EVEREST SPORT DIALS UP THE TECH

The final update for the Ford Everest happens over-the-air.

It was a slightly incongruent sequence of events; there we were thumbing the latest connectivity features within the FordPass app - now available in the current Everest line-up - while around the world Ford was simultaneously announcing the all-new Everest. Never before has a product felt so new and so archaic in parallel but it did highlight that the Everest has led a very full and healthy life, right to the very end. The Everest range has undergone a number of small tweaks and model enhancements over its lifecycle, including the introduction of the 210hp bi-turbo engine paired with the 10-speed gearbox (which also delivered the final chop to the 3.2-liter engine), the introduction of a 4x4 model in XLT guise in 2020 and the Sport derivative a year later. The final salvo comes with the standard integration of FordPass.
