2023 Ford Everest V6 review: Sport | Popular Isuzu MU-X 4WD rival put through 4x4 SUV off-road test
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 июл 2024
- The 2023 Ford Everest large SUV is a very popular 4WD, with the release of its second-generation model creating plenty of excitement thanks to its introduction of a turbo-diesel V6 engine option.
The 3.0-litre unit has 184kW of power and a whopping 600Nm of torque, putting it streets ahead of the rivalling Isuzu MU-X, Mitsubishi Pajero Sport and Toyota Fortuner on paper, with that trio making do with four-cylinder grunt.
But in this expert review, CarsGuide Contributing Journalist Marcus Craft puts the Everest V6's Sport variant through its paces off-road, to see if it's more than just a set of impressive numbers. After all, a longer wheelbase than its predecessor doesn't bode well for its 4x4 abilities.

Nice designer mud splashes on top of the engine and on the under side of the bonnet.
Thanks for a honest review.
Why compare against the MUx isn’t the Everest closer to the 300 series Landcrusier in size?
I don’t think I’ve ever heard a reporter say that the Landcrusier is handy capped by its dimensions.
All I hear is a reporters bias against the Everest when compared to the similar sized Landcrusier.
Then you have the significant price difference between the Landcruiser and the Everest.
This would indicate that the Everest is a better choice between those two vehicles.
The comparison seems to be based on them being UTE-based wagons.
Yes, and over $50k cheaper.
Spot on.
@@patrickmaher4909 and them some for spec vs spec
Car guide is owned by car sales that in turn is owned by toyota and all these fossils are toyota fan boys paid by toyota
We just got ours. It is nice just a bit bouncy tires a quite large. We had a territory before this. We realised the inside in the everest isn't as wide. Passenger and driver are more closer(less distance between) Definately consider different options first. Not cheap. I think model has emphasis more on height. Wish we got a Jeep Cherokee.
Could you please review tata suv, I'm planning to buy in couple of day.
Impressive 4WD
We will never see them s SUV in America
Will you be conducting a towing test? I'd love to see how you go with say, a 2.5t ATM caravan, how you set up the Everest, if it needs weight distribution hitches, revised suspension or whatever, to tow it safely.
I'm in the market to replace my 2020 Ford Ranger 3.2 Wildtrak. I've love the Everest Sport with 18" wheels, but my son-in-law tows our old van with his 2015 Everest and it needs a WDH, otherwise the arse drags on the ground, it pitches badly and steering is too vague.
I towed that van (he bought it off us) with the Jeep Grand Cherokee 3.0 V6 and it needed the WDH for the same reasons. However, the Ranger is fine towing without one. So, it's a toss-up between the Ranger V6 and the Everest V6.
Go to car expert just done all that
bro brought medic bags with him

Tows our 2.5ton van with ease
What is the turning circle like? I know a Prado turns so much better than a Hilux. Does it struggle because it's based on the Ranger platform?
Finally got mine, surprisingly pretty good, imo better than the lux
Test the 2.0 variant
So it's hamstrung by its dimensions and needs 18 inch wheels and tyres? I think I got that the first time but just to be sure, does it need 18 inch wheels and tyres and is it hamstrung by its dimensions? I'm not sure if I got it the 6th time.
Not sure if id be silly going from my 2015 Touareg with far better fuel economy to the everest.... must go test drive one this week if im gonna spend 82k.....
Is there any advantage keeping the 20 inch tyre package as we would not be going off road.
Yes 20inch is best for city and highway driving. Just not good for off roading as there is no clearance sidewall to deflate the tires and not enough clearance for the diff. If you are not off roading, keep the 20s.
What about if you’re doing just a bit of off roading. ie beach run
@@brisal88
There is absolutely no practical benefit to the 21 inch rims.
Unless you modded the Everest engine for racing
Anyone serious about off roading in any brand of vehicle would likely get custom wheel and tires so to constantly detract points for wheels and tires is very short sighted as it is not marketed purely for off road bashing. It is sold to families primarily.
Why can’t we get this in the states?!
Sport owner of three weeks (Demo with 3,500ks)
Haven’t taken it off road as yet.
The claimed fuel figures are not achievable, Ford must have driven this vehicle on a decline with a tail wind.
Another gripe is the speakers, totally woeful for a 70k plus car.
You will find the fuel consumption improves once you have done 20k kms.
@Patrick Maher our Sport has done 19k and sitting around 10.5l/100 avg. Getting 16-17l/100 towing 2.2T caravan.
@@smaldo19 Not bad
@@smaldo19 how do you go with setting up the Everest to tow? Does it need a weight distribution hitch? Son-in-law's '15 Everest does. Too unstable without it.
@Marts Tee didn't have to change anything and it tows well. About 190-200kg on the ball and not much weight in the back. Much more and I think you'll need different springs.
Recon if you need a weight distribution hitch you've got other issues going on.
after seeing new prado i think i will go for Everest
no hhahahahhaha
good decision
Back to India 🇮🇳
The tailgate opening seems a bit small and high to put things into.
I’d love to know where you can get one for 70k. 82k everywhere I’ve enquired
Same here 82 in Perth 2 weeks ago.
I ordered in June 22, it arrived late February 23, I paid $69070. Add on-road cost’s including ‘Luxury car’ tax and the total came to about $78900. *Sport Version with tow pack premium paint
It’s a shame that it has to use AdBlue…….the Ranger doesn’t 👍
Because it works ask toyota how they are going with their systems
After 3000km, I’ve only added around 3L of Adblue. Not really an issue (for me anyway). Will probably use more when towing
Thats because the Ranger is classified as a Light Duty Truck and the Everest a Passenger Vehicle. Emissions Regulations differ which drives the need for Adblue.
The Wildtrak X does use Addblue 😊😊
$70k?...not any more!
Fuel is owner dependent. I have the latest Subaru turbo. I average under 9L. However many others average 12. Neither are wrong.
he brought medic bags with him!!!!🤔🤔
Well it’s certainly miles in front of anything that the profit over public safety department toyota offers

Got a patreon? Ill send a few bucks for new daks
Key stats we'd like to see on screen and comparison with Prado 150:
2023 Everest Sport V6
L/W/H/WB/GC
4914/1923/1841/2900/226
AA/ROA/DA/Weight
30.2°/21.9°/23°/2454kg
2023 Prado 150
4995/1885/1850/2790/220
32°/22°/25°/2225kg
Sounds like official fuel figures are complete B/S. People i know who have one confirm this. Would rather my 2022 Fortuner, sensible screen size. Good wheelbase dimensions. Plenty of power at 150 kw and 500nm with currently 8.6l per 100, diff lock in rear, good traction control and 17 inch rims to air down and bag out when needed.
5:14
4,500ks down, sitting at 11.9l/100k
Driving with the upmost conservatism.
I doubt I'll see a figure under 10.
And a death trap noisey no NVH and never actually been ancap tested,
i am feeling lazy
No
yes
Good for bonfire
Ah yes Ford copying Subaru no surprises there lol
no
