The Ford Everest BiTurbo Sport is the most technologically advanced seven-seat family SUV in South Africa under R800,000. The twin-turbo diesel produces 154kW and 500Nm — more than enough to haul seven passengers and their luggage over the Drakensberg. The 10.1-inch portrait touchscreen, panoramic sunroof and terrain management system make it genuinely sophisticated.
The verdict
A very strong family SUV that combines real off-road capability with premium interior features. The Ranger-based platform provides reliability credentials that Toyota Fortuner owners have enjoyed for years — now available in a more refined package.
