EXCLUSIVE: 2020 Ford Endeavour BS6 2.0 Diesel Review | First Drive | Autocar India

The Ford Endeavour will soon be launched in BS6 guise, but rather than an upgraded version of its existing engines, it has been fitted with an all-new 2.0-litre, four-cylinder diesel engine, codenamed 'Panther'. What's more, it also gets a 10-speed automatic gearbox, as well as a few cosmetic and equipment changes. Shapur Kotwal gets an exclusive first drive to tell you what it's all about.

Alright for everyone talking about this 2.0 engine will not pull weight to 3.2 predecessor you haven't done enough research or driven the vehicle. This engine is the same as the one available in Ford ranger raptor the performance vehicle designed by Ford in Australia. Specially designed engine and gearbox for raptor which was introduced in Ford Everest (Endeavour) in 2019. Yes, 2019. 2020 Ford Endeavour In India is 2019 Ford Everest in Australia. Its a proven performance engine and is the most popular variant here. Its a bi-turbo engine not a regular turbo engine. The power delivery of 3.2 engine - 143kW at 3000rpm and 470Nm at 1750-2500rpm running through a six-speed automatic gearbox. Power delivery of bi-turbo 2.0 engine 157kW at 3750rpm and 500Nm at 1750-2000rpm with Ford’s new 10-speed gearbox. The extra grunt comes courtesy of a sequential turbo system designed to ensure torque comes on early without letting the engine run out of puff at higher revs without becoming breathless. Also benefits fuel consumption with an official 7.4 L/100km rating. In every way the incoming engine is far superior than the 3.2. Test drive and compare with the old and you will thank me. This new version is beating the Toyota prado 2.8 all hands down ( highest seller in volume in Australia)

[@deepankarchutia1413]

10 speed gear box,???

[@PrinoyPhalgunan]

Find it funny when people say a little more power would be better. Yes, it would be better when you drive a 500bhp monster on a no speed limit highway every single day. Comparison is legit. But these SUV's will either be used as a daily driver or a highway cruiser. This Endy is an incredible highway mile muncher and with the new 10 speed gearbox, it'd only get better. Cruising at 120 with the rpm ticking in at barely 1500 rpm is no joke. Now in the city, these 170 horses are an overkill to be honest. Traffic jams, slow moving traffic, speed limits of 50kmph or less and what not. With this engine-gearbox combo, Ford has struck an immaculate combination that'll be efficient and silent most of the time. Paying over 40 lakhs and peace of mind is not only Toyota's forte, Endy is equally good or even better. So tell me, what's the whole point of demanding more when people behind their mind secretly wish for more mileage? 170 bhp and 420 nm of torque in a vehicle that weighs over 2 tonnes is more than adequate. People are never satisfied with the power 🤦🏻‍♂️

Yes bro....they should bring bi-turbo 2.0 litre diesel engine to India as the same is available in FORD EVEREST globally which is nothing but ENDEAVOUR only.

[@1989rs500]

Actually no need for bi turbo. India is extremely fuel efficiency conscious market. For India 170 bhp and 420 NM is enough. The 3.2 was way too pathetic when it comes to mileage and yet didn't provide more than 250 bhp like how VWs 3.0 diesels etc do. So that engine was a massive failure If U ask me. Its just good for towing..else its too thirsty and less power dense. So this new engine gearbox combo in my view is much better than the outgoing 3.2+6F trans

[@NikhilGupta-wi4qv]

@@saurabhkaushik529 according to me they did good by not bringing the bi-turbo as it would increase it's price significantly and also the fuel economy would be a issue by providing ,2.0 litre engine you can ensure a good fuel economy. But a turbo one would consume compatively more fuel.

@Anonymous Nothing has increased, addition of a turbo charger only decreases the engine life especially with the hands of harsh riders, increase in mileage is very very marginal. Moreover the naturally aspirated engines have an edge over turbocharged or supercharged in terms of refinement, maintenance, reliability, off-roading. They also should've offered a paddle shifter like in the fortuner. This car lost its charm for sure, at least in the mind of hard core off-roaders and car enthusiasts.
