Given its price, in a sense you could argue the Everest deserves a better engine than the five-cylinder diesel under the bonnet.

Pros Secure dynamics Well-controlled ride Capable drivetrain
Cons Limp power delivery Dim headlights No steering reach adjustment
The Ford Everest has an excellent diesel engine, can seat up to seven, and offers the option of full-time, dual-range, four-wheel drive.Ford has done a good job of hiding the ute DNA: the Everest is comfortable on all roads but still very capable off road in 4WD trim.
Pros Drives well on road, and excellent off road.
Cons Ride and handling less polished than in passenger-car based SUVs.
