Checking out the levels of the Everest
Just like the mountain that it was named after, the Ford Everest has come a long, long way from its humble beginnings.
More truck-like in appearance and performance, its 2003 first-generation model now feels more like a distant cousin twice removed than simply a model that’s a generation old.
The anticipation for the second generation was nothing short of intense and it has not disappointed. Even as a far second fiddle to the Ranger in terms of sales at 4,165 units in 2019, it still sold almost twice as many as the third-ranked unit (EcoSport).
We take a look-see at what all the hype is about and outline the four different variants of the Ford Everest.

It has ventilated front disc brakes and rear disc brakes, standard rear differential, and electric power-assisted steering with Pull Drift Compensation Technology.
