Ford Everest updated in Thailand, available with 180 or 213 PS
The Ford Everest has been around for a long time and it was only a matter of time before they launch an updated version to meet the renewed competition from Toyota, Mitsubishi, Isuzu, Chevrolet and Nissan.
Now that the time has come, at least for Thailand where Everest is made.
Ford has just released the update and upgrade of their pickup truck (PPV). The Everest, presumably the 2019 model, will benefit from some design changes in the form of a new three-bar chrome grille on a honeycomb design, as well as a bumper Redesigned lower body. The Titanium + variant of Everest will receive new 20-inch alloy wheels, while the Titanium models will retain their 18-inch wheels.
Safety will also be enhanced by an Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB) system for Everest Titanium +. Similar to the automatic braking system from other manufacturers, the version in Everest uses a radar and a front camera to detect automobiles and pedestrians; it will brake if a collision is imminent and feels no reaction from the driver.
The biggest change is the replacement of the 3.2-liter 2.2-liter turbo-diesel engines. These two engines were removed from the Everest range and replaced by the 2.0-liter EcoBlue turbodiesel with two separate power outputs, the first of which is a 180 hp, 420 Nm intercooled turbo diesel engine. This engine will replace the DuraTORQ engine. 2.2-liter TDCI
The other version of the engine will replace the 3.2-liter engine; a 2.0-liter EcoBlue bi-turbo diesel engine developing 213 PS and 500 Nm of torque. If this sounds familiar to you, it's because the same engine is used in the high-performance Ford Ranger Raptor pickup.
Another major change for Everest is the use of a 10-speed automatic that replaces the 6-speed unit. 2019 Ford Everest gets Ranger Raptor engine, 10-speed automatic "width =" 640 "height =" 360 "/>
The Thai beginnings of the new Everest are significant because many Ford vehicles for the ASEAN market are Other countries will follow, according to standard Ford practices.
