This is the only best proper test report of this vechicle, I would say, after watching several TD videos (Endeavours as well as Everest). No one including Paul Mari have done this extensive off-road test. You have done a wonderful job and Hats off to you sir! I am sure this is the TD which would help the buyer to get convinced more buying this vechicle. :-) Thank you.
it was an awesome and informative review as always sir. One of the first reviews out there and that too as precise and unbiased as it can get. Keep up the good work sir.
a detailed and valued presentation,all points covered accordingly but no mention of ford noise cancelling microphones and the ford park asist......the negatives are the tone you speak in and can this voice be a little louder.......overall a good presentation.
Thank You, yes the audio quality was poor in some sections and apologies for that. After this video i had invested in a good collar mike which solved the issue (You can check my Jaguar XE review to feel the difference)
great review (Y). you surely have put in alot of effort and it shows. the detail to this review is impressive. we can read everything that could be known through teambhp and now your reviews are something we will look forward to. all the best. :)
Your reviews are getting better and better. The new Endeavour will do to the Fortuner what the Fortuner did to the Old Endeavour :p .Waiting for your D-Max V-Cross review bro! :)
+Hash Slinging Slasher - Thanks, interesting comment * i agree to your statement. Isuzu DMAX Cross ? Il try to do that if i can ... let the press cars come out.
have been following your videos consistently from the day I came to know about it on teamBHP. Sir I hope u start doing video reviews on behalf of teambhp. keep up the good work-----+from a to be teambhpian to a senior teambhpian:)
Very good review man. initially when u started off i tgt u seemed to amateurish and was thnkn of switchin' over(to be honest)... but u picked up well... u started speaking well.. and the offroad theoretical presentation was the best part..! It really made me undestand the modes on the Endeavour. Appreciate your efforts and u can definitely be a sought-after car reviewer in India !!! Way to go maite. Gonna keep u subscribed.
Got my 3.2 endeavour remapped from autopsyche. Low rpm lag almost gone & mid range has become even stronger. Haven't been able to get roads to go above 150 km/hr
Awesome . watching your review is really entertaining. unlike the ones who come and read the specs and show the car in different lame angles :/ . greatly infromative review. so this is definitely better than the fortuner, now we know. a lot of effort put in your videos. why do you have so little subscribers ! did you just start recently ? I hope you get more credit ! great work and good luck
Hey, Thanks again for your motivating comments. Yes the channel is still young still and this is just my passion & my way of contributing/giving back to the automotive community to help people in their buy decisions. But, many more things lined up for the coming weeks.
Hi there!! great video but this has caused more than enough confusion to me right now and the reason is I have booked an obsidian black GL and haven't bothered to even look at cars in 40 lakh price range. now that the ford endeavour has launched do you think I should go get it and save myself 60+ lakhs. Or do you think the premium interior quality, the road presence or the sheer amount space available in gl is worth the splurge. the car will be chauffeur driven so I really don't care about engine specs. it just needs to cruise at speeds 120-140 kmph comfortably. I know I shouldn't be comparing these cars but that's the Indian automotive scene right now. confusing as hell.
+deathrider45 - The GL is surely a full size SUV. I had the GL in L.A. for a week & it was the 450 which is a V8 petrol & boy it was fun. BUT the endeavour is truly a more capable OFF ROADER than the GL and i tell you what it strangely feels like a big German SUV which will happily do cruising speeds of 120-140 km/h all day.
Nice review man..good job.Finally a good ladder on frame SUV.My fortuner is too bumpy and keeps shifting its weight around corners which makes it scary in the handling department. Hoping this one does far far better.And by the way this is what i call a proper review.:)
+Aditya Sathianath - Thanks Aditya ... i too own a Fortuner since 5+ years. I was hoping to replace it with this new Endeavour. But sadly this 3.2L is not available with a Manual transmission. So i have no option but to re-buy the Fortuner (All new) which will come next year.
+KKC On A-Motive -Yeah! i do get your point.Hopefully the new T-fort will be better. But its nice how ford manages to make there cars including an SUV good to drive.:)
Great Review sir. But I think all the terrains you put forth could have been handled in just sand mode. A tougher terrain would have been nicer to see if the modes actually made any difference.
