Ford Philippines revealed seven reasons why the Territory crossover sport utility vehicle (SUV) would make for a good car for the Filipino buyer.
Launched in April last year, the Ford Territory has earned a steady following among young drivers and small families. Here are a few things that make it a good pick for most families and young individuals, per the local arm of the Blue Oval brand.
The Ford Territory comes packed with plenty of features that aim to ensure the safety of the driver and passengers while on the road.
Below are a few samples of the nameplate’s active and passive safety technologies:
Ford Territory is ready to remain cool despite sweltering temperatures outside.
According to Ford, both the Titanium and Titanium X variants are fitted with dual-zone automatic air conditioning that adjusts to keep passengers comfortable even when stuck in traffic under the scorching sun.
Moreover, the crossover is equipped with a particulate matter 2.5 air cabin filter, which adds an extra layer of protection for its occupants against dust and allergens.
Under the hood of the Ford Territory is a 1.5-liter Ecoboost engine that produces 157 horsepower with 248 Newton-meters of torque. The powerplant is paired with a seven-speed automatic transmission with a wet-type dual-clutch engagement system to deliver quick acceleration on open expressways with improved fuel efficiency.
The Ford Territory also has an auto-start stop function, which helps keep more in its tank during stop-and-go traffic.
The Ford Territory also packs comfort and convenience features that make it an ideal vehicle to drive on busy city roads.
These features include wireless charging, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, as well as perforated and ventilated leather seats.
Further making the Ford Territory a solid option for Filipino carbuyers are the features that make it a capable vehicle.
To begin with, the Ford Territory has a high ground clearance of 190 millimeters, which gives its owners peace of mind during mild floods as well as when going through roads laden with potholes. It also gets four selectable drive modes: Eco, Normal, Sport, and Mountain — giving drivers the ability to tailor their driving experience across a range of situations.
Customers purchasing the Ford Territory will receive a complimentary Peace of Mind service package that includes free inspection, which can be availed within two months or 2,000 kilometers — whichever comes first. Also included are two free labor on periodic maintenance schedule services.
The abovementioned benefits are offered on top of the five-year warranty that comes with every purchase of the Ford Territory. This way, the company ensures more adventures and a worry-free ownership experience for its would-be owners.
Ford is offering the Territory is offered with special deals, which include a P13,000 low monthly fee or P99,000 all-in low down payment.
Buyers can also visit any Ford dealership to get more information on the available five-year scheduled service plan with a Territory purchase.
“The Ford Territory was built for young and connected individuals and starting families. Filipino customers will find that its combination of modern design and advanced features deliver on the day-to-day driving conditions they will encounter on our roads,” Ford Philippines Managing Director Mike Breen noted.
