A picture of the SUV that made it to the internet suggests a few notable elements. At the front, the car gets a different front grille that comes with multiple horizontal chrome lines. There's also a split headlamp setup with the conventional headlights and the DRLs are expected to be positioned higher. The spy image reveals this much about the SUV only. At the moment, Ford’s iteration of the XUV500 is codenamed as the CX757 and is aimed at bridging the gap between the EcoSport and the Endeavour. This will be the first time that the brand will be entering the segment competing against the likes of Tata Harrier and MG Hector. Also in the same price range would be the Hyundai Creta and Kia Seltos. While there has been no official word on the powertrain options of the car, speculations suggest that Ford’s iteration would be powered by a 2.2-litre mHawk diesel engine that will power the next-generation XUV500. Also, the petrol variants of the respective SUVs will be a 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol mStallion engine that made its debut with the all-new Thar. Both the engine options will get a manual as well as an automatic transmission option. Stay to tuned to IndianAutosBlog.com for the latest Ford updates and other four-wheeler news.
