Following the launch of the updated Ranger, Ford South Africa has released pricing for the revised Everest range. The updated Everest introduces a more affordable, new entry-level derivative – in the shape of the Active model – to the lineup; replacing the XLT variant available before.

The newly introduced Active variant employs the firm’s 2.0-litre single-turbo four-cylinder diesel engine, which produces 125 kW and 405 N.m of torque. Power is delivered to the road via either a 4×2 or 4×4 drivetrain, both of which paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission. Active spec features touchscreen infotainment with wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, a wireless smartphone charging tray, cloth-upholstered seats, replete with eight-way electric adjustment for the driver’s seat and four-way manual adjustment for the front passenger, and adaptive cruise control. A rear-view camera setup, supplemented by fore and aft park distance sensors, is also present.

Sport, Wildtrak and Platinum spec remain, and employ Ford’s 3.0-litre V6 turbodiesel, which churns out 184 kW and 600 N.m – the latter delivered to the road via a four-wheel drivetrain coupled with a 10-speed automatic transmission. With the update, Sport trim has gained a 360-degree surround-view camera system, tyre pressure monitoring and blind-spot monitoring. Wildtrak grade features several model-specific exterior elements, including black trim for the front bumper. The Wildtrak model’s third-row seats can be folded down electrically. Matrix LED headlamps are also included as standard. Platinum trim includes 10-way electrically adjustable front seats with heating and ventilation, a heated steering wheel, a 12-speaker Bang & Olufsen audio system, and a 12-inch digital instrument cluster. The Platinum rolls on 21-inch alloy wheels.
