Ford Territory Hybrid tops small utility hybrid sales

Ford Philippines said the Territory Hybrid has become the best-selling small utility hybrid vehicle in the country, based on Chamber of Automotive Manufacturers of the Philippines, Inc. data covering January to May 2026.

The Territory Hybrid posted 2,226 units sold during the first five months of the year, more than 500 units ahead of the next best-selling model in the small utility hybrid vehicle category, according to official CAMPI figures.

The strong start extends the momentum of the model after its local launch in August 2025. Ford said the Territory Hybrid passed the 1,000-unit sales mark in just over three months and ended its launch year with 1,645 units sold.

Pedro Simoes, managing director of Ford Philippines, said the result validates the company’s electrification strategy and reflects the response of Filipino buyers to the Territory nameplate.

“The remarkable sales performance of the Ford Territory Hybrid is a clear testament to how deeply this nameplate resonates with Filipino customers who are ready to embrace electrified mobility,” Simoes said.

The Territory Hybrid uses a full hybrid system that pairs a gasoline engine with an electric motor. Ford said the setup delivers a fuel economy rating of 19.6 kilometers per liter and a driving range of up to 1,000 kilometers per tank.

In the Department of Energy’s 2025 Fuel Eco-Run, the Territory Hybrid posted a fuel economy rating of 23.71 kilometers per liter.

The SUV is powered by a 1.5-liter I-4 dedicated hybrid engine matched with a two-speed dedicated hybrid transmission and a 1.83-kilowatt-hour lithium-ion NCM high-voltage battery. The system produces up to 150 PS and 230 Nm from the engine, along with up to 218 PS and 315 Nm from the electric motor.

The hybrid system can operate through EV, series, parallel and energy recovery modes. Ford said the setup helps improve efficiency and torque delivery, especially in stop-and-go city driving.

Drivers can choose from Eco, Normal and Sport drive modes. The Territory Hybrid also offers selectable power steering settings through Comfort, Normal and Sport modes.

Simoes said the model gives customers a balance of fuel efficiency, technology and performance without requiring a major change in driving habits.

Ford also highlighted its ownership support services, including Mobile Service Vehicle, Express Service, Online Service Booking, Pick-up and Delivery, and Service Price Calculator.

The Ford Territory Hybrid Trend starts at P1,399,000. For June, the Trend variant comes with P40,000 cash savings or a P79,000 all-in down payment, while the Territory Hybrid Titanium X is offered with P50,000 cash savings or an P89,000 all-in down payment.
