Everyone knows the Ford Everest as the 7-seater SUV companion to the Ford Ranger, being based on the same ladder frame chassis and TDCi engines, so when the Ranger gets a facelift it’s not surprising that the Everest follows suit in keeping the same family look at the new Ranger.
This facelifted 2009 edition of the Ford Everest continues to be available with either a 2.5 litre turbodiesel with 143 PS, or a 3.0 litre turbodiesel with 156 PS. Both engines are available with 5-speed automatics while the 2.5 litre engine also has the option for a 5-speed manual. All variants feature a shift-on-the-fly 4WD-2WD selection system.
The retail prices for the new facelifted Ford Everest (imported from Ford’s Rayong plant in Thailand) in Peninsular Malaysia are RM145,888 for the 2.5L XLT (Manual), RM156,888 for the 2.5L XLT (Automatic) and RM169,888 for the 3.0L XLT (Automatic). The 4X2 version seems to be missing from the new line-up.
The prices for Sabah and Sarawak are RM149,388, RM160,388 and RM173,388 for the 2.5 M, 2.5 A and 3.0 A respectively. All prices quoted exclude road tax, insurance and registration.

prior facelifted Ranger looks better..fight with Mit Pajero?
wonder what is the torque like for the 3.0L TDCi?
380Nm
no matter how it change, it still doesnt help. the dated design Ranger need to be replaced by the all new model!
super ugly
Ugly , Uninspiring & Overpriced
i dunno…
the aero looklike headlamp doesn't suit the boxy body Ford Everest
i wonder whether this is as good as the montero sport
this Everest looks very modern….10 years ago, that is
The core brand pillar of this vehicle is a genuine, multipurpose 4×4 SUV, unlike the Pajero which operates on a softer suspension and is more of a passenger vehicle, the Everest is more hardcore, workhorse and multi-use. Looks will not be the main selling point of the Everest, and never was. It's what's underneath the Everest that counts and that is why Ford has repeat buyers from the 1st generation Everest coming back to them. In countries like Indonesia, Vietnam and Philippines where they don't have silly taxes, it is selling very well.
In Philippines, I think sales is peaking up. Looks pretty nice and FORD is design as they said tough! I test drove and I seated at the 3rd row to test if it is bouncy, only 4 pax inside, 1 in the mid row and 2 in front. I didn't feel bouncy effect. Looks pretty nice and attractive, it would kill the pajero sport and fortuner as far as the style, performance, strength and ruggedness are concern.
I wish one day Explorer and Expedition will penetrate Malaysia Market….I wish
