During the 24th Henry Ford Awards the brand also introduced two new vehicles, particularly the Special Edition of the Ford Everest and Ford Ranger.
The new Everest Sport Special Edition takes its features from the Everest Sport variant with a number of aesthetic enhancements. It is decked out in black details – a black roof and spoiler (decal wrapped), 20” black alloy wheels with striking red inserts, and bold “Everest” hood lettering to boot. The Everest Sport Special Edition comes in Aluminum Metallic and Snowflake White Pearl colors and at a starting retail price of P2,194,000.
“The Everest Sport Special Edition caters to customers who are looking for a modern and sophisticated 7-seater SUV without compromising safety, technology, and efficient performance,” says Ryan Lorenzo, director, Retail Product Marketing and Business Growth, Ford Philippines. “We are excited to give our customers another Everest variant that they will surely love. It will be offered in limited quantity only, so we invite all SUV enthusiasts to check out the Everest Sport Special Edition in Ford dealerships soon.”
The Everest Sport Special Edition is all about blending functionality with distinctive design. Aside from the prominent black accents, it features the iconic C-Clamp LED daytime running lamps of the Next-Generation Everest models. It also features the same spacious interiors, combination of leather and synthetic leather seats with Sport styling, 10” colored touch screen with SYNC 4A connectivity, wireless charging pad, and power liftgate for comfort and convenience – be it the driver or the passenger.
Under the hood, the Everest Sport Special Edition roars to life with a 2.0L Turbo Diesel engine with a max torque of 405Nm and power of up to 170 PS mated to a 6-Speed Automatic Transmission and a 4×2 drivetrain – delivering on the performance Filipinos have come to expect of a Ford Everest.
Staying true to its adventure SUV reputation, the Everest Sport Special Edition also boasts a full suite of safety features like the Electronic Stability Program with Traction Control System, Hill Launch Assist & Roll Over Mitigation, 7 airbags, and adjustable speed limiter.
The Everest Sport Special Edition comes with a 5-year vehicle warranty for a worry-free ownership experience. It is also equipped with FordPass, allowing users to enjoy remote access like remote door lock & unlock, remote engine stop & start with pre-cooling, vehicle locator, and vehicle status.
The Ranger Sport Special Edition comes equipped with a long leg sports bar that extends from the cab toward the rear. This feature not only gives the pickup a more rugged and assertive profile, but also adds protective support when hauling heavy or uneven cargo. In addition, retractable cup holders are now integrated into the instrument panel, which is a practical and convenient feature that many Ford customers are calling for.
Aside from the functional accessories, the Ranger Sport Special Edition features the tried-and-tested solid engineering found in every Ford Ranger. A 2.0L Single Turbo Diesel engine paired with a six-speed automatic transmission delivers a dependable 170 PS and 405Nm output every time and everywhere. Available in both 4×2 and 4×4 configurations, the Ranger Sport Special Edition ensures one is ready to take on the rough-and-tumble conditions of any terrain.
In addition, the Ranger Sport Special Edition’s front suspension double wishbone chassis and rear suspension leaf spring combine to provide a smooth driving experience no matter the road conditions ahead. Front ventilated disc and rear drum brakes on 18-inch alloy wheels ensure your stopping power will always be ready and more than you need.
Inside, the spacious cabin carries forward the same driver-focused cockpit found across the entire Ranger family, including an 8-inch digital instrument cluster that befits the modern road warrior. This includes a 10-inch touchscreen panel with smartphone integration via Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
“The Ranger portfolio continues to grow with the Ranger Sport Special Edition – perfect for pickup customers who are looking for a more functional truck for loading or hauling, but with the same features found on and dynamic look of the Ranger Sport,” shares Ryan Lorenzo, director, Retail Product Marketing and Business Growth, Ford Philippines. “With the Ranger Sport Special Edition, we are making it standard in every Ford Ranger relevant features such as the sports bar and cup holder that our customers are looking for.”
The Ranger Sport Special Edition is available at a starting retail price of P1,529,000 and comes in Absolute Black, Arctic White, Blue Lightning, and Meteor Grey colors. It comes with a 5-year vehicle warranty for a worry-free ownership experience. It is also equipped with FordPass, allowing users to enjoy remote access like remote door lock & unlock, remote engine stop & start with pre-cooling, vehicle locator, and vehicle status.