+Stan John - Thanks Stan ... Well i partly agree, the 2nd terrain may not have needed Rock mode, but as soon as you go into the 4x4 low the wheel slips less. Also in the last terrain the purpose of putting on the Rock mode and lock the diffs on the dry river bed was to understand how the TMS behaves and distributes torque on those loose rocks.
+aamir khan - Thanks I appreciate your comments but in whatever time (1.5 days) i had with the car i tried to review the best I could in various terrains, Also my team is small, its just me & my brother :) Thanks again !
+KKC On A-Motive bro you're really doing a good job by reviewing these vehicles, the way you review many other big channels fail to do so. appreciate it 👍
Karan, you need some device which will filter out noise when you are speaking inside the car. Outside the car, your voice was good, inside the cabin, I had to make an effort. Nice video :)
+VA B - Thanks ! A good question, the simple answer to that is that the torque band of the Endeavour is 1750 - 2500 rpm. So when the car upshifts early it is to stay in that power band.
+YON C - My comparison review which i recently did for TEAM-BHP; www.team-bhp.com/forum/official-new-car-reviews/173334-ford-endeavour-official-review.html#post3914210
Hey overall good review. Have watched a few reviews and feel this was d best since it was straight to the point. Any car review I need and I'm coming to ur page. Keep up the good wrk. Cheers mate
Mate, review was good. But you should try sound recorder. It can minimize the wind noise. And the other scope of improvement is that the review needs to be well scripted. Overall nice try. Have booked one for me already.
+KKC On A-Motive I don't know why, but I saw your review over and over again. I think it is because of pure content. I think these days, the reviewers like autocar, powerdrift or overdrive are paid to not to review negative aspects of the cars. But watching your review was a pleasure. I am sure this channel won't do this for money. Moreover I bought this car yesterday, and boy this car is, like you said, Unbeatable.
Thanks Vijay. Mustang press cars are not really available, Ford had only one such event at the BIC. BUT i have done a video on the Mustang while i was in the US, check this out; czcams.com/video/ChnWeqU5kKA/video.html
Thanks, yes i have already purchased a collar mic, you can check my Jaguar XE to make out the difference. Also the next video im uploading this weekend you can note better audio. Thanks for your understanding.
Hi Aditya, these big engined diesel vehicles you may definitely feel some vibrations flow through the cabin or like in your case the accelerator pedal.
Have you driven the 2.2 version? I'm interested in this SUV, the model I'm looking at is 2.2 4x4 MT. Granted the 3.2 has more grunt and will put smile on the face of the driver. it has no MT option. I only drove an automatic once in 2009 and hated it, seemed like it was disconnected and brakes felt jerky. I am in a bit of a conundrum 3.2 is great, a lot of equipment for the money but 2.2 has a MT and would be a safer bet in the long run. What are your opinions?
hi, i havent driven the 2.2 M/T... but id have picked up the 2.2 too. Also it wont be that bad, as the torque rating is more than 3L D4D of current Fortuner. Also features dont matter so much, the joy of 'using' or 'flaunting' features or toys dies off very soon after ownership. All the best !
thats some quality content, keep it up..👍 btw why would anyone take such expensive and good looking suv in deserts, rivers etc ? There's a thar for such reason..
Hi, Well Endeavour v/s Fortuner is a long battle where some prefer Toyota brand where as others may want to buy the Ford. BUT in todays scenario the Endeavour is a great product with more features and better engine too (more power and an extra cylinder). So if you want to buy an A/T then the Ford is better product, if Manual then definitely the Toyota as its available with a larger 2.8 L compared to 2.2 L of Ford. I would have bought the Endeavour if the 3.2L were available with a M/T. It was not Hence i bought the 2.8L 4x4 MT Fortuner.
+Prashant Nautiyal - Thanks ! I agree the voice quality could have been better, especially in the outdoor during explaining the tailgate. Shall get it sorted from next video onward.
Ravi, Endeavour v/s Fortuner is a long battle where some prefer Toyota brand where as others may want to buy the Ford. BUT in todays scenario the Endeavour is a great product with more features and better engine too (more power and an extra cylinder). So if you want to buy an A/T then the Ford is better product, if Manual then definitely the Toyota as its available with a larger 2.8 L compared to 2.2 L of Ford. Hence i bought an 4x4 MT Fortuner. All the best !
