Ford's Territory isn't an unfamiliar name; it's been around since the early 2000s. The nameplate is back, but this vehicle is assembled in China rather than Australia. We have reviewed the Territory, and you can read our reviews here.

The new Territory uses Ford's 'Progressive Energy in Strength' design philosophy, which is different from other Ford products in their line-up but is contemporary. Tech is plenty here, besides the usual comfort and convenience features like the 12.3-inch infotainment touchscreen in a landscape format. Additionally, there's a whole bevvy of safety systems to protect you. So, how is the Territory's performance?

A blue Ford Territory SUV is parked near a concrete barrier with the ocean and waves visible in the background. The vehicle is viewed from the rear three-quarter angle, showcasing its sleek design and modern taillights. The sky is clear and blue, indicating a sunny day.

How is the Territory's Performance?

The Territory range is powered by the 1.8-litre EcoBoost petrol engine, which delivers 138kW and 318Nm to the front wheels via a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. You can select a few driving modes, including Normal, Eco, Sport, and Mountain. According to independent testing from overseas, the Teritroy will sprint to 100 km/h in under 10.0 seconds and reach a top speed of around 200 km/h.

A claimed fuel consumption figure of 7.0 L/100 km is provided, but it is unrealistic from our experience. This setup is suitable for daily usage, so you won't have many issues. If you're keen on a Territory, you can search AutoTrader for the latest used and new offerings and sell your car, too.
