Now that the next-gen Ford Ranger has been officially unveiled, many turned their heads to the all-new Ford Everest. Both vehicles share the same Ford T6 platform so the new Everest is expected to come with a similar design and features as its pickup truck counterpart.

The Blue Oval company has been mum about what the upcoming midsize SUV will bring to the table. It was recently spotted during a vehicle testing alongside the Ranger and Ranger Raptor in a camouflage, leaving us with nothing but to become even more curious.
Fortunately, YouTuber SRK Designs gave us something to ponder as it posted a render of the 2022 Ford Everest. The front end in the rendered image is taken from the next-gen Ford Ranger’s with few modifications to make it more like an actual Everest.
This could be close to the final look
At the front, the rendered Everest sports an F-150-like appearance thanks to its massive grille and the brand’s signature C-shaped daytime running lights (DRLs). But unlike the next-gen Ranger, SRK Designs went for chrome finishes, creating a premium family vehicle appeal as opposed to the rugged look blacked-out trims give.
The pickup bed was removed in favor of the third-row seats with d-pillars and more windows. Since the vehicle now has an extended top surface, the designer touched on the roof rails which can be used to haul more cargo.
Next-gen Ford Ranger
As said earlier, Ford hasn’t provided the specifications of the new Everest. But if we’ll follow the specs of the next-gen Ranger, then the upcoming midsize SUV could be offered with a larger 3.0-liter turbocharged V6 and a 2.0-liter diesel engine that gets either a single or twin turbos.
One can expect that it shouldn’t take long before the 2022 Ford Everest will make its debut considering that the next-gen Ranger has already been revealed. Once the Everest is unveiled in the metal, we would appreciate seeing the distinctive Ford front end similar to the render.
