PRETORIA, South Africa, 30 April 2019 – The 2019 New Ford Everest features an updated design that emphasizes its overall impression of premium quality, style and sophistication.
“The New Everest communicates rugged off-road capability with a sense of refined artistry that takes Ford’s seven-seater SUV to a new level within the segment,” says Doreen Mashinini, General Manager Marketing at Ford Motor Company of Southern Africa. “With fresh exterior design cues, including a new grille, classy new 20-inch wheels on the Limited model and detail changes for the interior, the Everest is more appealing than ever.”
The refreshed grille introduces a new level of depth to the design through the layering of three distinctive grille bars that exude exclusivity and luxury whilst presenting a sense of strength and robustness.
The lower bumper has been redesigned to accentuate width, incorporating a connected horizontal beam that has been added to the fascia insert, which gives the Everest even greater on-road presence. This gives even greater credence to the Everest’s bold ‘desconstructed architecture’, whilst tensioning the surface language of the front end to strengthen the overall look of the vehicle.
A new 20-inch wheel has been introduced on the range-topping Everest Limited, featuring a modern split spoke design that gives the vehicle a more upmarket and dynamic appearance that naturally complements the proud stance of the Everest.Ford has also upped the ante in terms of overall quality and refinement, employing a more purposeful execution of colours and materials. Stronger contrasting elements are employed with the addition of the secondary grille texture against the chrome bright work.
The accents move from a single-layer satin metallic to a two-layer glossy metallic paint, giving a more liquid-like feel for customers expecting outstanding quality. The wheel accent paints are now darker to further accentuate the machine-cut surface of the alloys, adding more drama and a more premium look to the overall appearance.
A new exterior body colour has been added to the line-up: Diffused Silver is designed as a modern take on the typical luxury beige. It communicates toughness with its added depth and also sophistication with its smooth champagne highlights.
Premium interior
The New Everest provides premium levels of quality, outstanding interior space and maximum versatility – now with a selection of new colour ways, richer materials and design details that emphasize luxury and style throughout.The introduction of the Ebony environment colour changes the ambience of the cabin. The added depth allows the details and bright work to stand out and further aligns the interior to the customer’s expectation for a premium SUV, complemented by a greater selection of soft-touch materials where it counts.
Adding further exclusivity to the cabin is the use of contrast stitching on the Everest Limited, along with shadow chrome finishes, perforated leather and high-quality paints that add further lustre to the upgraded interior.
A bold new crafted gear shifter design for the all-new 10-speed automatic transmission reflects the unquestionable capability of the latest Everest, matched with the latest equipment and technology that Ford vehicles offer.
