The new generation of the Ford Endeavour has hit the right notes and hence is successful as well. It has been challenging the market leader Toyota Fortuner and there are a lot of buyers who are preferring the Endeavour over the Fortuner. The Endeavour looks butchy, intimidating and has great road presence. This SUV set new benchmarks for full-size SUVs, when launched in 2016. It became an instant hit with buyers and also had a waiting period, especially for the 3.2-litre variant. Now the company will be launching the 2018 Ford Endeavour.

As the SUV will complete three years of its launch, the Ford Endeavour 2018 will arrive. The vehicle has been spied a few times and also some of the changes have been revealed. Though the basic design will be the same, it will get subtle upgrades that will differentiate it from the current model. The interiors will also receive a change in terms of colour theme and upholstery. New features are expected to come on the Ford Endeavour 2018. This will include push button start, keyless entry, SYNC 3, new leather upholstery, improved audio system, radar assist and new alloy wheels.

The price of the Endeavour will not change much. It will continue to be priced the way it is. There might be a slight bump in price due to the addition of new features. However, this will not be very significant. Ford would want to increse its market share in the segment and take on the Fortuner in a stronger way. The 2018 Ford Endeavour facelift has been caught on camera, several times. It is expected to be launched by the end of 2018. The new Endeavour will add some more excitement for its buyers.
