Ford Car Insurance

On July 23, 1903, when Dr. Pfennig from Chicago bought the 1st ever Ford car called “Model A” with a 2-cylinder engine, he didn’t know that he was creating history. 

Headquartered in Michigan, US, Ford is the world’s 5th biggest and America’s 2nd biggest automobile company, with a glorious history of 117 years. Legendary entrepreneur and business magnate Henry Ford founded this car company, which is right now the world’s 2nd largest family-owned company.

Over the years, Ford has launched and sold several best-selling car brands and models, which include disruptive innovations such as Crossover SUV, Hybrid SUV, Pickup trucks, family cars, and more. 

Popular Ford Car Models 

Ford EcoSport

Powered with a 1.5L Ti-VCT petrol engine along with a 1.5L TDCi diesel engine, Ford EcoSport was among the first ‘compact’ SUVs to have launched in India and quickly became a best-seller due to its stylish looks, and rugged exteriors. The introduction of features such as cruise control, auto headlamps, automatic transmission in a compact SUV were some of Ford’s innovations, which clicked with the Indian buyers.