+K Rao - In my testing i got an overall 9.5 km/l. But you can expect 8-9 in highway conditions & 12-13 km/l on highway cruising speeds (The 6th gear helps keep the rpm low on highway & aid FE)
Sanit, Endeavour v/s Fortuner is a long battle where some prefer Toyota brand where as others may want to buy the Ford. BUT in todays scenario the Endeavour is a great product with more features and better engine too (more power and an extra cylinder). So if you want to buy an A/T then the Ford is better product, if Manual then definitely the Toyota as its available with a larger 2.8 L compared to 2.2 L of Ford. Hence i bought an 4x4 MT Fortuner.
SAGAR, great question but strangely the answer lies not in what has gone wrong with Ford but the brand loyalty factor & respect towards brand Toyota over Ford. Somehow resale also is much better of a Toyota product, service costs also come into picture. Ford gave products like IKON, ESCORT etc where initally they struggled with spares, service costs etc on the other hand Toyota gave products like Qualis, Corolla where they exceeded market expectations with their long term ownership costs & resale. Hope you have an answer by now... Regards !
+Ponygt 662 - New Endeavour in some markets like Australia is taking on the much expensive Prado too. Speaking of Toyota pricing, they have always shown adamancy in their pricing policy because their products are so good & carry a lot of reputation when it comes to resale. But today this Endeavour is truly a VFM buy.
KKC On A-Motive I dont think Toyota products have ever been good, the only thing Toyota products do goodis regarding reliability, rest all parameters Toyota is Crap! eg Etios/Liva vs Aspire/Figo, Etios is crap Corolla vs Focus/Jetta/Octavia, Corolla is CRAP! Innovas Ford competition is Ford S Max which is light years better than Innova, But when it comes to reliability Toyota handily beats Ford, its said that an average Toyota is 3x times more reliable than a Ford,VW,Peugeot etc, Thats the only reason they sell well
KKC On A-Motive I hope so, India is worlds toughest proving ground, true Rangers have been reliable but its been in much friendlier environments like Australia,New Zealand,South Africa,Turkey, etc where the climate etc has specific pattern and roads are near perfect, India is like too tough for any car to stay fine, So hope the new Endeavor can run reliably upto 2.4 lakh kms A fortuner,Innov on average runs upto 2000k kms without issues post which it can get freaky, still thats a huge number So lets see how the Ford tackles India Hows ur uber sporty Figo TDCi?
+Ponygt 662 - I respect your knowledge and analysis. Speaking about the Figo, its doing fine ... covered aprox 3000 kms so far & the 1st service is done. This is my thread on team-bhp where you can see all the updates; www.team-bhp.com/forum/test-drives-initial-ownership-reports/170167-my-video-review-2015-ford-figo-1-5l-tdci.html
Great review of the Ford Endeavour. Definitely covered all the bases including the odd position of the tachometer and middle seat split both of which obviously were for left hand drive markets. I think Ford has to fix that. If I'm paying for a SUV, I don't want to have a compromise on my hands. We should demand better from our car companies rather than have other market hand me downs.
NO, its not as bad as you think... obviously its nothing like the Mitsubishi Outlander or a Honda CRV. BUT this is good for a true blue body on frame SUV.
Hi Nayan, The xuv in AWD variant is really capable BUT the Crysta's new engine is really fun to drive even in the 2.4L version. Overall i'd suggest you pick the xuv if you want that AWD advantage, if not then the Crysta. Also you can wait for the Hexa, i believe their 4x4 variant will be priced around 16L ex showroom.
Hi, I am looking at buying this car the 3.2 variant. However, I see several pictures emerging from Thailand showing a possible upgrade (Face Lift). what do you suggest should I wait for the facelift, if yes how long in your opinion would that wait be?
Hi, the facelift as you see in the pics has extremely minuscule changes as far as the exteriors are concerned. Interiors will / should get a better / faster entertainment touch screen package. Honestly i dont see this launching before 2019 as the current Endeavour was launched in 2016 Jan so its been only 2 years & Automakers would normally like to refresh around the 3 year mark. So if you dont mind waiting for another 11-12 months then wait otherwise buyin the current one would also not be a loss. All the best !
