low since it'll be a CBU and the pricing will be premium for sure. But what a lovely looking SUV 🥹
Bro.. Same 😭
I think it will be between fortuner & kia carnival price bracket
Will cross 75L on road, not worth that much money. Great car NGL.
@@deadzombee at that price bracket best performance sedan you can get is bmw 340i with good mileage & great performance
@@Short_N_Simple but the maintainence cost is gonna be sky high
Ford come back makes us happy. This Ford Everest is awesome to drive !

If it was reviewed in India I would think it will be launched in India soon but I am not gonna hold my breath and will get hilux or fortuner instead
this is in Kathmandu
@KumarSagar yes Nepal, imported from Thailand. Ford is already testing it in India they could let reviewers review it in private track but they won't as release window is far.

Very well made video.. high quality content ... Good job auto car team
That car looks absolutely stunning 😻
Can't wait to bring it home. And look at the views on this video too no reason to doubt it's popularity among us Indians.
My money is ready .... bring it on Ford.... i just hope it launches like my current 3.2 endeavour .... that pull is the only requirement i have from this Everest
Comparing a 2 liter to a 3.2?
@ the figures of torque and bhp for 2.0 are better than 3.2 also it’s a 2.0 twin turbo engine … I’m just hoping it delivers that pull 3.2 offers
Best one please bring it to India
A big naturally aspirated engine with a manual transmission is what ensures longevity and maintenance-free operation. Hope to see all the variations at the launch!

Hybrid or not what's milage
Beast Everest
Hey AutoCar India how did your shots like the production house amazing quality phenomenal
Any realse date you guys know planning to buy a car with 80l and want to know if this car will come to India and its price
Will the wild track variant be available as well?
and it'll probably be released in the same price range of Fortuner. Endeavor used to cost around 30-35 lakhs before. Now, it'll probably cost 45 lakhs base.

mustang will cost upwards of 1.5 cr now. It was already 80-90L when it was sold here in.
Bronco too
munde sitaraman taxes so much that these cars will be priced very highly.
No one will buy ,the prices are gonna be bonkers

210 BHP, 500 NM torque, 10 gears automatic ! wow wow wow 😃
Is it coming to india ? When ?
I love the physical aircon controls, it would be a nightmare operating the touch screen in rainy weather or with grimy hands
Will there the premium variant with V6 engine??
woww excited!

There is no differential lock?

All the best for ford India
When?
Ah, the previous generation Ford Endeavor spoiled me with its active noise cancellation-a feature so premium, it made us feel like we were driving in a soundproof bubble. Sadly, this new model seems to have removed it. And while the 2-liter engine is doing its best, it’s like comparing a sprinter to a marathon runner-the 3.2-liter engine from the past could run circles around it.
The new engine makes more power and torque but yeah the older one was a 5 cyl which makes it all the more special.
Ye car india me ane wali hay kya ???
I have few friends from America and they recommended me to upgrade to ford 3.5l ecoboost crate with keeping the turbos ,just waiting for it launch even canceled my booking for fortuner.
This is great ...should come now have heard enough hearsays
I will buy this car whenever it is launched back in India
Been worked for Ford for 8yrs, can commit their quality & design are at par with US & EU. These Japanese or Indian cars can't even close to their powerful yet effortless driving dynamics. They give you the feeling of that American Muscle and Gigantic vehicles...A large life worth living.
