New Ford Everest gets two engine options

WHEN THE NEW FORD EVEREST arrives, buyers will have a choice of two different engines: a 3-litre V6 turbo diesel and the more familiar 2-litre bi-turbo diesel.

Also new is the modern interior design and inclusion of the SYNC 4A-enabled 10.1-inch and 12-inch centre screens along with the fully digital instrument cluster. The addition of helpful features like a reach and height-adjustable steering wheel and improvements to SYNC will make living with the 2022 Everest a more enjoyable and stress-free experience. 

A new engine will broaden the new Everest’s appeal

Powertrains

Everest’s 3.0L V6 Turbo Diesel engine, pumping out an impressive 184kW of power and 600Nm of torque, will be perfect for towing. Producing 154kW and 500Nm, the tried and trusted 2.0L Bi-Turbo Diesel continues to impress, providing an excellent balance of pulling power and fuel economy. Both will be exclusively backed by Ford’s 10-speed automatic transmission.

Everest is offered with two drivetrain options – 4×2 RWD is available on Ambiente and Trend; while 4×4 variants across the range feature an advanced full-time four-wheel drive system that uses an electronically controlled on-demand two-speed electromechanical transfer case (EMTC) with selectable drive modes.

Everest’s e-Shifter brings a new level of high-tech control to your fingertips with optimised performance for different surfaces, road conditions and vehicle usage.

The Everest excels off road

Drive Modes 

On-road

  • Normal – designed for comfort, fuel efficiency and drivability
  • Eco – maximises fuel economy by delivering progressive power and early gear shifts, together with more economical cruise control tuning and tailored climate control strategies
  • Tow / Haul – for use whilst towing or carrying heavy loads. Optimises gear shift timing to maintain best power delivery and engine braking and reduce shift busyness
  • Slippery – for more confident driving on slippery or uneven surfaces

Off-road