Thanks KKC for a very quick reply. I am not sure if I can wait that long. But the rumoured features to be added seem to be much more (i.e. LEd Head lamps, push button start, adaptive cruise control). I am mighty confused. Hope ford clarifies on when it would bring the updated model.
good info on the car but i everyday take my 4x2 scorpio on worse terrains..you should have chosen more difficult terrain but anyways thanks on the info
Hello Balraj ... Thanks and I appreciate your comments. I partly agree but in all the time i had with the car with me thats all the off roading i could manage in terrain which was available. I wish I could have access to more difficult obstacles & slushy portions to justify the Endeavours capabilities.
+KKC On A-Motive no bro...you did a great review and it was more descriptive than most big channels...i will surely keep a look out for ur next videos...great job done, good luck for the future
+midhunlal T - Hi, i recently did a comparo review for team-bhp, heres the link; www.team-bhp.com/forum/official-new-car-reviews/173334-ford-endeavour-official-review.html#post3914210

You say that as off road.. that is the road in Kerala and we can go through those hassle using bajaj or Piaggio ape.. well if we are rich enough to buy Mahindra Thar, then no need to select terrain too... just 4x2 mode will do
I appreciate your comment but try and understand in whatever time i had i tried to review the best I could in various terrains. And its not how & which car can pass the same terrains but with how much ease & thats what was shown in ther review. I personally own a Fortuner and do my own bit of off roading what the fortuner can handle. BUT this being a press car i have to maintain some sanity in what I attempt. Also i am not an established name in the field of reviewing so i can't afford to damage the car just to get exciting content. But still i get your point & i hope you get mine as well. Thanks !
bro can u make a 2.2l 4x4 MT review +KKC ON A-MOTIVE THOUGH A TRUE REVIEW FROM BOTTOM OF THE HEART A MANUAL WOULD BE MORE FUN TO DRIVE....THONK SOOOO.......!!!!!!!!!!
+rajesh shinde - Thanks, at the time wen i had asked for cars the Manual Press cars weren't available. Still not there i think. But thanks for your appreciation.
NO, its not as bad as you think... obviously its nothing like the Mitsubishi Outlander or a Honda CRV. BUT this is good for a true blue body on frame SUV. Better handler than the current Fortuner & Pajero Sport !
Yes good question, I went for Fortuner as there was no Manual transmission option with the Ford in the 3.2L. I wanted a Manual hence bought the 4*4 mt Fortuner. If automatic then the Ford is better for sure.
I am looking forward for buying the 3.2 titanium , Bro as you now own the fortuner 2016 so can you tell me infarct be honest (-: which one to go for am overwhelmed by the feature list of the endy but want to know whether the fortuner is more comfortable or the endy ??
Well Endeavour v/s Fortuner is a long battle where some prefer Toyota brand where as others may want to buy the Ford. BUT in todays scenario the Endeavour is a great product with more features and better engine too (more power and an extra cylinder). So if you want to buy an A/T then the Ford is better product, if Manual then definitely the Toyota as its available with a larger 2.8 L compared to 2.2 L of Ford. Hence i bought an 4x4 MT Fortuner.
You were right not a good idea to go with TFort if someone wants automatic ! My friend just got a tfort 2.8 A/T and with in 5k km his A/T box has malfunctioned , Had been to the dealership and found out some other 2017 Tforts having same issues , Heard about Tfoet recalls in Philippians !
Thanks, well both are very different cars. Though similarly priced i'd pick the Endeavour only if i do long distance inter city driving, trial driving or off road/overlanding. Superb is also capable of long distance / inter city driving but it has its limitation is rural / bad road areas. Buy the car you love or look forward to own.
If he wants a Superb ask him to opt for the Diesel if Petrol then stay away as the DQ200 A/T gearbox is prone to failures. Fortuner v/s Endeavour is simple. If A/T then pick the Endeavour as its a better A/T with a larger engine, more power. If M/T then pick the Fortuner.
Clearly the most handsome reviewer in India !!👍👍😊 good job bro.
Ha Ha, thanks Ananth !
Good review, just don't miss chest days bro
Hey Gerard thanks, well noted bro !
KKC On A-Motive jk man good sport all the best

All the best for the Everest !
Solid review just like the rest but quick question , how do early gearshifts provide more low end torque ?
