Ford Tourneo Custom range gains new base model and flagship AWD
Realigned Tourneo Custom range now spans four variants, with the option of all-wheel drive being a first-time ever for South Africa.
Ford has expanded the Tourneo Custom range with the introduction of a new Kombi variant and all-wheel drive option on the top-tier Titanium X. The Kombi, priced below R1-million, replaces the previous Trend model as the range's entry-level offering. Despite being a seven-seater, it lacks several features found in the discontinued Trend, such as LED headlights, 16-inch alloy wheels, colour-coded mirror caps, and advanced sound systems.
The Kombi's standard features include 16-inch steel wheels, LED daytime running lights, rain-sensing wipers, folding electric mirrors, auto on/off headlights, dual-zone climate control, a six-speaker sound system, a multi-function steering wheel, an eight-inch digital instrument cluster, keyless entry, a 13-inch infotainment display, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a six-airbag safety package.
Optional driver assistance features include cruise control, parking sensors, a reverse camera, Collision Mitigation Braking, Lane Keep Assist, and Traffic Sign Recognition.
The Titanium X, the range's top model, maintains the same specifications as its front-wheel drive counterpart, with an optional all-wheel drive system. It features 19-inch alloy wheels, Adaptive Matrix LED headlights, rain-sensing wipers, imitation leather upholstery, tri-zone climate control, electric dual-sliding side doors, heated front seats, and an eight-inch instrument cluster.
It also comes with a 13-inch infotainment display, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a range of safety and driver assistance systems, including eight airbags, tyre pressure monitoring, parking sensors, a 360-degree camera system, and various advanced driver assistance features.
Both the Kombi and Titanium X Titanium X come with a four-year/120,000km warranty and six-year/90,000km service plan, with an option to extend the warranty. They are available in seven and eight colours, respectively. The Tourneo Custom range remains unchanged with the introduction of these new models, with the Sport variant remaining untouched.
