Overview
The 2025 Ford Territory is a compact SUV that has rapidly gained popularity in the Philippines since its local launch, offering a compelling combination of turbo power, spacious interior, and modern tech features at a competitive price. Powered by a 1.5L EcoBoost turbocharged engine producing 160 hp and 248 Nm of torque — significantly more powerful than most naturally aspirated compact SUVs — the Territory is paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The Ford Territory price Philippines ranges from ₱1,335,000 for the Titanium to ₱1,625,000 for the Sport variant, positioning it as an accessible entry into the Ford SUV lineup. Its key differentiators include one of the widest cabin dimensions in the segment at 1,935mm, a generous 448L trunk, and a panoramic sunroof on Titanium X and Sport variants. The Territory appeals to buyers who want turbo performance and premium features without stepping up to the more expensive EcoSport replacement price bracket.
Expressway Driving Review
The Ford Territory is a capable expressway cruiser that punches above typical compact SUVs in highway performance. The 1.5L EcoBoost turbo engine delivers 160 hp and 248 Nm of torque, providing confident power for merging onto NLEX, SLEX, and Skyway at speed, and easy overtaking at 80-100 km/h. The 7-speed dual-clutch transmission shifts smoothly at cruise speeds and keeps engine RPM low for a relaxed highway experience, though it can hesitate during low-speed stop-and-go at toll plazas. Interior refinement is above average for the price — the cabin is wide and comfortable for long drives, though wind noise becomes noticeable above 110 km/h due to the SUV profile. The 448L trunk is one of the most generous in the compact SUV segment, easily accommodating luggage for a weekend getaway. Fuel efficiency on the expressway sits at approximately 14 km/L on gasoline, translating to around ₱280-300 per 100 km — adequate but not class-leading. The main limitation is the complete absence of ADAS features — no adaptive cruise, no lane keep, no AEB — which means the driver carries the full workload on long expressway drives. Compared to the Honda HR-V (which offers Honda SENSING standard), the Territory trades safety tech for more cabin space and turbo torque at a lower price.
