ford everest 2023 towing review

The 2023 Ford Everest tows like it means it: braked towing capacity: 3,500 kg with a typical towball download limit: 350 kg, so mind your payload and combined mass when you hitch a big van. Engine choices are stout: 2.0L bi-turbo diesel (about 154 kW/500 Nm) or 3.0L V6 turbo-diesel (about 184 kW/600 Nm); the V6 feels more relaxed at highway speeds. Towing tech is on-point, with an available integrated trailer brake controller, Tow/Haul mode, and trailer sway control to keep things tidy. BLIS with trailer coverage and a clear camera setup help you avoid turning the caravan into modern art at the servo. Real-world tip: at or near 3.5 tonnes, payload shrinks fast—pack light, distribute weight properly, and mind your tyre pressures. Consult official documentation for exact figures.
