2023 Ford Everest price and specs: New 4×2 variant added, prices to rise next year
The Ford Everest will be more expensive when an updated '2023.5' model arrives next year, with a new Sport 4x2 variant set to join the line-up, and minor changes for other models.
- 2023 Ford Everest pricing and specifications
- Everest Sport 4x2 four-cylinder added below V6
- Production to start in March 2023
- Priced from $53,290 plus on-road costs, up $300 to $649
The 2023 Ford Everest line-up is set to expand, with a new flagship 4x2 variant alongside price increases across all model grades.
Arriving in showrooms last month, the second-generation Everest has already received its first update – dubbed 'Model Year 2023.5' in Ford speak – which is due to begin production in March 2023.
Ford Australia has advised price rises of $300 to $649 for the updated 2023.5 range, to account for mild specification changes.
Buyers who order and choose to take delivery of a vehicle built from March 2023 onwards will be hit with the price rises, and gain the specification changes – even if they placed their order before the Model Year 2023.5 changes were announced.
Current prices for the Ford Everest – which apply to Model Year 2022 vehicles – will continue to be applied to vehicles built before the end of February next year.
Prices for the Ford Everest’s 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbo-diesel Ambiente and Trend variants are set to increase by $300, with the entry-level Ambiente 4x2 starting from $53,290 plus on-road costs, while the 4x4 sits $5000 above this.
The 3.0-litre turbo-diesel V6-powered Ford Everest Sport and Platinum are set to undergo price increases of $500 and $649 respectively, pushing the flagship grade up to $77,530 plus on-road costs (including Luxury Car Tax).
In response to high demand for the Everest Sport V6, Ford has announced a rear-wheel drive Sport 4x2 variant will join the line-up from March production, with power coming from the smaller 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbo-diesel.
The Everest Sport 4x2 will be priced from $62,790 plus on-road costs – $6800 less than the Everest Sport 4x4, with buyers missing out on the more powerful V6 engine and all-wheel drive.
Engine outputs are unchanged for 2023, with the Ford Everest’s 2.0-litre twin-turbocharged diesel four-cylinder continuing to produce 154kW and 500Nm, while the 3.0-litre single-turbo diesel V6 develops 184kW and 600Nm.
Both engines are mated to a 10-speed automatic transmission, with power sent to the rear wheels in 4x2 variants, or to all four wheels in 4x4 grades.
Alongside the new variant, the flagship Platinum has gained a black roof and steel underbody protection as standard, while the Touring Pack optional on Trend and Sport four-wheel-drive variants now includes black stand-off roof rails.
The 2023 Ford Everest is expected in Australian showrooms towards the middle of 2023, with production starting in March next year. Wait times on existing models are already up to 10 months on some grades.