+VA B - Thanks ! A good question, the simple answer to that is that the torque band of the Endeavour is 1750 - 2500 rpm. So when the car upshifts early it is to stay in that power band.
Nice Review on this unbeatable Machine. Can u make a video on Toyota Fortuner & Ford Endavour's Compariosn. Would be appreciated.

Great Review Bro... Will you be doing a review of the Legendary Ford Mustang any time soon
Thanks Vijay. Mustang press cars are not really available, Ford had only one such event at the BIC.
BUT i have done a video on the Mustang while i was in the US, check this out;
czcams.com/video/ChnWeqU5kKA/video.html
my favourite car
why you think 3.2 MT is better than fhe automatic one?
MT is always(or at least in most of the cases) more fun to drive.
Piece of advice . kindly use external mic instead of relying on the camera mic. cheers
Thanks, yes i have already purchased a collar mic, you can check my Jaguar XE to make out the difference.
Also the next video im uploading this weekend you can note better audio.
Thanks for your understanding.
nice review, but missed on sun roof
+Vikrant Holkar - Thanks !
I felt some vibration while pressing the acceleration pad and i wish there was more gear than 6
Hi Aditya, these big engined diesel vehicles you may definitely feel some vibrations flow through the cabin or like in your case the accelerator pedal.
realy brother you got some serious talent want to see this channel to hit some amazing statistics ! god bless you :-D

Have you driven the 2.2 version? I'm interested in this SUV, the model I'm looking at is 2.2 4x4 MT. Granted the 3.2 has more grunt and will put smile on the face of the driver. it has no MT option.

hi, i havent driven the 2.2 M/T... but id have picked up the 2.2 too. Also it wont be that bad, as the torque rating is more than 3L D4D of current Fortuner.
Also features dont matter so much, the joy of 'using' or 'flaunting' features or toys dies off very soon after ownership.
All the best !
Sir; As you already knew that endeavour is a great value for money then, why did you choose the fortuner..?
Because Endeavour did not offer a a Manual Transmission with the 3.2L engine.
Hi bro we are buying this car how is the service and if we activate sport mode will the sound increase please we r buying this
Pls make a review of Tata hexa

Sir, MRF Is better company than dunlop.........
video Requested for Chevorlet Cruze..
thanks
I have owned a Cruze 2L diesel LTZ for about 4 years, loved that car, sadly its too late to make a video now, but lets see...
I m confused between ford endeavour 2016 and upcoming fortuner? should I wait for all new fortuner or I should go with endeavour 2016? Help plzz
If buying an A/T then go in for the Endy 3.2, if M/T then Fortuner.
Hello sir !! I just saw the video and I wanted to know that why you chose the fortuner over endeavour
Hi,
Well Endeavour v/s Fortuner is a long battle where some prefer Toyota brand where as others may want to buy the Ford. BUT in todays scenario the Endeavour is a great product with more features and better engine too (more power and an extra cylinder). So if you want to buy an A/T then the Ford is better product, if Manual then definitely the Toyota as its available with a larger 2.8 L compared to 2.2 L of Ford. I would have bought the Endeavour if the 3.2L were available with a M/T.
It was not Hence i bought the 2.8L 4x4 MT Fortuner.
Yo nhi no:-8, Finally I got to c my premises at 4:55. I c so much mehnat u do to review a car 🚗 isn't it?
sir review the tata hexa ,both the at and mt . it will be good to hear from you.
Il try to ...
Dude, good review... but whats with your voice??
+Prashant Nautiyal - Thanks ! I agree the voice quality could have been better, especially in the outdoor during explaining the tailgate. Shall get it sorted from next video onward.
fortuner 2016 or Endeavour 2016?
Hi, Bro can you tell me which one is the best. New Toyota fortuner or New endeavour..
Ravi,
Endeavour v/s Fortuner is a long battle where some prefer Toyota brand where as others may want to buy the Ford. BUT in todays scenario the Endeavour is a great product with more features and better engine too (more power and an extra cylinder). So if you want to buy an A/T then the Ford is better product, if Manual then definitely the Toyota as its available with a larger 2.8 L compared to 2.2 L of Ford.
Hence i bought an 4x4 MT Fortuner.
All the best !
i was surprised when you choose 2016fortuner over endevour. might be for manual transmission.
Yes, you are correct.
