Ford has expanded its Territory SUV range with a new Dark Edition, which is intended to offer buyers a more distinct-looking SUV and mild interior upgrades.

Positioned above the current Titanium trim, the Dark Edition doesn’t change anything mechanically. It still features the 1.8-litre turbocharged EcoBoost engine, producing 138 kW and 318 N.m, which is sent to the front wheels via a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox. The four drive modes (Eco, Normal, Sport and Mountain) carry over unchanged, too. The visual differences are where this edition aims to stand out – black finishes replace most of the standard chrome and silver trim, including the grille, mirror caps, roof rails, and skid plates. The 19-inch wheels are painted black, and there’s a dark “Territory” badge at the rear. Paint options include white, grey, black, and red.
Inside, the cabin gets a charcoal headliner, black dashboard and door inserts, and black leather upholstery with contrasting orange stitching. Two 12.3-inch displays handle the instrument cluster and infotainment, while wireless phone charging, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto are standard. USB ports are scattered throughout the cabin.

A key addition is a 360-degree camera, which joins an already long list of driver assistance systems. These include adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go, blind spot monitoring, lane-keep assist, and automatic emergency braking. Six airbags are standard, and Ford continues to offer its usual mix of warranty and service plans, with optional extensions.
