The South American/EU Escort and the North American Escort were BOTH sold concurrently in Chile. Checking used car sites, and based off bux48’s previous findings, confirms both Escorts being sold. However, I only see MKIV & MKVI in Chile. I do not see the MKV. It seems our 1993-1996 body Escort was sold there too. So maybe the MKIV was sold until 1992. Then American Escort 1993-1996 and BR/RA Escort 1997+? Then maybe not built/sold concurrently.
