Ford Everest V6: The 4×4 Built For The Middle East

A Region-Exclusive 2.7L EcoBoost® V6 Arrives Across The GCC

The rugged and dependable Ford Everest gets a new engine, and it’s one you’ll only find in the Middle East. The 2.7-litre twin-turbo EcoBoost® V6 is now available across the GCC, developed specifically for the conditions drivers here face every day, from soft desert sand to long, fully loaded motorway runs.

A New Engine For A Region That Asked For It

The Ford Everest has earned its reputation across the Middle East as a rugged, dependable family SUV, one that thrives equally on daily commutes and deep desert sand. The Middle East-exclusive 2.7-litre EcoBoost® V6 engine is a significant addition to the lineup.

This isn’t an engine built for a spec sheet. It was engineered because regional drivers demanded more low-end muscle: the kind of effortless torque that makes a difference on soft sand, steep inclines, and fully loaded motorway journeys. The twin-turbo V6 delivers an official 310 horsepower and 542Nm of torque through a quick-shifting 10-speed automatic transmission.

Available across the entire Everest range, the new V6 gives buyers real choice in power, joining the 2.0L turbodiesel (Active) and 2.3L EcoBoost® (Active, Sport and Platinum) four-cylinder engines.

What 542Nm Of Torque Delivers In The Real World

On open highways and desert dunes, the Everest’s V6 torque translates directly to effortless capability. It means pulling cleanly through soft sand without hesitation, merging onto high-speed motorways with a full cabin of seven, and tackling steep mountain trails with total composure. These are everyday scenarios for Middle East drivers, and 542 Nm means handling all of them with power to spare.

Backing up that performance is a genuine 3,500kg towing capacity with an integrated trailer brake controller, making light work of hauling boats, dirt bikes or camping trailers. For families who pack heavy and travel far, the V6 turns what used to require careful planning into a straightforward weekend.

Selectable drive modes, including a specialised Sand mode and the Tremor-exclusive Rock Crawl mode, automatically calibrate throttle response, traction control and power distribution across the 4WD system to match the terrain beneath you.

Tremor vs. Platinum: Choose Your Character

The Everest lineup has been refreshed, with four new models, including two flagship variants, each with a distinct personality.

Everest Active is joined by the new Everest Sport, which combines its stealthy appearance with off-road capability. It’s fitted with 20-inch wheels, Zone Lighting, all-terrain drive modes and a dedicated off-road screen that helps you to navigate obstacles off-piste.

The new Everest V6 Tremor is purpose-built for off-road. Factory Bilstein® position-sensitive dampers, 17-inch wheels with all-terrain tyres, underbody bash plates, Rock Crawl drive mode and distinctive exterior styling give it serious credentials on rough terrain. But the Tremor doesn’t ask you to choose between capability and family life. Third-row seating, ventilated front seats and a 12-inch touchscreen all come standard. So it’s as comfortable on the school run as it is crossing a wadi.

The Everest V6 Platinum takes a different approach: premium comfort with genuine 4×4 ability underneath. Quilted leather seats, a 12-speaker B&O® audio system and a dual-panel panoramic sunroof make the cabin a refined space for long journeys. Outside, signature LED headlamps deliver crisp, precise visibility for confident night driving. This is the Everest for drivers who want their weekday commute and weekend adventure to feel equally rewarding.

Complete Versatility Across The Lineup

Across Active, Sport, Tremor and Platinum variants, every Everest sold in the Middle East comes with seven seats, standard 4WD, a 12-inch SYNC® 4 infotainment display with wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, and Ford Co-Pilot360™ active driver assist features.

That breadth matters. Whether you’re drawn to the range-topping V6 or the capable four-cylinder, the fundamentals remain consistent: genuine off-road hardware, room for the whole family and the technology to keep everyone connected and protected.

From the daily school run to cross-country road trips to weekend dunes, the Everest gives Middle East drivers a family 4×4 that doesn’t compromise, irrespective of which variant they choose.
