The automotive scene has been changing rapidly in the recent years.
On one hand you have stricter emission norms, on the other hand you have the advent of electric vehicles. Then you have the countless number of pretend SUVs washing over Indian roads. In uncertain times like these, when almost everything seems to be changing, it is good to see something holding on to the legacy of automotive spirit. Ford’s highly successful Endeavour (pun intended) is one such light in the dark. The SUV has been a hit amongst people who want something that looks and acts the part of a thoroughbred off-roader. So when Ford decided to give the vehicle a facelift in 2019 they did not mess with the formula too much. But was that a smart move?
DESIGN AND STYLING
Just like the Figo, if you saw the new Endeavour coming your way, chances are that you would not be able to judge if it is the new one or the old. Changes include a new grille in the front that has three slimmer horizontal slats. The fog lamps get a black bezel around them and the skid plate design has been changed slightly. Our unit was bathed in the new colour. The wheels of the Endeavour now come with newly designed diamond cut alloys that looks brawny. Though, we preferred the previous design a little more.
