Ford Australia has ripped the covers off a limited-run Everest variant – the Black Edition – with the first customer deliveries of the seven-seater expected to start rolling out from July 2025.

The Everest Black Edition is listed with a driveaway price of $69,000, with order books now open and stock limited to just 750 units.

This $69K price tag makes the Black Edition approximately $2000 dearer than the Everest Trend on which it is based on, which is currently listed at $67,040. The Black Edition sits below the V6-powered Sport ($74,640), Tremor ($76,590), and Wildtrak ($76,950) on the model hierarchy.

Like the Everest Trend, the Black Edition is powered by the 2.0-litre four-cylinder bi-turbo diesel engine, which produces 154kW and 500Nm. It’s paired to a 10-speed automatic transmission and full-time 4WD system complemented by a locking rear diff.

The Black Edition stands out from the Trend courtesy of the inclusion of black aesthetics: roof rails; side steps; front grille; ‘EVEREST’ hood lettering; ‘EVEREST’ interior door sill plates; side mirrors; and door handles. It’s also equipped with black 18-inch alloy wheels with 255/65R18 all-terrain tyres, as well as a black 18-inch spare alloy wheel.

“Packed with family-favourite features and full-time 4WD, Everest Black Edition builds on the proven strengths of the Everest, adding a distinctive blacked-out appearance that underscores the suite of interior and advanced driver-assist features that has made the Everest the pick of the segment,” said Ambrose Henderson, Director of Marketing, Ford Australia.

“The Black Edition is the seventh variant of the Everest family – giving motorists more choice to suit their needs—and with a $69,000 drive away price , it delivers outstanding value for Australians who demand more from their SUV.”

Three optional packs are also available upon purchase: the Premium Seat pack ($1200), the Towing pack ($1950) and the Touring pack ($2900). The Premium Seat pack adds heated and ventilated front driver (10-way power adjustment) and passenger (8-way power adjustment) seats. The Towing pack adds a tow bar and hitch, an integrated electric trailer brake controller, and a 12-pin wiring harness. The Touring pack adds a 360-degree camera and Ford’s Pro Trailer Backup Assist.

The Everest Black Edition is available to order now.
