Ford Territory Car Review

Ford Territory:

The Ford Territory has been named Australia’s Best Recreational Four Wheel Drive two years in succession, and since then an updated version, incorporating a state-of-the-art German-engineered six-speed transmission, has been launched.

Acutrac System:

The Ford Territory is a vehicle with sophisticate styling in a flexible and adaptable package. It is through the Acutrac system that the vehicle delivers confidence and great performance to its drivers. The Ford Territory now comes with the option of Dynamic Stability Control to give the driver an outstanding driving experience!

The Acutrac is a comprehensive vehicle control and active safety system that incorporates Virtual Pivot Control Link front suspension, Anti-lock Braking System with Electronic Brakeforce Distribution, Control Blade Independent Rear Suspension and Grade Control Logic and Traction Control.

The Engine:

With the improved 4.0L DOHC DIVCT 6 cylinder having 190kW of power with enhanced 4-speed automatic transmission, superb interior flexibility and optional seating provision for seven people makes the Ford Territory an amazing car. The Ford Territory provides smoother and slicker acceleration with its seamless gear changes. The 6-speed automatic transmission with Sequential Sports Shift adapts to an individual’s driving style by considering the individual acceleration rates, braking application, cornering speed and matching performance.

The Grade Control Logic feature in the Ford Territory assists the driver in downshifting the vehicle to lower gears and also helps in reducing the need to ride the brakes when travelling downhill. The advanced 6-cylinder petrol engine of the Ford Territory is such that the moment the key is turned, you notice the improved refinement of the vehicle. You will also notice significant fuel economy improvements every time you fill up the tank.

The Family Car:

The Ford Territory can be considered the most practical family car to buy. It having 7 seats is probably the main reason. There are cup holders and compartments in the car. There is even a rubbish bin in the car that can be removed to be stuck in the dishwasher when needed. The spacious cabin is great for long trips, making them smooth, quiet and comfortable. The engine is rather smooth, but not as quick as most family sedans or 4wds, but leaps ahead from most minivans in the market.

Safety Features:

There are side curtain airbags, a premium sound system and alloys also found on the Ford Territory for your safety and comfort. In the AWD model cornering is done sharply with no rolling effect. Another safety feature of the Ford Territory is that the anti-locking braking system automatically comes into operation when there is any change in surfaces occurring, and when the wheel sensors detect different wheel speeds.
