Ford Everest Platinum: The Ultimate Family Road Trip Companion
Long road trips with the family often mean compromise. Some sacrifice comfort, others wrestle with storage and many settle for average in-car entertainment. But, the new Ford Everest Platinum flips the script, offering a seamless fusion of luxury, technology and adventure-ready capability.
Technology That Keeps You Connected
At the heart of the Everest Platinum is SYNC®4A, a cutting-edge in-vehicle communication and entertainment system that redefines connectivity. Furthermore, the 12-inch touchscreen serves as the command centre. It offers intuitive navigation with wireless smartphone integration. So, whether it’s accessing your favourite playlist, setting a new navigation route or managing vehicle settings, the Everest makes multitasking effortless.
360 Degrees of Confidence
Navigating through tight spaces or tricky terrain is a breeze with the 360-degree camera. The large centre display allows drivers to toggle between multiple camera views. Therefore, you are provided with a top-down bird’s-eye perspective, a 180-degree front and rear split view and even a front off-road camera. Whether you’re reversing with a trailer or tackling a tight parking spot, visibility is second to none. Evidently, this is an exclusive perk of the Platinum trim.
Room for Everyone, Comfort for All
A true road trip warrior, the Everest Platinum boasts three spacious rows of seating that prioritise passenger comfort. The third row isn’t just an afterthought. In fact, it’s been designed with extra legroom, improved seating and overhead vents to ensure rear passengers stay cool and comfortable.
Furthermore, adding to the sense of openness is the Panoramic Roof, flooding the cabin with natural light and making every journey feel like an adventure. Whether you’re cruising through the Karoo or hugging the coastal roads of the Garden Route, the Everest Platinum ensures that every passenger – driver included – enjoys the journey.
A Symphony on Wheels: Bang & Olufsen Sound System
No road trip is complete without the perfect playlist and the Bang & Olufsen (B&O) audio system transforms the Everest Platinum into a mobile concert hall. Boasting a 10-speaker setup, including a subwoofer and 675-watt amplifier, this premium sound system delivers premium beats. With a deep bass, crisp trebles and balanced mid-ranges, it immerses every passenger in rich, high-fidelity sound.
Also, the system offers four distinct sound modes – Natural, Relaxed, Vocal and Energetic. This allows drivers and passengers to tailor their listening experience. With a 5-band equaliser and dedicated subwoofer controls, audiophiles will appreciate the precision tuning that ensures no note is lost, no matter where you sit.
Smart Safety and Adaptive Convenience
Of course, long journeys demand more than just comfort. They require peace of mind too. The Intelligent Adaptive Cruise Control (iACC) with Lane Centring makes highway driving effortless. iACC maintains a safe following distance, while Stop & Go functionality slows the vehicle down if traffic ahead halts.
From cutting-edge technology to family-friendly comfort, the Ford Everest Platinum is the ideal road trip companion. With its spacious and well-appointed interior, class-leading connectivity features and concert-quality audio, this SUV makes every journey as exciting as the destination. Whether you’re heading off the beaten track or embarking on a cross-country adventure, the Everest Platinum ensures that you travel in luxury, style and absolute confidence.
