Chronology
PredecessorFord Escape (South America)

The Ford Territory is a compact crossover SUV built by the JMC-Ford joint venture and was introduced during the 2018 Chengdu Auto Show in September 2018. It is based on the JMC-developed Yusheng S330 which was introduced for the Chinese market in 2016.[3] The Territory went on sale in early 2019, with Ford China classifying it as an entry-level compact SUV in between the EcoSport and Escape. It is exported throughout South America and several left-hand drive Southeast Asian markets.

Despite using the same name as the previous Australian market Ford Territory crossover, there are no relations between the two models.[4][5]

History[]

Pre-sale of the Territory in Brazil began on 7 August 2020, the same day as the compact SUV's digital launch in Argentina. [6] It reached Brazilian Ford dealerships in September.[7] In August 2020, the Ford Territory made its debut in the Philippine market.[8][9] The Territory was also launched in Laos in December 2020.[10]

Pre-sale of the Territory in Chile began in the second half of August 2020, deliveries will arrive by mid-September.[11] The Territory was released in Vietnam on 11 April 2021.[12]

Development[]

Rear view

The Ford Territory is assembled at JMC Ford's plant in Nanchang, China.[13][14] JMC Ford will also introduce the Ford Territory EV-Version to the public in mid-2019. Despite not being offered in the Australian market, Ford Australia had input in the design and development of the new Territory. Ride, handling, and NVH were tuned at Ford's Geelong Proving Grounds in Australia and in Nanjing, China.[15]

The Ford Territory was given a mild refresh in early 2020 prior to its introduction in export markets. Changes to the Territory include a gloss black grille with a new pattern and restyled LED taillights. [16]

The Territory is powered by a 1.5-litre EcoBoost 145 based on the JX4G15 gasoline engine developed by JMC and AVL. Ford of Europe also helped in developing the powerplant.[15] This engine features Miller cycle, and produces 138 hp (140 PS; 103 kW) and 225 N⋅m (22.9 kg⋅m; 166 lb⋅ft) of torque.

In Argentina, the Philippines, Cambodia, Laos, Chile, and Vietnam, The Territory's 1.5 turbo is rated at 141 hp (143 PS; 105 kW) and 225 N⋅m (22.9 kg⋅m; 166 lb⋅ft) of torque,[17][9][18][19] while in Brazil, it is rated at 148 hp (150 PS; 110 kW) and 225 N⋅m (22.9 kg⋅m; 166 lb⋅ft) of torque.[20] A 48V mild-hybrid version is available in China.

Territory EV[]

In August 2019, Ford released an electric version of the Territory in China. It uses a 120 kW electric motor, a liquid-cooled battery of 49.14 kWh and 360 km (220 mi) of NEDC range.[21]

Safety recalls[]

On 19 February 2021, Ford Philippines issued a recall on the Territory due to a faulty electric battery sensor or EBS bracket together with the wiring harness attached to the bracket.[22]
