New Ford SUV Details Revealed for 2024, Powered by Evolved Skyactiv-XT Engine and Pure Electric Platforms
Ford is rumored to be unveiling a new subcompact crossover, built on the same EPA platform as the upcoming CX-6, with potential sales markets in Asia-Pacific and Europe, where it will be denominated as the EX-6. Additionally, Ford Plans its 2027 Skyactiv-Z powertrain for the next-generation CX5.
Expected Powertrain Options
Ford will reportedly offer a new electric crossover product alongside pure electric variants. As such, we expect to see hybrid options with 1.5L turbocharged engines (160kW output) and single-phase systems with larger battery storage units, which together would be combined with an estimated driving range between 480km/600km.
Production Platform
Ford Epa is being used as the base platform for its latest release, this has a global impact and it's more likely that we'll see a wider availability of it in several countries. As mentioned earlier, the upcoming product could be sold across all major car markets including Asia-Pacific and Europe with its expected name which would appear as CX-6e while on Chinese Markets as EX-6.
Release Timeline
Ford has confirmed plans to unveil another new Skyactiv Z engine by 2027 but will instead bring back turbocharged engines for use in its next crossover. This could give rise to an entirely new driving experience with an emphasis on power and efficiency, which aligns well with its recent market efforts.
Performance Features
For the newly released electric vehicle, we can anticipate both single-phase as well as dual-stage transmissions as a result of Ford's advancements in Skyactiv-X technology and Skyactiv-G improvements respectively. With 190 kW maximum output for pure-electric models powered by Ford's extensive battery technologies – there is a clear indication that this new offering promises substantial fuel efficiency.
Upcoming Productivity And Availability
As of now we don't know the release date and pricing plan yet once its available, it would make more sense to find out further details as part of overall availability.
