Ford India launches compact Utility vehicle in Hyderabad

Hyderabad, Apr 26 (UNI) Ford India has launched India’s first Compact Utility Vehicle, ‘ Ford Freestyle ‘for Indian consumers in Hyderabad on Thursday.

The all-new global product from Ford combines SUV-like robust design, benchmark performance, innovative technologies and outstanding fuel efficiency –for greater choice to customers.
The brand new CUV is available in four variants across two fuel options and six new colours, Ford India President and Managing Director Anurag Mehrotra told reporters on the occasion.
“The all-new Ford Freestyle is a cool-new car for the young, new age, emerging Indian customers,who aspire to own an SUV-like vehicle,” he said.
The Freestyle comes paired with Ford’s all-new, three-cylinder 1.2L TiVCT petrol engine that is small, light, strong and delivers outstanding fuel efficiency.
The naturally aspirated engine will generate best-in-class 96 PS of peak power and 120 Nm of torque to deliver Ford’s fun-to-drive DNA.
Consumers will continue to have a choice to opt for Ford’s trusted 1.5L TDCi diesel engine that generates class-leading 100 PS peak power and 215 Nm of torque.
Both engines are paired with an all-new, five-speed manual transmission that’s sportier, quicker and enhances its fun-to-drive capabilities, he said.
Elaborating the list of all-new features and technologies, he said Ford has introduced innovative and first-in-class intelligent technology, Active Rollover
Prevention (ARP) with the Freestyle. The system works with Electronic Stability Control and applies brakes on relevant wheels to decrease engine torque and help prevent any potential rollover situations.
The Freestyle will continue Ford’s leadership on Safety, offering standard dual airbags across the variant line-up. For those looking for greater safety, Freestyle will offer up to six airbags on top Titanium+ trim, he informed.