What is fuel economy for city and highway ?
+K Rao - In my testing i got an overall 9.5 km/l. But you can expect 8-9 in highway conditions & 12-13 km/l on highway cruising speeds (The 6th gear helps keep the rpm low on highway & aid FE)
Plzzzzzz review 2.2 engine
sir then why did u buyed 2016 fortuner??
Sanit, Endeavour v/s Fortuner is a long battle where some prefer Toyota brand where as others may want to buy the Ford. BUT in todays scenario the Endeavour is a great product with more features and better engine too (more power and an extra cylinder). So if you want to buy an A/T then the Ford is better product, if Manual then definitely the Toyota as its available with a larger 2.8 L compared to 2.2 L of Ford.
Hence i bought an 4x4 MT Fortuner.
KKC On A-Motive thanks for so fast reply
sir congratulations for your new car
Thanks for the wishes !
KKC On A-Motive hope to see some good off-road videos of new beast!!
good review...
Thanks !
Bro endeavour have lot of new features and fortuner have nothing then also most of the people buy fortuner only WHY??????
SAGAR, great question but strangely the answer lies not in what has gone wrong with Ford but the brand loyalty factor & respect towards brand Toyota over Ford. Somehow resale also is much better of a Toyota product, service costs also come into picture. Ford gave products like IKON, ESCORT etc where initally they struggled with spares, service costs etc on the other hand Toyota gave products like Qualis, Corolla where they exceeded market expectations with their long term ownership costs & resale.
Hope you have an answer by now...
Regards !
KKC On A-Motive tnx really got gud answer
New Endeavor is so dman amazing and yet costs just as much or lower than the Fortuner
+Ponygt 662 - New Endeavour in some markets like Australia is taking on the much expensive Prado too. Speaking of Toyota pricing, they have always shown adamancy in their pricing policy because their products are so good & carry a lot of reputation when it comes to resale. But today this Endeavour is truly a VFM buy.
KKC On A-Motive
I dont think Toyota products have ever been good, the only thing Toyota products do goodis regarding reliability, rest all parameters Toyota is Crap!
eg Etios/Liva vs Aspire/Figo, Etios is crap
Corolla vs Focus/Jetta/Octavia, Corolla is CRAP!
Innovas Ford competition is Ford S Max which is light years better than Innova,
But when it comes to reliability Toyota handily beats Ford, its said that an average Toyota is 3x times more reliable than a Ford,VW,Peugeot etc,
Thats the only reason they sell well
+Ponygt 662 - Fair point ! But this Ford will be reliable too considering its Ranger Pick up roots.
KKC On A-Motive
I hope so, India is worlds toughest proving ground, true Rangers have been reliable but its been in much friendlier environments like Australia,New Zealand,South Africa,Turkey, etc where the climate etc has specific pattern and roads are near perfect, India is like too tough for any car to stay fine,
So hope the new Endeavor can run reliably upto 2.4 lakh kms
A fortuner,Innov on average runs upto 2000k kms without issues post which it can get freaky, still thats a huge number
So lets see how the Ford tackles India
Hows ur uber sporty Figo TDCi?
+Ponygt 662 - I respect your knowledge and analysis.
Speaking about the Figo, its doing fine ... covered aprox 3000 kms so far & the 1st service is done.
This is my thread on team-bhp where you can see all the updates;
www.team-bhp.com/forum/test-drives-initial-ownership-reports/170167-my-video-review-2015-ford-figo-1-5l-tdci.html
Great review of the Ford Endeavour. Definitely covered all the bases including the odd position of the tachometer and middle seat split both of which obviously were for left hand drive markets. I think Ford has to fix that. If I'm paying for a SUV, I don't want to have a compromise on my hands. We should demand better from our car companies rather than have other market hand me downs.
+Nikhil Nayak - Thanks Nikhil !
In your opinion,which is better,Endeavour or Fortuner
Hi, a head2head comparison video of these SUV's is in the making & will be uploaded by next week. That should hopefully solve most of your queries.
KKC On A-Motive ok:)
I HEARD THE SUSPENSION IS SOFT AND U CANT REALLY DO HARD CORNERS IN SPEED IS IT TRUE?
NO, its not as bad as you think... obviously its nothing like the Mitsubishi Outlander or a Honda CRV. BUT this is good for a true blue body on frame SUV.
