Ford Territory 2025 arrives with a new design and cutting-edge technology. Now with a plug-in hybrid version, it promises to revolutionize the Brazilian SUV market.

Get ready for a new era in hybrid SUVs. The 2025 Ford Territory arrives with a surprising proposal and an ambitious mission: to compete directly with giants like BYD, but with a series of technological updates and a completely new look.

Although the first impressions were revealed months ago, news continues to emerge, creating a wave of curiosity.

After all, how will the new Territory position itself in the competitive Brazilian automotive market?

The answer began to be designed in China, where the version of Ford Territory 2025 was officially launched, named there as Equator Sport.

The vehicle received a bold restyling, mechanical improvements and an unprecedented plug-in hybrid version.

But what does this mean for Brazil? The expectation is that this new phase of the model will have a profound impact on sales, especially with the growing demand for SUVs and more sustainable vehicles in the country.

Renewed look and expanded dimensions

The Territory 2025, as it is known globally, has grown in size and gained a more aggressive design, inspired by already established models such as the Toyota Corolla Cross.

With 55 mm more length, the vehicle now totals 4.685 mm, reinforcing its imposing appearance on streets and roads.

The width remains at 1.935 mm, while the height of 1.706 mm guarantees the comfort and stability required for the SUV market.

The wheelbase remains at 2.726 mm, ideal for those looking for a spacious car, without losing practicality in traffic.

The front end has been completely redesigned, with an integrated grille and headlights with a new shape, giving the model a modern and robust aesthetic.

Revised wheels and contrasting bodywork details complete the sporty and sophisticated look, positioning the Territory as a strong option among luxury SUVs.

State-of-the-art equipment and interior comfort

Inside, Ford spared no effort in raising the standard of comfort and technology.

The model has new finishes on the seats, which now have more ergonomic headrests. Among the new equipment, the facial recognition system stands out, which promises to increase driver safety.

Additionally, the 2025 Territory offers wireless smartphone charging, adaptive cruise control, automatic braking, and advanced blind-spot monitoring and lane-keeping systems.

All this comes with an active noise reduction system, ideal for those looking for a peaceful driving experience, even in large urban centers.

The trunk volume is 448 liters, expandable to 1.422 liters with the rear seats folded down, ensuring plenty of space for long trips and everyday activities.

Hybrid engine: surprising power and efficiency

The big news, without a doubt, is the plug-in hybrid version, new to the Territory model.

The mechanical set includes a 1.5 turbo gasoline engine, capable of delivering 150 hp, coupled to an 82 hp electric motor.

Together, these engines provide a combined power of 218 hp., sufficient for agile and efficient driving.

The lithium iron phosphate (LiFePo) battery, manufactured by Chinese giant CATL, offers considerable autonomy, although Ford has not yet released exact figures on capacity and range in all-electric mode.

In addition to the hybrid version, the Territory will also maintain the traditional version with the 1.5 EcoBoost engine, which delivers 170 hp and 27 kgfm of torque.

This engine combination promises to please both those looking for economy and those who prefer more power at the wheel.

The Ford Territory in Brazil: what to expect?

Although the 2025 version of the Territory was launched in China, the expectation is that the model will arrive in Brazil next year.

Ford has invested in strategic partnerships to strengthen its production and presence in the country, according to automotive industry sources.

The SUV should attract an audience that seeks both innovation and comfort, especially with the growing demand for hybrid vehicles in Brazil.

With growing competition among SUVs in the country, including models like the BYD Song Plus, Ford needs to stand out to conquer its space.

The hybrid Territory could be the answer to this battle, bringing cutting edge technology and a differentiated proposal for consumers.
