Rumour: Ford Endeavour is coming back in 2025

Ford has filed a design patent for the new-gen Endeavour in India.

According to a media report, Ford plans to resume sales in India and spearheading the brand’s return is likely to be the Endeavour.

Ford has filed a design patent for the new-gen Endeavour in India, which has led to speculations about the SUV’s return to the Indian market. It made its global debut in 2022 and is currently sold in Thailand as the Everest.

Reports suggest that Ford plans to assemble the Endeavour at its Chennai plant after the company cancelled its plans to sell the factory to the JSW Group last month. That being said, Ford might also opt to import the initial lot of SUVs as CBUs, while it prepares its assembly line for production. If all goes to plan, we might see the Endeavour go on sale in 2025.

The Ford Endeavour shares its underpinnings with the Ranger pickup. It features a muscular-looking front end with a set of LED headlights and C-shaped LED daytime running lights.

Inside, the SUV gets a 12-inch touchscreen infotainment system and a 12.4-inch digital instrument cluster. It is also equipped with several advanced safety aids, including Pre-Collision Assist, Intersection Assist, lane keep assist, adaptive cruise control and hands-free parking, among others.

The current-gen Ford Endeavour is offered with a 2.0-litre diesel engine in two states of tune and a 3.0-litre V6 turbo diesel. Transmission options include a 6-speed manual and a 10-speed automatic.
