Along with its Ranger ute sibling, Ford has published prices for the new Everest seven-seater in Thailand, hinting at where it’ll land once it launches in Australia this August.
Prices for the new 2023 Ford Everest four-wheel-drive SUV have been revealed for the Thai market, providing our best hint yet as to how much it will cost in Australia, once first customer deliveries commence in August.
At launch, Thai buyers will be able to choose from two Everest model variants in Ford showrooms: a Sport grade with a 2.0-litre single-turbo diesel engine and rear-wheel drive, or a ‘flagship’ Titanium+ with a 2.0-litre twin-turbo diesel engine, four-wheel drive and additional features.
Over equivalent variants in the outgoing 2022 Everest range, prices are up by between 2.4 and 3.1 per cent – applying which to Australian pricing for the current range would suggest price rises of $1700 to $2000, to $61,700 and $75,000 plus on-road costs, despite significantly more technology on offer.
However, it’s worth nothing Thailand’s two-variant range differs to the four models planned for Australia – including cheaper Ambiente and Trend models below the Sport (all with with twin-turbo engines), and a more luxurious Platinum flagship above the Titanium (which won’t be available locally).
The hotly-anticipated 3.0-litre turbo-diesel V6 is also unavailable in Thailand; expect this to command a further premium once it reaches Australia, in the Sport as an option, or standard in the Platinum.
While final prices are yet to confirmed, the new 2023 Everest Ambiente and Trend are likely to draw closer to the $50,090 plus on-road costs of the outgoing 3.2-litre Ambiente 4×2 in Australia – while the Platinum may push beyond the $80,000 mark, with its standard V6.
The current Everest Trend is priced from $57,090 plus on-road costs with the 2.0-litre bi-turbo engine and rear-wheel drive (4×4 adds $5300), rising to $60,090 for the rear-drive, bi-turbo Sport, and $73,190 for the flagship, four-wheel-drive, bi-turbo Titanium.
Prices start from 1,464,000 baht ($AU58,300) for the Sport 4×2, and rise to 1,854,000 baht ($AU73,800) for the Titanium 4×4 – however differing government charges and transport costs – given the Everest is built in Thailand, eliminating the sea shipping needed for Australia – mean direct currency conversions aren’t always accurate.
Due in showrooms in August, pricing for the 2023 Ford Everest range is expected to be announced in the coming weeks. For a deep dive into engines and standard features, click here.
