Count restylings inside their generation, not as extra generations.

1 generation (2004–2005) is two 4.0 AT versions, both 244 hp / 182 kW and 380 Nm, both Gasoline, 6 Inline, 4 valves per cylinder, boost No, Distributed injection (multi-point), fuel 92, Automatic 4-speed. One is RWD, one is AWD. Power is 61.0 hp per litre (244 hp / 3.998 l). 0–100, top speed, mpg, kerb weight, gross weight, ground clearance, tank and wheels are not measured.

2 generation (2005–2011, including 2 generation, restyling 2009–2011) is the widest used-car choice. Naturally aspirated 4.0 AT rises to 250 hp / 190 kW and 383 Nm — +6 hp and +3 Nm versus 1 generation, still 62.5 hp per litre. You pick drivetrain and gearbox, not engine size: RWD with Automatic 4-speed, or AWD with Automatic 6-speed. Restyling keeps those two and adds a Turbo 4.0 AT: 329 hp / 245 kW and 480 Nm in 2 generation (2005–2009), then 360 hp / 270 kW and 550 Nm in 2 generation, restyling (2009–2011). Both Turbo cars are AWD, Automatic 6-speed, fuel 92. Versus the 250 hp 4.0 AT, the 329 hp Turbo is +79 hp and +97 Nm (82.3 hp/l). The 360 hp Turbo is +110 hp and +167 Nm versus 250 hp, and +31 hp / +70 Nm versus the earlier Turbo (90.0 hp/l). That is the largest power gap in the whole Territory line.

3 generation (2011–2016, including 3 generation, restyling 2014–2016) drops AWD and Turbo. One 4.0 AT remains: 261 hp / 195 kW, 391 Nm, boost No, Automatic 6-speed, RWD. Versus 2 generation’s 250 hp 4.0 AT that is +11 hp and +8 Nm (65.3 hp/l). Versus the restyling Turbo 360 hp it is −99 hp and −159 Nm. Restyling does not change the measured specs versus 3 generation 2011–2014. Buy this generation only if you want the last 3998 cm³ RWD automatic and do not need AWD.

4 generation (2018-10 to 2022-08) is the break. Two versions share one engine: Gasoline Turbo 4 Inline, 1490 cm³, 140 hp / 102 kW at 4500-5200 rpm, 225 Nm at 1500-4000 rpm, compression 11.42, bore and stroke 79 x 76, Front, transverse, fuel 95, FWD, Independent, spring front and rear, Ventilated disc front, Disc rear. 1.5 MT is Manual 6-speed, kerb 1520 kg, tank 52 l, city 8.5 / highway 5.6 / mixed 6.7. 1.5 CVT is Variable, kerb 1610 kg, same tank and mixed 6.7, city 7.9 / highway 5.9. Versus any 3 generation 4.0 AT (261 hp, 391 Nm, 3998 cm³) this is −121 hp, −166 Nm and −2508 cm³. Specific output is higher: 94.0 hp/l versus 65.3. Kerb, tank and mpg exist only here.

5 generation (from 2022-09, stop not measured) is one 1.8 DCT: Gasoline 4 Inline, 1800 cm³, 187 hp / 137 kW, 320 Nm, Front, transverse, Robotic, FWD. Boost, fuel grade, gears, 0–100, top speed, mpg, tank, weights, clearance and wheels are not measured. Versus 4 generation’s 140 hp it is +47 hp, +95 Nm and +310 cm³ (103.9 hp/l). Versus 3 generation 4.0 AT 261 hp it is still −74 hp and −71 Nm, with 2198 cm³ less.

Searches for Ford Territory 2025 / 2026 / hybrid / USA / Mexico / Philippines / UAE / South Africa do not add specs here. Hybrid is not in the data. Price is not measured.

Specs: every version side by side

All names are as in the catalogue. Same name, different power, is listed separately.

Injection on every 4.0 AT is Distributed injection (multi-point). On 1.5 MT, 1.5 CVT and 1.8 DCT the feed system is not measured. Engine location on every 4.0 AT is not measured; on 1.5 MT, 1.5 CVT and 1.8 DCT it is Front, transverse.

Horsepower, torque and what the extra output buys

Peak catalogue power is the 2 generation, restyling 4.0 AT 360 hp / 550 Nm. Peak among naturally aspirated 4.0 AT is 3 generation 261 hp / 391 Nm. Peak among FWD cars is 1.8 DCT 187 hp / 320 Nm.

Arithmetic that matters when you choose:

• 1 generation 244 hp → 2 generation 250 hp: +6 hp (+2.5%), +3 Nm. Same 3998 cm³, same 6 Inline, boost still No. The real choice in 2 generation is RWD 4-speed versus AWD 6-speed, not the extra 6 hp.
• 2 generation NA 250 hp → Turbo 329 hp: +79 hp (+31.6%), +97 Nm (+25.3%). Same displacement, Turbo instead of No, AWD and Automatic 6. That is the first step if you want the old SUV to pull harder.
• Turbo 329 hp → restyling Turbo 360 hp: +31 hp (+9.4%), +70 Nm (+14.6%). Same name 4.0 AT, same AWD 6-speed. If the used car is 2009–2011 and you want the strongest Territory, this is the one; 360 − 244 = 116 hp above 1 generation.
• 2 generation 250 hp → 3 generation 261 hp: +11 hp, +8 Nm, but drive goes from a choice of RWD/AWD to RWD only, and Turbo disappears. You pay (in the spec sheet) for a small NA gain and lose the AWD/Turbo menu.
• 4 generation 140 hp versus 3 generation 261 hp: 140 / 261 = 54% of the power, 225 / 391 = 58% of the torque, 1490 / 3998 = 37% of the displacement. Specific output rises 94.0 versus 65.3 hp/l because the 4 Inline is Turbo.
• 5 generation 1.8 DCT 187 hp versus 1.5 MT/1.5 CVT 140 hp: +47 hp (+33.6%), +95 Nm (+42.2%). Versus 3 generation 261 hp you still have 72% of the power and 82% of the torque.

