Hot on the heels of the facelifted Ranger, we find the updated Ford Everest.

The Everest will also be made available with the all-new 2.0-litre biturbo diesel engine from the Raptor. It’s likely to be feisty, thanks to 157kW and 500Nm of torque.

In addition to the all-new engine, the Everest will also get a new 10-speed automatic. This is brilliant for fuel consumption, which Ford claims is as little as 7.1l/100km.

As is the case with the Ranger, the Everest will benefit from a number of technological upgrades, including autonomous braking in emergency situations, pedestrian detection and active cruise control.

It never felt like it was working hard, and after 2 400 kilometres, neither did I.