What is the milage??? you didn't mention
+Abhishek Srivastava - i got around 8.5 km/l during the review ... but i think you can expect around 9.5-10 km/l from the 3.2L
Thanks can you give the links to your figo review on teampbp
+lawry010 - www.team-bhp.com/forum/test-drives-initial-ownership-reports/170167-my-video-review-2015-ford-figo-1-5l-tdci.html
hi kkc im thinking to buy a car so which one is best xuv w10 4wd manual or a innova crysta manual disel 2.4
Hi Nayan,
The xuv in AWD variant is really capable BUT the Crysta's new engine is really fun to drive even in the 2.4L version.
Overall i'd suggest you pick the xuv if you want that AWD advantage, if not then the Crysta.
Also you can wait for the Hexa, i believe their 4x4 variant will be priced around 16L ex showroom.
you comparing with new fortuner or the old one?
This video was done is early Feb so whatever points are mentioned of the Fortuner are definitely of the previous old gen Fortuner.
Well Done!!!
Can You people review pajero sport 4x4 MT before the new one arrives . please..
+kramadhati lakshminarayan srihari - Thanks, il try.
KKC On A-Motive please..
Hi, I am looking at buying this car the 3.2 variant. However, I see several pictures emerging from Thailand showing a possible upgrade (Face Lift). what do you suggest should I wait for the facelift, if yes how long in your opinion would that wait be?
Hi, the facelift as you see in the pics has extremely minuscule changes as far as the exteriors are concerned. Interiors will / should get a better / faster entertainment touch screen package. Honestly i dont see this launching before 2019 as the current Endeavour was launched in 2016 Jan so its been only 2 years & Automakers would normally like to refresh around the 3 year mark. So if you dont mind waiting for another 11-12 months then wait otherwise buyin the current one would also not be a loss.
All the best !
Thanks KKC for a very quick reply. I am not sure if I can wait that long. But the rumoured features to be added seem to be much more (i.e. LEd Head lamps, push button start, adaptive cruise control). I am mighty confused. Hope ford clarifies on when it would bring the updated model.
good info on the car but i everyday take my 4x2 scorpio on worse terrains..you should have chosen more difficult terrain but anyways thanks on the info
Hello Balraj ... Thanks and I appreciate your comments. I partly agree but in all the time i had with the car with me thats all the off roading i could manage in terrain which was available.
I wish I could have access to more difficult obstacles & slushy portions to justify the Endeavours capabilities.
+KKC On A-Motive no bro...you did a great review and it was more descriptive than most big channels...i will surely keep a look out for ur next videos...great job done, good luck for the future
+BALRAJ SINGH DAYAL - Thank you for your understanding & appreciation.
which is the best one? Fortuner or Endeavour?
+midhunlal T - Hi, i recently did a comparo review for team-bhp, heres the link;
www.team-bhp.com/forum/official-new-car-reviews/173334-ford-endeavour-official-review.html#post3914210
sir I want to buy a suv and very much confused in fortuner and endeavour and I also want to buy top model sir plz help me THANK YOU.....
If you want an Automatic then go for the Endeavour if Manual then Fortuner.
how you feeling about rear a/c vents is it comfortable?
Yes, nothing to report negatively about.
brother... can u pls review TATA SAFARI STORME varicor 400.
it wl help vry much to evry1....
??????
Hi Manjyot, il try to.
KKC On A-Motive thanks brother.....
will be veryyyy eagerly waiting for it now...😍😊
Great 👍
Which is best New fortuner or New Endeavour?
Well Endeavour v/s Fortuner is a long battle where some prefer Toyota brand where as others may want to buy the Ford. BUT in todays scenario the Endeavour is a great product with more features and better engine too (more power and an extra cylinder). So if you want to buy an A/T then the Ford is better product, if Manual then definitely the Toyota as its available with a larger 2.8 L compared to 2.2 L of Ford.
KKC On A-Motive hi i m planning to buy 2.2 mt 4x4 model of endeavour . Can u please guide me about that model.