Weight per horsepower is only computable on 4 generation: 1.5 MT 1520 / 140 = 10.9 kg/hp; 1.5 CVT 1610 / 140 = 11.5 kg/hp. The Variable gearbox costs 90 kg on the same 140 hp. Kerb on every 4.0 AT and on 1.8 DCT is not measured, so kg/hp for those is not measured.

Performance, mpg and fuel

0–100 km/h is not measured on any version. Top speed is not measured on any version. Do not treat a missing time as “this SUV is slow” or “this SUV is fast”; it is not measured.

Mpg exists only on 4 generation, both mixed at 6.7:

• 1.5 MT: city 8.5, highway 5.6, mixed 6.7. Tank 52 l. Mixed range 52 / 6.7 × 100 ≈ 776 km if you hold that figure.
• 1.5 CVT: city 7.9, highway 5.9, mixed 6.7. Same 52 l, same mixed range. City is 0.6 lower than 1.5 MT (7.9 versus 8.5); highway is 0.3 higher (5.9 versus 5.6). If most of the kilometres are city, Variable wins the measured city number; if they are highway, Manual 6-speed wins the measured highway number. Mixed is a draw.

On every 4.0 AT and on 1.8 DCT, city / highway / mixed, tank and CO2 are not measured. Eco class is not measured anywhere. Fuel on all 4.0 AT is 92; on 1.5 MT and 1.5 CVT it is 95; on 1.8 DCT grade is not measured.

Engine oil capacity, oil spec, engine number location, mounts and bay layout are not measured.

Dimensions, weight, clearance

Body is SUV 5-doors on all seven catalogue rows.

Kerb: 1.5 MT 1520 kg; 1.5 CVT 1610 kg (+90 kg). All other versions: not measured. Gross weight: not measured. Ground clearance: not measured. Wheels: not measured. Dimensions in metres: not measured. Searches for Ford Territory dimensions 2013 / 2016 / 2022 / 2024 / 2025 / 2026 cannot be filled from this table.

Chassis that is measured is the same wording on every version: Independent, spring front, Independent, spring rear, Ventilated disc front, Disc rear. That does not distinguish generations. Compression 11.42 and 79 x 76 only appear on 1.5 MT and 1.5 CVT.

Problems and reliability

Failure rates, known faults and service intervals are not measured in this dataset. Reliability talk that is not a measured number is omitted. What the sheet does let you compare is complexity: Turbo appears on 2 generation 4.0 AT 329 and 360 hp and on 4 generation 1.5 MT / 1.5 CVT; boost is No on the other 4.0 AT; boost on 1.8 DCT is not measured. AWD exists only on named 4.0 AT rows; 3 generation, 4 generation and 5 generation in this catalogue are single-axle (RWD then FWD).

Which version to choose

Want the strongest Territory in the data: 2 generation, restyling 4.0 AT 360 hp / 550 Nm, Turbo, Automatic 6, AWD, 2009–2011. It is 110 hp and 167 Nm above the 250 hp 4.0 AT of the same years, and 99 hp above 3 generation’s 261 hp RWD car.

Want AWD without Turbo: 1 generation 4.0 AT 244 hp AWD (Automatic 4), or 2 generation / restyling 4.0 AT 250 hp AWD (Automatic 6). The 6-speed is the only gearbox difference on the NA AWD cars. 3 generation has no AWD row.

Want the last big naturally aspirated six and will accept RWD: 3 generation or 3 generation, restyling 4.0 AT 261 hp, Automatic 6, 2011–2016. Specs of restyling equal 3 generation; restyling does not buy extra hp or Nm.

Want the cheapest-to-run measured Ford Territory: 4 generation 1.5 MT or 1.5 CVT. Mixed 6.7 both. Pick 1.5 MT if highway 5.6 and 1520 kg matter (10.9 kg/hp). Pick 1.5 CVT if city 7.9 matters more than the extra 90 kg. Both are FWD, 140 hp, 225 Nm, fuel 95.

Want the current generation and more power than 140 hp: 5 generation 1.8 DCT 187 hp / 320 Nm, Robotic, FWD, from 2022-09. Mpg, tank, kerb and 0–100 are not measured, so you cannot prove it is more economical than 1.5 CVT from this catalogue — only that it has +47 hp and +95 Nm on 1800 cm³ versus 1490.

Do not choose by name alone. Every pre-2018 petrol row is called 4.0 AT. Separate them by hp: 244, 250, 261, 329, 360 — and by RWD versus AWD and 4-speed versus 6-speed.

Price, regional packs (Philippines, Mexico, USA, UAE, South Africa) and 2025/2026 facelift figures are not in the data, so they cannot decide the purchase here.
