2020 Ford Endeavour Sport Edition Spied – Fortuner TRD Rival

The 2020 Ford Endeavour Sport variant is expected to be launched in time for festive season

Ford India is getting ready for the festive season with a special edition version of its flagship Endeavour SUV. To be called as Ford Endeavour Sport, the spruced up SUV has been spotted testing without any camouflage in Tamil Nadu. The new version will aiming to counteract the Toyota Fortuner TRD Sportivo which is already on sale in the country.

What’s new?

The spy shots were clicked at night and hence we can only decipher a few details of the upcoming Ford Endeavour Sport. Save for the ‘Sport’ badge on the tailgate and on the lower part of the rear door, three are no noticeable changes to the exterior. The silver element on the rear bumper appears to be finished in chrome but we will know better when the vehicle is photographed in daylight.

We expect the new variant to offer additional features and accessories inside and outside to justify its tag but details are scarce as of now. The Endeavour is already well equipped and the new variant is expected to further enhance its premium appeal.
