In a move that has stirred up the automotive scene in India, Ford is gearing up for a triumphant comeback with the launch of three new models by the end of this year. Speculations have been rife about Ford’s intentions, especially after the brand withdrew its plans to sell its Maraimalai Nagar plant to JSW Group. Adding fuel to the fire, sightings of the new Endeavour and Ranger have only fueled the anticipation further. Let’s delve into the details of what Ford has in store for Indian consumers.
Ford Mustang Mach-E
One of the most exciting prospects in Ford’s lineup for India is the Mustang Mach-E. Rumor has it that Ford might opt for the Completely Built-Up (CBU) route for the Mach-E’s entry into the Indian market. This model, globally renowned for its electrifying performance, offers various battery configurations, ranging from 72 kWh to 91 kWh, with options for rear-wheel and all-wheel drive.

With a claimed range of up to 600 km on a single charge, the Mach-E promises to redefine the electric driving experience in India. If launched, it is poised to take on formidable competitors like the Audi Q8 e-tron and Mercedes EQE.
New Ford Ranger
Another eagerly awaited addition to Ford’s Indian portfolio is the new Ranger. Sharing its platform with the latest Endeavour, the Ranger is expected to offer a similar engine lineup. Enthusiasts can look forward to a choice between a 2.3L engine generating 270 horsepower and a larger 2.7L turbo V6 delivering an impressive 315 horsepower.
Equipped with a sophisticated ten-speed automatic transmission, the Ranger will be available in both 2WD and 4WD variants, catering to diverse driving preferences. Its arrival is sure to shake up the segment, challenging contenders like the Toyota Hilux and Isuzu D-Max V-Cross.
New Ford Endeavour
Completing Ford’s triumvirate of launches is the new Endeavour, set to redefine the SUV landscape in India. Boasting a plethora of advanced safety and assistive features, the third-generation Endeavour promises a superior driving experience compared to its predecessor.
With design cues borrowed from the iconic F-150 pickup, the new-gen Endeavour exudes rugged elegance. Its feature-rich interior, highlighted by a 12-inch portrait-oriented touchscreen infotainment system and a fully digital instrument console, offers unparalleled comfort and convenience. Competing against stalwarts like the Toyota Fortuner, MG Gloster, and Isuzu MU-X, the new Endeavour is poised to make a bold statement in the Indian market.
Conclusion
With the impending launch of the Mustang Mach-E, new Ranger, and new Endeavour, Ford is all set to make a grand re-entry into the Indian automotive landscape. Offering a compelling blend of performance, innovation, and style, these models are poised to captivate the hearts of Indian consumers.
