2027 Ford Everest Redesign and Update Plan

Exterior & Interior

Inside, the 2027 Everest takes a huge leap forward in refinement and features. The dashboard now houses a large 13-inch vertically mounted infotainment screen using Ford’s latest SYNC 5 software. It features real-time navigation with off-road mapping, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, voice-activated controls, and over-the-air updates. Paired with a 12.4-inch digital driver display, the Everest now feels fully digital but remains intuitive.

The layout is clean, horizontal, and ergonomic. The materials have been upgraded across the board—soft-touch leather on the dash, brushed aluminum trims, optional woodgrain inserts, and contrast stitching on the seats and steering wheel. Ford now offers heated and ventilated front seats as standard on most trims, with optional massaging functions and memory settings on top-tier variants like the Platinum.

Rear passengers benefit from redesigned second-row seats with improved recline and slide functions. There’s now more legroom and headroom due to the longer wheelbase. Third-row access is easier, and even adults can now ride back there more comfortably. USB-C ports are available in all rows, along with rear climate controls and ceiling-mounted air vents. Cargo capacity with all seats folded flat reaches up to 2,100 liters, making this a highly practical SUV for large families or serious gear-haulers.

The new Everest has shed its conservative styling for something more modern and muscular. From the front, the bold grille with satin chrome or black mesh inserts (depending on trim) is flanked by new adaptive matrix LED headlights that automatically level, adjust beam patterns, and even curve with the road. The squared-off wheel arches and taller hood add visual strength, while subtle body lines give it character without being overly busy.

On the sides, integrated roof rails and squared-off window graphics give the Everest a truck-like but premium SUV vibe. Optional 21-inch alloy wheels with off-road-rated tires are now available, depending on trim level. A powered side step that deploys when doors open adds convenience and luxury at once. Rear privacy glass, blacked-out mirror caps, and chrome delete packages give customers flexibility in personalizing the Everest’s appearance.

At the rear, the 2027 model now features full-width LED tail lamps and a tailgate with sculpted edges that improve airflow. The rear bumper integrates high-mounted exhaust tips and improved rear departure angles. A powered tailgate is standard on higher trims, and towing hardware has been neatly integrated under a redesigned bumper for a cleaner, more upscale look, even when fully equipped for heavy hauling.

The exterior is completely reworked with a more upright and aggressive stance. It now mirrors the design cues from the latest Ranger pickup, including C-clamp LED daytime running lights, a wider front grille with signature Ford detailing, and a stronger front bumper design. The boxier proportions and increased width give it a tougher road presence, while improved aerodynamics balance function with form. This SUV is still made for serious off-road use, but now it looks just as good parked in front of a high-end hotel as it does at the foot of a mountain trail.

Dimensionally, the 2027 Everest is slightly longer and wider than before. The wheelbase has increased, giving it better interior space and ride stability. Ground clearance has been raised, and water fording depth now reaches up to 800mm—showing that Ford hasn’t compromised its trail capability. The chassis has also been stiffened, with a more refined suspension tune for a smoother ride both on- and off-road. 2027 Ford Everest Review

2027 Ford Everest Specs

Engine & Performance

Ford continues to offer a wide range of engine options for the 2027 Everest, with a focus on torque, capability, and efficiency. The entry-level diesel is a revised 2.0-liter bi-turbo four-cylinder producing 207 horsepower and 500Nm of torque, mated to a smooth-shifting 10-speed automatic transmission. It’s ideal for urban use and highway travel, offering strong pulling power and decent fuel economy.

For those seeking more grunt, Ford now offers its proven 3.0-liter V6 turbo-diesel in high-spec models, delivering 247 horsepower and a massive 600Nm of torque. This engine gives the Everest serious towing muscle (up to 3,500kg braked) and is paired with a full-time 4WD system and electronic locking rear differential. New terrain modes—sand, rock, snow, mud—adjust throttle response, gearing, and traction control for optimal grip no matter the surface.

An electrified powertrain is also on the horizon. Ford is working on a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) Everest variant expected to debut by mid-2027, combining a 2.3-liter turbo-petrol engine with an electric motor for a combined output near 320 horsepower. The expected all-electric range is around 50 kilometers, ideal for city commutes with zero emissions. This move will put the Everest squarely in line with evolving emission regulations and eco-conscious buyers.

2027 Ford Everest Safety Features

The 2027 Everest is packed with Ford’s Co-Pilot360 Advanced safety suite. Standard features include pre-collision assist with automatic emergency braking, lane keeping system, blind-spot monitoring with trailer coverage, rear cross-traffic alert, and adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go functionality. The SUV now adds intelligent speed assist, evasive steering assist, and a driver attention monitoring system with real-time alerts.

A 360-degree camera with off-road overlays, hill descent control, and a new transparent underbody view (like a digital skid plate) help tackle technical terrain. For urban peace of mind, rear automated braking and advanced park assist are also standard on higher trims. Eight airbags—including curtain airbags for all three rows—help ensure maximum occupant safety in every seat.

2027 Ford Everest Release Date & Price

Fuel efficiency varies by engine. The 2.0L bi-turbo diesel averages around 7.2L/100km, while the V6 diesel comes in at 8.5L/100km combined. The upcoming PHEV version is expected to deliver under 3.0L/100km when using mostly electric power.

Pricing starts at approximately $52,000 AUD for the base Ambiente trim, rising to over $80,000 AUD for the Platinum V6. Global production starts in late 2026, with deliveries beginning Q1 2027 across Australia, Asia, and select global markets. 2027 Ford Everest Review