You say that as off road.. that is the road in Kerala and we can go through those hassle using bajaj or Piaggio ape.. well if we are rich enough to buy Mahindra Thar, then no need to select terrain too... just 4x2 mode will do
I appreciate your comment but try and understand in whatever time i had i tried to review the best I could in various terrains. And its not how & which car can pass the same terrains but with how much ease & thats what was shown in ther review. I personally own a Fortuner and do my own bit of off roading what the fortuner can handle. BUT this being a press car i have to maintain some sanity in what I attempt. Also i am not an established name in the field of reviewing so i can't afford to damage the car just to get exciting content. But still i get your point & i hope you get mine as well.
Thanks !
Sir ,what is your height??
bro can u make a 2.2l 4x4 MT review +KKC ON A-MOTIVE
THOUGH A TRUE REVIEW FROM BOTTOM OF THE HEART
A MANUAL WOULD BE MORE FUN TO DRIVE....THONK SOOOO.......!!!!!!!!!!
+rajesh shinde - Thanks, at the time wen i had asked for cars the Manual Press cars weren't available. Still not there i think.
But thanks for your appreciation.
my sister already bought one top of the line 3 litre 4wd
Yeah... So cool to drive from home to the mall
i heard the suspension is soft, is it true? good review by the way.
NO, its not as bad as you think... obviously its nothing like the Mitsubishi Outlander or a Honda CRV. BUT this is good for a true blue body on frame SUV.
Better handler than the current Fortuner & Pajero Sport !
+KKC On A-Motive thank you for replying.
+KKC On A-Motive thank you for replying.
Brother you described endeavour in one word as unbeatable then why you went for the fortuner...??!!
Yes good question, I went for Fortuner as there was no Manual transmission option with the Ford in the 3.2L. I wanted a Manual hence bought the 4*4 mt Fortuner. If automatic then the Ford is better for sure.
Hi bro. Your videos are great. Are you on Teambhp? What's your ID?
Thanks, my team-bhp id is 'karan561'.
I am looking forward for buying the 3.2 titanium , Bro as you now own the fortuner 2016 so can you tell me infarct be honest (-: which one to go for am overwhelmed by the feature list of the endy but want to know whether the fortuner is more comfortable or the endy ??
Well Endeavour v/s Fortuner is a long battle where some prefer Toyota brand where as others may want to buy the Ford. BUT in todays scenario the Endeavour is a great product with more features and better engine too (more power and an extra cylinder). So if you want to buy an A/T then the Ford is better product, if Manual then definitely the Toyota as its available with a larger 2.8 L compared to 2.2 L of Ford.
Hence i bought an 4x4 MT Fortuner.
True MT wont fail and Tfort selling price is better but bro i got the Endy last week
Roshan Kumar Dixit - Great, Congrats !
Thank you bro
You were right not a good idea to go with TFort if someone wants automatic ! My friend just got a tfort 2.8 A/T and with in 5k km his A/T box has malfunctioned , Had been to the dealership and found out some other 2017 Tforts having same issues , Heard about Tfoet recalls in Philippians !
thank u
Bro wanna point out they put in the mrf to keep the price low ! and if they throw in the panoramic sunroof on the 2.2 no one will go for the 3.2 !!!
True !
The same tyres from yoko cost 14k mrf is just 7.5k I have mrf in my endy performs bad in wet condition
As now Tfort has similar tires i believe Tyre availability wont be a problem
Still not many A/T tyre options, just the Yoko Geo A/T now.
Yoko is overrated had those on my ML250 ! then went for Conti road noise over 100kph completely gone !
Hi Karan bro.. superrrr review..😊😊👍🏻👍🏻.. I am planning 2 buy a car... which ll be better skoda superb or ford endovour.. plz suggest..
Thanks, well both are very different cars. Though similarly priced i'd pick the Endeavour only if i do long distance inter city driving, trial driving or off road/overlanding.
Superb is also capable of long distance / inter city driving but it has its limitation is rural / bad road areas.
Buy the car you love or look forward to own.
Thanks a lot bro.....
Present my bro have fortuner..... So I asked ur suggestion.......?
If he wants a Superb ask him to opt for the Diesel if Petrol then stay away as the DQ200 A/T gearbox is prone to failures. Fortuner v/s Endeavour is simple. If A/T then pick the Endeavour as its a better A/T with a larger engine, more power. If M/T then pick the Fortuner.
Thanks a lot bro... I like ur reviews a lot..☺️☺️
