Given its price, in a sense you could argue the Everest deserves a better engine than the five-cylinder diesel under the bonnet. In our comparison of Everest against Prado, the Toyota had the quieter of the two powerplants, but the Ford provided more power and torque. That was an off-road scenario of course.
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.
A heated steering wheel is now standard. And if you opt for the Executive package on the Premium Plus trim, additional leather trim is now included.We would choose the more expensive Prestige trim so that we can get the SQ7’s $5900 S Sport package, which adds desirable performance enhancements such as a sport rear differential and Audi’s Active Roll Stabilization system. This brings the SQ7’s price close to six figures, but the extras are well worth the money.
Pros Impressively quick acceleration, athletic chassis, high-end cabin with room for seven.
Cons Isn't particularly fuel efficient, options quickly escalate to a six-figure price tag, all-digital dash layout may irk some drivers.

CONS Cramped third-row seats Infotainment system can be distracting to use
