After a brief hiatus, the Ford Everest Wildtrak is back for 2025 (2025.5 model year) with some mild updates, giving Australian buyers who want a large three-row SUV for towing and serious off-roading an attractive option.
Limited to 950 units locally as a special edition, the Australian-developed Everest Wildtrak is priced from $76,950 before on-road costs are added. Available exclusively with the 3.0-litre turbo-diesel V6, generating 184kW and 600Nm, mated to a 10-speed automatic transmission, the full-time all-wheel drive system features differential locking and switchable terrain modes.
George Thomas, the product and retail marketing manager for Everest had the following to say:
“For the past 16 years, Wildtrak has been synonymous with the Ranger brand, and once again we are offering customers in Australia the opportunity to enjoy the same legendary reputation as the ute, but in a practical and luxurious SUV body style.”
The 2025 Ford Everest Wlidtrak comes with two-tone 20-inch alloy wheels with all-season tyres, with a more hardcore, 18-inch alloy wheel shod with more off-road-focused wheels available as a no-cost option.
Externally, it will be marked with special badging, a unique front grille and bumper treatment, chrome running bars, a unique ‘Luxe Yellow’ paint colour at additional cost, as well as wheel lip moulding and mirror caps.
Inside, a panoramic roof, 360-degree camera, ambient lighting and a 400W power inverter in the rear of the centre console come as standard. Unique black leather seats with ‘WILDTRAK’ embossed with orange stitching are also part of this package.
First deliveries are expected in the first quarter of this year, which means any time between now and the end of March.
