Ford Territory

Design & Quality

In Saudi Arabia’s competitive compact SUV market, the Territory’s interior is now going to become a clear differentiator. Ford seems to have worked on some finer details to make it special and appeal to most customers' profiles. So, it gets a blend of luxury, practicality, and tech, and ensures that the durability suits for KSA’s harsh climate and diverse lifestyles. Looks like the focus is totally on the driver, visible through cockpit features, and also there is a lot of upscale feel with the premium materials like dual-tone black and beige leather upholstery, faux wood accents, and satin chrome inserts. However, what you also feel is that there isn't too much, rather the design is quite minimalist at the dash, which houses dual 12.3-inch displays, one for the digital instrument cluster, the second for the touchscreen infotainment system, as it is quite user-friendly too.

Front Seat

The driver’s seat is where you’ll love spending time, and the comfort is taken care of by the 10-way power adjustments and lumbar support (Titanium), which allows utmost comfort during long commutes, city or even intercity trips. Some highlights are leather upholstery, heated and ventilated seats (Titanium), and a flat-bottom steering wheel with paddle shifters, which allow you to stay engaged and relaxed. The seats’ cushioning reduces fatigue, and most of the controls are within reach, which is super convenient as well as distraction-free.

Electronic Parking Brake

The electronic parking brake (EPB) is a huge relief for KSA’s stop-and-go traffic. Not just frees up cabin space, simplifies operation, and pairs with hill-start assist to make inclines and city driving effortless.

Rear Seat

The Territory’s rear bench is something there is no scope to complain about, with adequate legroom and headroom for three adults, because it has a generous 2,726 mm of wheelbase. The Rear AC vents and USB charging ports (Titanium) keep everyone cool and connected in KSA’s sweltering heat. A rear armrest with cupholders ensures comfort during family road trips.

AC Vents

The dual-zone automatic climate control system is not only seamless and easy to use but also very powerful, which most of the customers will appreciate considering the Saudi summers. The cabin can be cooled within minutes, which is a huge relief. Front and rear vents ensure everyone stays comfortable.

Storage Options

Practicality is key, Ford knows it, and so the Territory delivers quite perfectly. A deep centre console, door-mounted bottle holders (1-litre capacity), and a rear armrest storage compartment keep your essentials in order. 

Armrest

The centre armrest (Titanium) doubles as a storage nook for wallets or chargers, while the rear armrest with cupholders makes long drives more enjoyable for passengers..

Charging Options

Stay powered up with multiple USB-A and USB-C ports for front and rear passengers, a 12V socket, and a wireless charging pad (Titanium). Whether you’re charging phones or tablets, the Territory keeps your devices ready for the journey.

Boot Space

The Territory’s 448-litre boot is perfect for everyday needs, and a standard example capacity for your occasional higher cargo space, which can go up to 1,422 litres, should be fine for camping gear or family road trips. The hands-free power liftgate (Titanium) and low liftover height allow loading effortlessly, a feature Saudi families will love.

Safety is non-negotiable, and the Territory delivers with:

• Six airbags (Titanium)
• ISOFIX anchors for child seats
• Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS)
• Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD)
• Electronic Stability Control
• Traction Control

• Auto-Emergency Braking
• 360-degree camera (Titanium)

• Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
• Hill-Start Assist
• Child safety locks
• Anti-theft alarm

These features ensure peace of mind, whether you’re navigating Jeddah’s busy streets or tackling foggy mountain roads in Abha.

What we know so far, Ford has given the Territory’s exterior a significant makeover, which certainly won’t stop turning heads, with its rugged charm and appealing design. Measuring about 4,630 mm long, 1,935 mm wide, and 1,706 mm tall, with a 2,726 mm wheelbase, it is fair to assure it is quite a perfect compact SUV, that can take on KSA’s city roads and also occasional off-road jaunts. Its 190 mm ground clearance is sufficient to handle city speed bumps and light desert trails with ease, which the SUV has proven in the past as well.

The aerodynamic shape isn’t just for looks, but also helps considerably boost fuel efficiency, saving you riyals at the pump. Overall, the shiny and bright styling, from the sharp lines to the imposing road presence, makes the Territory feel like it owns the road.

Front

The front of the Territory is where its bold personality is visible quite clearly. The grille, now in a new design with active shutters, isn’t just for the look but also enhances cooling and aerodynamics, perfect for KSA’s scorching summers. The full LED headlights paired with tri-element LED daytime running lights (DRLs) are stylish but also high in use by cutting through dusty or foggy conditions, and for safe and secure driving in low-visibility areas like Dammam’s coastal roads, and so do the front fog lamps, for that extra clarity.

Side

From the side, the Territory screams sophistication, like the curved window line and satin-finished faux roof bars are good new changes giving it quite a contemporary vibe, which will certainly attract your buyers and also Gen Z. Then comes the chrome accents on the door handles and power-folding side mirrors with LED turn signals for that premium touch.

Alloy Wheels

The Territory currently gets 18-inch alloy wheels (235/55R18) for Ambiente and Trend trims, while Titanium and Dark Edition variants sport 19-inch alloys (235/50R19). These multi-spoke wheels aren’t just visually appealing, but they improve grip and handling, whether you’re weaving through Jeddah’s traffic or cruising the Riyadh-Dammam highway. The larger wheels on higher trims add a sporty edge too.

Rear

The rear of the Territory is where sporty meets practicality, where a full-width LED light bar and 3D-design LED taillights are a real attraction. This gives the SUV a new and upscale look that stands out at night. A faux rear diffuser provides a dash of aggression, while the large roof spoiler and rear fog lamps ensure safety in KSA’s unpredictable weather. The hands-free power liftgate (Titanium) is a lifesaver.

Colors

Pick any colors from Panther Black, True Blue Metallic, Star White Metallic Tri-coat, Ruby Red Metallic Clearcoat, Autumn Brown Metallic, Diffused Silver Metallic, and Crystal Pearl White Metallic Tri-coat.

City Performance

The Territory’s 1.8L EcoBoost engine is something you won’t fail to admire, especially when you experience its magic on KSA’s city roads. What is assured for sure is smooth, responsive power for your daily traffic hassle, and also ease of parking in tight spots. The engine gets a lot of support from the 7-speed automatic transmission shifts, and they both complement each other, which gives you the fun-to-drive elements. Also, not to forget, the 5.5-meter turning radius makes that quite well for U-turns, with minimum efforts. While the mileage always depends on driving patterns and road conditions, overall, a lot of us will like the fact that the Territory scores quite well in this area, which would bring down your cost of running down considerably.

Highway Performance

On Saudi highways, the Territory isn’t going to disappoint you either, because it does a great job of offering you everything that one would expect of an SUV.  It's 190 hp and 320 Nm of torque is a big advantage, comes into play for overtaking, and if you happen to cruise a little faster, no worry because it has a lot of that power to make your drive unforgettable. The Eco, Normal, and Sport drive modes are another key aspect where you get to balance efficiency and thrill, and equally important is the quiet cabin, which is taken care of by the acoustic hood, for your awesome highway cruising.

Ride and Handling

What defines the ride and handling is that the MacPherson strut front and multi-link rear suspension, essentially fine-tuned for KSA’s roads, take all types of imperfection terrains, and make sure you and/family enjoy a comfortable and smooth ride, no matter where you’re driving, city, highway or even some rough patches on the desert trail or smaller towns. The accurate steering and a low centre of gravity are two key elements for ensuring the ride and handling are nimble as well as quite effortless and relaxing.
