Ford has ripped the covers off its Everest Tremor, an adventure-bred 4×4 priced at $76,590 (MLP) and boasting upgraded suspension and tyres.

The news comes hot off the back of the revelation of the Ranger Tremor, with the dual-cab ute receiving similar treatment earlier this year.

Much like the Ranger Tremor, the Everest Tremor has received a premium suspension set-up consisting of Bilstein position-sensitive dampers and new springs. Also identical to the Ranger Tremor, the Everest will ride on General Grabber AT3 all-terrain tyres. This suspension and tyre package combines to provide an additional 26mm of ground clearance compared to a stock Everest.

The Everest Tremor is powered by the same 3.0-litre V6 turbo-diesel engine found in Sport and Platinum variants in the regular Everest line-up. That powertrain generates 184kW and 600Nm and runs through a 10-speed automatic transmission. The Everest Tremor is unavailable with the 2.0-litre bi-turbo powertrain.

The Everest Tremor retains the standard vehicle’s maximum braked towing capacity of 3500kg; plus, it benefits from a Rock Crawl drive mode – just like the Ranger Tremor – which is essentially cruise control for off-roading.

“The Everest Tremor answers the call from passionate adventurers who demand even more capability and ruggedness from their SUVs,” said Ambrose Henderson, Marketing Director, Ford Australia.

“With its unique combination of off-road effectiveness, towing capacity, and premium features, the Everest Tremor is ready to tackle any adventure, on or off Australia’s various terrains.”

Premium interior features include Tremor-embossed leather-accented seats; ebony-coloured interior accents; and all-weather floor mats. Tech consists of a selectable drive mode system; Ford’s SYNC4 infotainment system; and a comprehensive suite of safety technologies. Optional extras include ?
