The new Ford Everest 2015 will make its debut on the Zimbabwean market in the first quarter of 2016, where its rugged, sculptural design is expected to reflect an unshakeable toughness to its competitors.

Ford Everest 2015 has in reality been crafted and styled for suitable convenience in Ford’s SUV family member. The vehicle blends strength, smart features and style to bring consumers a versatile SUV with true off road capability.

“With the all-new Ford Everest, we are launching an extremely capable and competitive premium

SUV that performs equally well as a comfortable and refined family vehicle or taking on the roughest terrains,” said Ford Motor Company Sub-Saharan Africa general marketing manager Mrs Tracey Delate.

“The Everest is a completely new vehicle with a host of first class features, providing unmatched value in its segment,” she said.

“The new Everest represents Ford’s commitment to meet the highest customer expectations. From the very beginning we set targets and with the Everest we have raised the bar for this vehicle in design and capability, with advanced technologies for a smarter, safer and more capable vehicle,” said Mrs Delate.

I attended the Ford Go Further event in Johannesburg recently where different Ford brands were on show and i got the opportunity to experience this new machine. It was a worthwhile experience that led to the manifestation of fanaticism to cars.

The new Ford Everest was designed from the ground up with the durability to take on the most inhospitable environments. One of the toughest SUVs in its segment, the Everest has a body on frame design, assuring the torsional strength required for challenging terrains.

Together with an intelligent four wheel drive system, an active transfer case with torque on demand and best in class ground clearance of 225mm and water-wading capability of 800mm, the Everest helps drivers navigate difficult terrains with ease.

For ultimate capability, the advanced new Terrain Management System gives drivers four settings ,Normal, Snow, Gravel/Grass, Sand and Rock that alter the vehicle’s throttle response, transmission, intelligent four wheel drive system and traction control to confidently tackle any situation.

Thanks to its coil spring front and rear suspension and a Watt’s linkage on the rear axle, the all new Ford Everest provides a comfortable, stable ride with agile and predictable handling on the road, maintaining Ford’s fun to drive DNA.

The all new Ford Everest is one of the most technologically advanced SUVs on the market, and builds on Ford’s global expertise in the utility segment.

The latest generation of Ford’s in-car connectivity solution recognises 10 000 natural voice commands to control the car’s entertainment system, climate control and connected mobile devices.

Ford Everest also boasts an eight inch touch screen with colour coded corners for easy menu navigation and the entertainment system features a top end 10 speaker sound system with an integrated sub woofer, providing accurate sound reproduction.

The vehicle also offers advanced features, including roll stability control and an electronic stability program that works with traction control to help the driver stay in control.

The Ford Everest’s bold exterior presence is paired with a modern interior that makes use of refined materials and emphasizes horizontal lines to create a comfortable, harmonious environment for up to seven adult occupants.
