Verdict
At RM316,888, the Ford Everest 4x4 Sport is the sensible buy if its 168 hp and 405 Nm are enough for your work and family duties. The RM338,888 Ford Everest 4x4 Wildtrak costs RM22,000 more, but its bi-turbo diesel brings 207 hp and 500 Nm, plus autonomous braking, Bi-LED projector headlamps, a 360-degree camera and auto parking. The Sport fights back with lane-keeping steering correction, adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go and four front parking sensors. For most Malaysian buyers, the Wildtrak’s extra torque and parking hardware justify the step up.
Pick the Ford Everest 4x4 Sport if you want to save RM22,000 and value lane-keeping steering correction plus stop-and-go adaptive cruise control.
Pick the Ford Everest 4x4 Wildtrak if you want 207 hp, 500 Nm, autonomous braking and a 360-degree camera.
