How does it compare against its rivals?
In this BS6 era, the Ford Endeavour faces competition from the Toyota Fortuner and the Mahindra Alturas G4. The hike in prices means that the Endeavour diesel range is now priced on par with the Fortuner’s. The Ford still manages to slightly undercut the Toyota at the lower end but is marginally more expensive at the top end. Do note, Toyota is currently offering a limited edition Fortuner TRD variant that comes with more equipment like a 360-degree camera and heads-up display and is priced from Rs 34.98 lakh to Rs 36.88 lakh. The Mahindra Alturas, as before, continues to undercut both its rivals by a significant margin. The other competitor in this range, the Isuzu MU-X, is yet to be upgraded to meet BS6 emission norms.
