FactThe SY update made the Territory the first Australian-built car ever fitted with a reversing camera.
The SY of October 2005 was primarily a mechanical upgrade with no significant visual change: the revised 4.0-litre Barra now made 190 kW (255 hp) and 383 N·m (282 lb·ft), the four-speed automatic was retained for RWD and AWD models gained a six-speed ZF 6HP26 (slightly better economy), and it was the first Australian-built vehicle with a reverse parking camera (optional on the TS, standard on the Ghia). The SY II facelift, revealed at the 2009 Australian International Motor Show in Melbourne and on sale that May, had a mildly restyled front end, improved interior trim and suspension (a revised front suspension addressed failing lower ball joints kept under constant tension) with unchanged powertrains except for the axing of the 270 kW FPV F6X; limited editions included the TX-based SR (February 2006, re-released June 2008) and SR2 (October 2008) and the TS Limited Edition (December 2009 and October 2010), and from 11 January 2010 the whole range earned a full five-star ANCAP score. A planned diesel was postponed in favour of the turbo petrol variant because of the Australian preference for performance variants.

Owning one
We don’t estimate running costs for a car like this. What it costs depends on its condition, its specialist and how it is driven, and an average would mislead.

In China this car is the Equator Sport; exported, it becomes the Territory, and South Africa became its first right-hand-drive market.
Never sold in Australia, it was still tuned at Ford's Geelong proving ground, and underneath it is a reworked JMC Yusheng S330.
Did you know the SZ Territory drove Ford Australia past a big milestone? In 2012 a white TX TDCi RWD model became the 150,000th Territory built.
FPV's first non-Falcon model was an SUV: the F6X Territory, killed off within a year.
Ford's turbo Territory came one way only: all-wheel drive. The 245 kW turbo six was never offered with the base model's rear-drive layout.
The SY update made the Territory the first Australian-built car ever fitted with a reversing camera.
The Territory's interior designer took his inspiration from a knife — and the result included flexing cup holders and a dedicated handbag holder.
