Ford Elevates the People-Mover Game with All-New Tourneo Custom Sport and Luxurious Titanium X

  • Tourneo Custom range set to expand with addition of dynamic Sport and premium Titanium X derivatives in short-wheelbase configuration
  • Sport adds design flair, including a sporty grille, bumper, rear spoiler, decal package and standard 17-inch wheels, combined with a higher level of interior specification over the existing Trend model
  • Luxuriously appointed Titanium X gains the premium, more exclusive package with an even higher level of standard features

The latest-generation Ford Tourneo Custom arrived on the scene last year with all-new levels of technology, comfort and versatility. Ford South Africa is now expanding its line-up with two exciting models; the dynamic Tourneo Custom Sport, as well as the range-topping Tourneo Custom Titanium X, both of which raise the bar thanks to premium levels of sophistication and design.

The new additions retain the Tourneo Custom’s exceptional space and configurability but elevate the people-mover segment with trend-setting style and status. They are both offered in short wheelbase configurations but retain the eight-seater layout, where the Active and Trend use the long wheelbase platform with additional luggage capacity.

“The Tourneo Custom has a long heritage around the world of providing outstanding practicality, spaciousness and comfort, making it ideally suited to personal use as a family vehicle, and for business use. With the introduction of the new high-series models we are building on the rational benefits of the Tourneo Custom platform while adding desirability, style and premium luxury to the portfolio,” says Sunil Sewmohan Executive Director of Product Marketing, at Ford South Africa.

“High-series Tourneo Custom buyers are image-conscious professionals who require a vehicle that is both a practical tool and a reflection of their success. It’s also the ideal solution for executive shuttles and VIP transportation,” Sewmohan says. “The Tourneo Custom Sport is a more dynamic performance-oriented model with a dash of athletic design flair, while the Titanium X is our premium halo product that blends sophistication and luxury.”

The current-generation Tourneo Custom’s improved vehicle architecture, independent rear suspension, and powerful engine deliver a smooth, comfortable ride and impressive fuel efficiency. Both models are powered by Ford’s single-turbocharged four-cylinder diesel engine that delivers 125kW of power and maximum torque of 390Nm, compared to the 100kW/360Nm outputs of the Active and Trend derivatives.

Drive is delivered to the front wheels via an eight-speed automatic transmission, with five drive modes to optimise performance and efficiency, comprising Normal, Eco, Slippery, Tow/Haul and Sport. Furthermore, advanced driver assistance features such as Adaptive Cruise Control enhance both convenience and safety.

Tourneo Custom Sport

As the more dynamic addition to the Tourneo Custom range, the new Sport model echoes many of the eye-catching design cues that were introduced on the Transit Custom Sport van.

This includes the distinctive Sport honeycomb-style grille and full body-colour front bumper, Sport body kit with an assertive rear spoiler, as well as bold dual black and blue sport stripes that run from the front bumper over the vehicle and down the rear door and bumper. This is complemented by side decals that add to the more athletic appearance, along with standard LED tail lamps. Fitted as standard are 17-inch sport alloy wheels, with the option of 19-inch versions.

Inside the passengers are treated to the Sport trim level’s more vibrant character, featuring blue accent stripes for the seats and partial leather trim. This is matched to premium piano black surrounds for the multi-function display and centre console. The standard infotainment system includes the large 13‑inch landscape touchscreen which is equipped with Ford’s SYNC®4 communication and infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, along with 10 speakers.

The Mobile Office package is available as an option, comprising a stowable accessory tray table, enhanced cabin lighting, laptop or tablet stowage between the seats, additional USB connections, an AMPS accessory docking slot, and a convenient integrated rubbish bin.

Furthermore, the Tourneo Custom Sport benefits from the inclusion of an extensive range of driver assistance features, including Adaptive Cruise Control, front and reverse parking aids, Reverse Brake Assist, Collision Mitigation, Ford’s Blind Spot Information System (BLIS), dual heated mirrors and a leather-trimmed steering wheel.

Tourneo Custom Titanium X

In keeping with its premium positioning, the new Titanium X stands out with a classy front grille treatment, complemented by Matrix LED headlamps and striking multi-spoke 19-inch alloy wheels.  

Upon entering the cabin, through dual powered side doors with the Close Assist feature, occupants are greeted by an impressive near full-length panoramic roof, which is available as part of an optional Luxe Pack that also adds a 14-speaker B&O sound system and ambient lighting.

In addition to the feature enhancements on the Sport, the Titanium X gains a powered front passenger seat and heated second row seats, as well as the option of adding the Mobile Office pack for even greater practicality. A 360-degree camera is available in the Titanium X, further aiding visibility and manoeuvrability in tight spaces.

Pricing (includes VAT):

  • Tourneo Custom 2.0L SWB Bus Sport 8AT          R1 218 000
  • Tourneo Custom 2.0L SWB Titanium X 8AT         R1 264 000

The recommended Retail Price includes a six-year/90 000km Ford Optional Service Plan, four-year/120 000km Ford warranty, four-year/unlimited distance Roadside Assistance and five-year/unlimited distance corrosion warranty. In addition, over the counter (OTC) parts and service parts warranty (SPW) are covered for two-year/unlimited distance. The recommended service interval is 15 000km or annually, whichever occurs first.

Customers have the option of purchasing Ford Protect Service or Maintenance Plan upgrades up to eight years or 165 000km. The warranty can be extended up to seven years or 200 000km, while the Roadside Assistance can be extended for an additional one or two years.
