Here are two engine variants on offer on the Endy - the 3.2 and 2.2 litre Duratorq. Ford will use the TDCi badging also in India to designate the common rail attribute clearly. There will be just two trims - Trend and Titanium in multiple combinations: The 2.2 TDCi is available in Trend 2WD/4WD manual or 2WD automatic and Titanium 2WD automatic. The 3.2 TDCi is only available in 4WD automatic in Trend or Titanium avatars. The 2.2 litre TDCi has 157 bhp, which kicks in at a reasonable 3200 rpm.
Torque is great at 385 Nm. The manual gearbox is a 6 speed, and so is the AT - which is the 6R80 autobox from the new generation of Ford's F-Series pickups in the US. I have to say that the automatic is very good, and allows that huge torque to travel quickly to the wheels.
The gearbox is also self-learning if you will, meaning it starts to adapt to your driving style, and alters its performance to provide optimal power and torque. And for the most part I found that to be true, as the car did start to feel better as I went. Unless it was simply growing on me, and I was adapting to it, rather than the other way around! The lack of paddles though is the sore thumb for me.
