2011 Ford Territory - Click above for high-res image gallery
Ford (http://www.autoblog.com/make/ford) has finally unleashed information on the production version of the 2011 Territory (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/territory), giving us all the skinny on what Australian buyers can look forward to when the crossover hits showrooms this May. The party gets started with an all-new exterior that makes use of Ford's kudzu-like kinetic design language. The Territory now wears a fascia that's reminiscent of the new global Focus and more than a few Aston Martin products, and the rear produces a cohesive look thanks to integrated glass in the rear quarters and hatch.
The Territory will be available in three configurations when it lands: TX, TS and Titanium and while there's preciously little information available about what will power those machines, we do know that a diesel mill will find its way under the hood. There's also some indication that the CUV won't be available with a manual transmission no matter what engine you opt for.
Inside, Ford has graced the new Territory with an interior that borrows a bit from the Falcon (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/falcon). A large LCD touch screen dominates the dash, and the center stack looks to be cleanly designed. Hit the jump for the full press release.
